Just bought my 2024 . Picking it up in 2 days.
Congratz man! How does it feel? 🤩
How you like it?
Where did you buy? I’m in California and they are marking them up
Great review did the NC750 justice for sure. I used to blip in neutral all the time and almost in drive a couple times when I first got my 23’. Hard habit to break. Superb commuter and great for high traffic environment. No manual is clutch in traffic.
Hah, no pun intended on that last line? Thanks!
@@DailyMotor was waiting for someone to call it out ha!
Got mine last June as my first moto in 30 years. It is a great beginning / returning rider bike. That DCT is addictive and really lets you concentrate on the ride. I do not miss having to shift. Plenty peppy if you are an old man like me don't speed anyway. I ride mostly empty roads, 30s to 60 mph, get nearly 80 mpg. Wife loves it because I do the small grocery trips. You can put a lot of stuff in that frunk. Seat isn't terrible, but I did order a nice heated custom job from topsellerie in Portugal. I'll probably have a local suspension guy put in a better shock and some emulators up front. Bumps are a bit harsh sometimes. I'm 6'3" and thought the bent angle would be a problem, but although they are really pretzeled on me, I'm never uncomfortable. I didn't even bother putting the drop / adjustable pegs on it yet. Such a solid economical platform I don't mind spending a little to get it closer to perfect. At 6'3", my head is in clean air, so I left stock screen on for now.
I'm saving up for one. It's going to be my first one, for daily commute and some inland roadtrips.
Hey bro, good honest review. I just purchased a 2023 from a guy who loved it, but ended up selling to buy the Goldwing DCT. He said it was addictive to ride, and he was right. Im loving this NC. Put a larger GIVI wind screen on, and a top case. I have fender extenders front and back, handle bar riser, cause Im only 5'8. Grip puppies are the best thing ever !! Im gonna do a review as well. Im up here in Canada. Thanks again for a great review. Cheers Stevo
Can you touch your feet flat on the ground when on the bike
@@alaneidt6835
Yes, flat footed on the 2023. I can’t get enough of this dct. So effortless.
Awesome thanks! I have a deposit on one that will be in next week. Can't wait
When did you start filming in Orange County California? I recognized those roads. Well done, as always.
Fair comment, agree about the suspension, I’ve changed the front springs to progressive springs (approx £100)
I purchased the bike in 2022, fitted crash bars, rear carrier, spots, use it for touring, camping etc.
I will change the rear spring, it doesn’t like pot holes.
Otherwise one of the best bikes I’ve ever had, the engine is canted low and forward carrying the weight low down.
Mines non DCT, so lighter than this bike, but nothing wrong with DCT, I’ve had it on a VFR 1200 (Intercepter ? In the states)
@colinbarber9324 Hi had my NC since 2022, just wanted to ask which springs did you get?
I’m planning to get one as well as soon as I get my helmet and take the class! 😆
I’ve been to many motorcycle dealerships in San Diego. No one sells them. It’s been two years now. Do I still want one? Yes. Can I pay cash up front? Yes. By this point it’s a fantasy bike.
That's sad to hear
Buying mine in a year
I’m saving for one ☝️
I have a 2022 mod, 7000 km now, and with my wife on the back, it is not much power to call home about even in sportmodus, but I just ordered the 15 teeth front-sprocket, so 2 teeth down will take care of that I guess. It maybe do a wheele on the trottle LOL. Enjoy everyone with this bike. It is perfect for all kind of riding.
Bought a used 2019 NC750X, 48 HP version, no DCT.
Solo riding.
Lots of small roads and lots of uphill and downhill where I live.
No Highway riding.
Original sprocket was 17 teeth.
Changed mine to 16 teeth.
Love it!
Huge, huge difference.
Indicated speed on the Display is now "too high" - but that doesn't bother me.
At real GPS speed of 100 km/h the indicated speed is 112 km/h or so.
You mention that you picked the 15 teeth front sprocket.
Sounds like a big step down.
For me: the 16 teeth thing is just great. I Keep the rpm in the range of around 4000. Fantastic.
Fuel consumption still is a dream.
Max speed will be lower now I guess - but I don't know.
120 km/h is in 6th gear still under 4000 rpm...
Good luck with your setup.
Cheers from Germany,
Andreas
Can we order online and they deliver to door dtep?
Where in America are you? The hills and mountains look gorgeous.
Southern California
Too bad it doesn't have a 19 inch front wheel, at least from my perspective. Alaska road conditions make a 17 incher... acceptable, but that's all.
Pretty area, where are you riding?
Orange County, CA
Hi I'm new to motorcycles.do you think that having automatic motorcycle for beginners is a good idea?
Yes, although if you plan on riding regularly and owning many bikes, it's good to learn how to ride manual as well.
It is basically a SUV
Man it's such a hard toss up between this bike and a 2023 V-Strom 650.
This bike after tax title and license will be over 10K in my area, my local dealership has a V-Strom with zero mileage on rebate for $6,900 and that kind of made my mind up.
I might wait a couple years on the NC and see if they put a TFT display and Android connect and then I'll be sold for sure.
I had the v-strom 650 and have rode the nc750. The v-strom looks better, but is much heavier, bigger and wider. Also higher fuel consumption.
Hey there, go for the NC 750......DCT all the way. V strom 650 is just ...well kinda blah really. My opinion. Love my Honda NC 750 DCT...funnest bike ive had since my 2003 Goldwing !
Fuck I didn’t know this was automatic I was thinking about getting one but not now
You can get them as a manual as well, but I don't think anymore in the US. But used models came in both transmissions.
You can change gear yourself using the finger controls either in full manual or to override the automatic (you used to be able to get a foot lever but few people bothered to fit them after they got used to the bike. If you just don’t want a clutch but just want a manual then you can go for the 650s with an e-clutch. But get used to it both BMW, Yamaha and Kawasaki are bringing their own autos or semi autos soon.
That was my thought. I ordered it anyway. Five minutes later I was glad I hadn't been able to order a manual. Wouldn't trade the DCT for anything now.
Typical jobsworth security man. What threat are you in an empty carpark??? I despair of America, that's why I'll never live there.
Charlie, I am shocked an appalled by the thought of an automatic motorcycle. .
Try it before you criticise. I've had DCT's since 2016 (Crosstourer and NC750) and am totally converted.
@@kevinf-b5065 me too, got this exact bike, in Denim blue, 6 months ago and I'm totally loving it! Had ridden manuals for a decade before this.
DCT is the way to go.I have an NC750X DCT 2023 .I also have a far more sporty Z900RS. Honestly the DCT makes life so easy and it's no slouch.
There just seems to be a "macho" bias against DCT, meanwhile most modern bikes have quickshifters anyway.
Most people feel that way...until they get a chance to try a dct, and then they never want go back especially city commuters who deal with stop go grind,
I learned to drive Stick Shift . The first time I drove an automatic car , that was it. I apply the same attitude to Motorbikes.
