well never mind Dick thanks for sharing.

while we're here....
did you manage to test ride the DCT model and if so ,how did you find it in comparison to a geared model.
I wont know as yet till April when they will have a geared demo.

But with less power. I suppose it will also be lighter. I would like to know the power to weight ratio of both

Doesn't look like it will be as big/useful as the ncx.

Red and silver as of now.

 

[Mycool]

You're right frozen! I just looked at Honda USA website...red is here!!! Lets all rejoice

Interesting tid bit, On these bikes the DCT and ABS are only a $1k option.

The tall screen, bags, backrest are all options. So yes, the side cases can/should be removable.

I didn't tell anyone this but I have been sending telepathic messages to Honda corporate of what my next bike should be. I want it to be automatic, like my PCX. I want it to look like a cool like the NC. I want to be able to add accessories in the future like storage in case I want to travel. And most important since I have a 28" inseam, the stock version needs to fit me. And although not a deal-breaker It would be great if it came in Black.

I must not have been the only one wishing for this.

Looks like it will hold a pair of gloves nicely. Ours is bigger!
