Hey Folks,
Hopefully I'll be a 2012 NC700X rider soon, just need to work out some details with insurance and financing this week, then I'll get my dealer to ship it in and install all the add-ons. I expect to ride it out end of next week if all goes as planned. Currently riding a 2007 Honda Sabre bought new, that has been a great bike for 36k miles until recently. It has developed a intermittent fueling issue that has cost me almost 500 bucks troubleshooting and it is still not fixed. The dealer will give me a good trade-in for it, even knowing it has issues.
I've done a lot of research that led me to the NC700X and this website had most of if not all the info I needed to decide that the NC700X will my next bike. I'll go with all Hondaline accessories with everything except the upper fairing and will add a after-market radiator guard, hand deflectors and maybe crashbars later.
I'm 54 and grew up on Honda dirt bikes going from a trail 70 to a 125 and then a 250 and rode amatuer motocross for a while until I picked up a KZ900 cheap when I was 17. That Kawa was fast! I rode it for 6 months and had a blast shutting down the local law unti they finally caught me
I got off light and was allowed to enter the service instead of jail. Fast forward thru several jobs, sport cars and marriages to 2007 and I started riding again on the Sabre.
Thanks!
