Hands down best all round bike out there when comparing fuel economy, ease of maintenance, storage capacity. Made for riders that are mature enough to be comfortable on a 50 hp bike and make up the rest with skill and confidence. Safe rides and travels 👍🏍
can't disagree on that, but i need to make up my lack of skill and confidence with raw horsepower and torque :P but yes, it's probably one of the most "decent" bikes out there though i prefer a bike that can scare me a little from time to time ;)
270 degree crank, firing order blabla and a nice exhaust can really make that engine sing. Other than that, it's pretty much the Toyota Prius of motorcycles
I fucking love the storage compartment, don't know how I feel about the gas cap being under the pillion seat though. I believe the actual tank is quite low down in the bike which I dig. It's too quiet though... c:
waaaay too quiet... but that damn storage compartment fits a full sized helmet, it's so damn useful, sadly, the only "special" thing about the bike, besides that it's just really civilized... almost boring xD
I have my eyes on a 2013 model of the NC700S in Belgium. I’m upgrading from a 125cc to my first “big” bike. The only thing is that it already has 49.000 km on the counter, do you think that should be an issue? The thing has to cost 3.500 euros. Bedankt.
Seeing as it's a Honda, and the fact that it's quite a tame bike, it shouldn't be much of an issue. Commenting on a bike that I'm not able to see is not easy though, the best advice I can give is that it's better to miss out on a good deal, than going for it and buying a bike that has some hidden issues
Hey man, noticed the Dutch license plates, what province you in? Bought a very neat nc700s recently, am loving it on the Dutch roads so far! (Btw, couldn't notice from your accent, or lack thereof ;)
Absolutely hated the rides I had on this bike, mostly as a loaner when my own bike was in for service. Wouldn't buy one myself, ever, but that's just me I guess. It's sufficient and very adequate for who and what it's made for and thus marketed as such. It's a Honda, that says it al really. Safe, kind of boring to ride, good quality, but without being stellar or exciting in any way. Prius? Yeah, same league... LOL.
14L, and it's really fuel efficient, went to Amsterdam and back from Woerden, which is a total of about 75 km, used around 2,5L of fuel... 1/30 L/km which, compared to my own bike is reeeeaaaaallllyyy fuel efficient :P full tank of gas would get you around 400km

Lol...I achieve that by occasionally closing my eyes for a few seconds while overtaking in a blind corner....😬🏍👍

hahaha yep, no one really "wants" to ride it, but once you do, you realize it's not as bad as it seems :P
I wouldn't mind tbh, there's one with red accents at my fuckulty and it looks purrty good
But no batteries 😉

It's a great subtil machine, I had one!

Utrecht, and the dutch roads are pretty good, just a little flat 😋 and the accent is a weird mix of everything i picked up over the past 22 years

couldnt have said it any better :p it's a motorcycle. and that's all there is to say about it
Very big compartment, not much fuelstorage then?

Compared to my bike, that is also very fuel efficient :O
and that's with my "normal" riding style, so 1/35 should be possible, easily
