Hi, I just bought a used NC700X DCT ABS. I pick it up Tuesday. I haven't ridden a motorcycle since I got my endorsement about 12 years ago. But I own a vintage Lambretta scooter that I ride. Actually, I discovered that my M endorsement didn't transfer during my last move between states, so that's something I get to sort out tomorrow.
I'm looking to add a center stand, USB power and some luggage. I'm going to use this for commuting mainly with some weekend trips.
Cheers!
Congratulations on the NC and welcome to the forum.Thanks. I am looking for better gloves and ordered a Klim jacket. What do you do about your pants when you commute? Just wear trousers?
I saw a bike at Chase Field with a neat cover that went from the handlebars to the seat, I'll get one of those. Any advice on side luggage? I don't like the looks of top boxes. Cheers.
Hi, Matt from Cleveland, Ohio checking in....
I love my Klim gear. Apex Air jacket owner here, love it. I don't commute so no recommendation on over-pants.Thanks. I am looking for better gloves and ordered a Klim jacket. What do you do about your pants when you commute? Just wear trousers?

Obligatory new member post. Already used this forum to evaluate whether I should purchase this bike so thank you all!
2015 NC700X manual - new old stock. Picked it up out of state so my first ride was 250 miles covering three states!

Last bike was a 1982 Honda Nighthawk 450 that I sold 20 years ago after my son was born. Wife was not thrilled with the purchase but her 'single mother raising kids' argument lost its teeth after our youngest moved out.
