Hey there men, women, and all the ships at sea.
My name is Dave and I went ahead and joined this forum prior to buying an NC700x. I have been lurking a short while reading all I could find regarding this new Honda. I am a reentry rider that owned small displacement Japanese motorcycles in the early 1970s, had another small Honda for a short while in 1995, then bought a ST1300 Pan European in 2006. Since 2006 I have amassed about 150,000 miles on the Pan and a 1981 BMW R100 I bought a few months after the Pan. I sold the R100 to make room for a new motorcycle. The NCx is still not released here in the States but I have a deposit on the first manual transmission bike shipped to my dealer. The anticipated release date is 7/20/12 and I can't wait but I must.
I look forward to seeing this forum grow and hope I can share and contribute to the accumulated knowledge of many riders here.
Until I see my new bike I have a few questions. What viscosity oil does Honda recommend using in the engine and how long are the oil change intervals? What brand tires did your bike come equipped with and what does Honda recommend for front/rear tire pressures?
