6 years with mine and every ride is a treat. never less than 75 mpg (US). Handling, breaking, power, comfort, looks, reliability! all superb. 57 years riding 60+ bikes owned several more ridden and the NC still amazes me.

Same here, 40 years of riding and in my opinion the Honda NC bikes are the most versatile bike if you take everything into consideration. A real Jack of all trades. I have two and they're here to stay. Safe rides 🙏🏍👍

Ray - looking for a versatile adventure-based bike platform (don't mind making some mods from stock). Will be used on long distance touring on dirt roads, forestry service roads in Arizona. Compacted dirt roads, but with potholes and the occassional obstacle - ... nothing 'offroad' though - In your experience is this bike a good fit for that use? Seems like the engine design and higher torque at low RPM is a love-it-or-hate-it-thing. But for me coming from a big bore V-Twin past, I think I'd be ok with that but haven't ridden one yet. Your thoughts?

I'm impressed with that 700! You did a good job on cratering the Tdub. Great video keep up the good work.

The tdubs will rise again like a phoenix from the ashes!

That was fun to watch . thanks for editing , and sharing . I love where you live. I have been looking into a nc700x as a commuter with the occasional dirt venture. Really enjoyed the video though.

Thanks much, the best off road look at this bike that I’ve found.

With respect to adventure bike videos, this one wins best attitude.

Thanks for sharing your video! Love my NC700X as well!

Loved the video. Safe riding!

You got a great dad brother . God bless you both .

Oh man that motor!!! Wow I couldn't beleive it. I am glad you showed us the video of the motor at the end so we could all see the damage. Sorry bud! Keep up the videos nice job. It's my entertainment lately😍

I too own a 700x, just finding out how nice the nc sounds with a new exhaust. Feel obligated to upgrade now haha. Enjoyed your video and great neighbors ;)

That well used engine.. Hope you get your dub back on the trail soon. Great video. Whitney portal road looked a little sketchy with the ice, good idea to go another day.

Big shout out to his Dad and his dad's buddy for helping him out. Great vid.

And on the 705s . great tire but I think they are 70% on and 30% off road . loved the video !

I own one , a 2012 nc 700 x, the best bike ever. No problemo..... Meilleurs voeux de France !

I own one. It is a great bike 700X NC 6 gear, shifter TopSpeed 113 mph. Every day bike unbelievable performance. great for traffic off-road country, roads and highway. my opinion complete bike ❤. I almost forgot. It is a very quiet bike.

Thanks for sharing this video!

Great video!!!! Man when you Blow up a TDub you go all out!!! Too bad Bro!! Sounds like you have a really cool Dad and His friend to help you out. Keep Smiling.

Im kinda scared doing anything more than forest service roads on my NC, but honestly this is making me think otherwise 🤔 Great video!

I would never put loctite on a front sprocket unless I knew I'd have a decent impact gun during disassembly. Godspeed

I have a 2012 NC700X Honda for sale. Runs like new, recent service, new tires/chain/battery. Has a windscreen. 18,000 miles. 65-70mpg. Listed for $3500. Obo.

I've been really enjoying your nc700x dct content. As I've been researching them offroad cause I'm planning to get one and possibly doing some light trails and wondered how it might do in the dunes here in Michigan. I really like the dct but they seem to offer it on anything that not 500lbs. I plan to pick one up and focus on getting the weight down as much as possible!

@Dual Dorks there's a guy on here claiming he got his nc700x down 55lbs and he didn't appear to do alot. I have some ideas that should get it just under 400lbs! Then it would be a real sleeper 😁. 4 bikes! What other bikes you got? Absolutely epic scenic vids man! Reminds me of my red dead game 🤣

Maybe more motor for you . I'm thinking the way you ride a few more CC's would help . Now is the time . Wishing you the best , K

Wow! I love the sound of this thing. I am a good off-road rider, but I prefer more pavement oriented ADV bikes because I feel good off-road on most bikes already. I switched from KTM 1190R to Honda ST-1300, and I don't miss the KTM. I think this NC700X will be my next adventure bike. I should try the Africa Twin first though.

But they do not have the range to ride longer than 2 hours. A gas bike with an auto transmission should do the trick! They even installed a cornering ABS on the AT, after I told one of their guys at the bike show in Orlando that I want one! 👍

Your TW was sounding off, a little clickier than I’m used to. I have way less miles I was blaming your microphone before you said this happened, but now I wonder if there was already an oil delivery issue. Sorry :(
