Seen in the Wild

[TNHoosier]

Spotted a '21+ NC750X today 9/20/2022 travelling north out of Deals Gap on 129 around noon. It had aluminum panniers. I was parked under a shelter next to the water eating lunch and talking to another rider.

Anyone from the forum?

The pic above was taken in downtown Rome and is of course an NC750X.


The pic below was also in downtown Rome and I’m unsure if the red bike is a 21 or 22 NC.



The NC750X seems to be very popular here. In this short drive I spotted at least 7 NCs.

I’d estimate that about 12-15% of all vehicles are motorcycles (inclusive of scooters which dominate the MC universe here in Rome).

Bikes have always been used as a major form of transportation in Europe. In North America they’re Primarily toys which explains why we get so many impractical bikes here that are useless as everyday transportation.

The red one is a CB500X (2019 ?)

The red one is a CB500X (2019 ?)

That was my second guess. Thank you.
