Hello everyone,
I have been thinking about getting an NC 750X DCT for a while, and currently own a Yamaha X Max ( Iron Max) 400, twist and go scooter, which I have owned from new for around 18 months.
I have agreed a part ex deal - the Yam against a one owner, Blue 2019 NC 750X DCT, with only1700 miles on the clock, subject to me liking the bike on a test ride.
The test ride is on Sat, in a couple of days time. I have owned an NC 750S ( manual ) a few years back, but did not like the very hard front suspension. I believe the forks on the X model, 2019 year, may be more comfortable. I liked the engine power ( of the 750S ) performance, economy and general quality of that bike but found the suspension too hard for my liking.
I am a long time motorcyclist, and now prefer a bike without a clutch lever to operate. The NC 750S had plenty of power for me, and is ample for legal UK speeds, plus it handled very well.
The test ride was supposed to be yesterday, but the weather was terrible for motorcycling - strong winds, heavy rain, and persistent thunder and lightening, so the dealer agreed to my request to change the test ride to Sat, when I hope the weather be be a bit better.
I have my route arranged, and hope I like the bike, and will do the deal if I do.
