    DCT reliability

    Thank you for the replies everyone. Looks like the concern i had is nothing to worry about. The NC is a wonderful bike and a joy to ride. Even tho weather is still decent here i have put bike away for winter. Did approx 6700km this year. First service was at 1k km. Before putting it away i did...

    DCT reliability

    The 2016 NC750X was the first time the DCT was available in Canada. The differences i can see are: the seat is redesigned. More flat and sloped toward rear compared to more U shaped on the 2016. 2018 has 2 modes of traction control plus can turn off 2018 has a raise of rev limiter from...

    DCT reliability

    heh heh. Relax Dreamer. If you read my full OP you will see that yes i did trade the 2016 NC in on the Yamaha in 2017. In 2018 i traded the Yamaha in for a new NC750X DCT. I do love the NC and it is a Honda so on the one hand i figured it would be ok after all. And if there were many problems...

    DCT reliability

    From reading the thread about DCT problems and looking over the pictures of the sheer number of parts / sensors / devices used to keep the DCT working, gives me a bit of concern about the long term reliability of the DCT bikes. Back in April 2017 i did sell my 2016 NC750X DCT for a Yamaha...

    NC750X (2017) LED lights are weak

    something wrong with your bike? Are yours as bright as mine? 2018 NC750X. This is the Low beam headlight only. Turn signals just the running light. No turn signal is activated in this picture. I had to move to get a side angle picture as head on was too bright for the camera

    adjustable windscreen

    hello Pianoman. Seems like a good modification. But for me, i do not see me constantly changing my screen. Once i have it set i will leave it alone. Also with the nobs it does make it easy for someone to remove (steal) your screen.

    adjustable windscreen

    Got the NC in May of this year. My only real complaint was the wind noise. A painful ROAR mostly in my right ear. Wind itself does not bother me. I came from a naked Yamaha FZ07 and i had a 2014 NC750S (tiny screen) and was fine even at 160kph I had been able to manage the noise for the most...

    official Honda centre stand - defect

    Stopped in at dealer first thing this morning. They installed the replacement stand. All is good now Was disappointed last week so did not think to ask which bolt broke. But i asked mechanic today, (same mechanic as last week) said it was the bolt with the spring that broke on other one.

    official Honda centre stand - defect

    Be careful if you get and install yourself the official Honda Centre stand. I ordered one a week ago and arranged to have it installed by dealer on August 10. I considered doing it myself but glad i did not. Dealer installed it. Tested its action and SNAP. The bolt broke. They ordering my...

    Feels lime I'm going over bumpy road all the time

    old thread but i had a similar issue on my former 2016 NC750X. At slow speed a steady thump-thump-thump. Like you are going over road ruts or grooves. Put it down to the bridge i was going across. Closer to home i stopped and had a quick look at the bike. Did not see anything. Next morning...

    Total biker newbie - got myself in trouble

    oil surface tension works great. I remove dipstick. Wipe clean. Insert, then pull bike upright for a few seconds. Let it back down on the side stand. Remove dip stick and check oil. There is enough surface tension for an accurate reading.

    Honda USA website updated to add the 2018 NC750X

    looks same as mine. Does not have the showa caps. So either they have the innards but not the caps or just no Showa. But i am guessing no to Showa as every other bike that has these have the Showa caps.

    Honda USA website updated to add the 2018 NC750X

    Thanks for the pictures 670cc. One thing i want to know. One of your pictures just caught the edge of the top of the forks. Does the USA bike have the Showa Dual Bending forks?
