What do you do with a bike as
revolutionary as the class-leading Honda NC750X? How about make it even better, with a
list of updates and
improvements that put it even further out in front? The
best parts haven’t changed:
During the week the NC700X is an awesome commuter,
while on the weekend it lets you go
exploring in the country, or carve up a
twisty canyon road. Its parallel-twin engine offers a
generous helping of
useable torque, and the seating position makes sense for a ride around
the
block or around your favorite continent.
So
what’s new? How about a larger windscreen for better weather protection;
new,
tougher-looking bodywork; a new front-brake caliper; and a new pentagonal
muffler for a
sharper look and a sound you’re bound to love. The new luggage
compartment holds even
more, a full 22 liters, and comes with a new “utility
rail” and a storage hook
inside the lid. Available in two versions—the
conventional six-speed, manual-clutch
transmission remains one choice, while a
second version is available with an updated version
of Honda’s exclusive
automatic Dual-Clutch Transmission (DCT). Even the tires are
easier to service,
thanks to new “L”-shaped valve stems.
