I've wondered the same thing, lol, how do all bikes not this?!

Fuel consumption is incredible, it barely sips fuel. On a recent long trip the computer was showing an average of 91.1mpg. Mine is manual, but I've tried the DCT on an Africa Twin Adventure Sports and would happily swap my manual for DCT when the time to change comes. Honda have done a great job with the DCT technology, works so well.

Awesome!

I think you made a sensible purchase. I bought my first motorcycle at the end of last August, a used CB500X. Loved it. Put about 2000 miles on it before winter put an end to riding. My only dislike was the amount of shifting required while urban riding. I'd be 3rd before leaving an intersection if I wanted to avoid redlining it. I also thought the rpms above 60 mph were higher than I liked. Was going to a 16 tooth front sprocket if i was going to keep the bike. After spending hours online, I decided that the NC750X DCT ticked all my boxes at an acceptable price. Took delivery recently and am now waiting for weather and roads to make it doable to ride again. Wondering if there are any videos on if people have played around with "shift up" and "width" rpms, and what user traction control settings people have adopted. Looking forward to fine tuning it. If you find cold hands to be a continuing issue, heated grips will solve that easily. I found the Oxford grips really work well on my CB500X. I'm envious of your riding seasons.

When I first saw the NC 750 I was not impressed, but overtime I am growing to like it and may buy one. The NC750 is inexpensive, easy to ride and can do almost everything (on road, touring and not extreme off road). It seems to be a motorcycle for real riders who are not concerned about going fast in a straight line. I am not sure if I want DCT or manual. I am old school and love the clutch.

That all being said, a used Versys/Vstrom will be around 4-6k while a new NC750X manual is around $8k here. It's a bargain for a new bike. I'd definitely go for a late stock 2021 like you did.

It's a 750, which seems like it would be big for a new rider but it's such a gentle engine it would be tough to get yourself in a lot of trouble with it. Before this bike I only rode a 250. It's bigger in size and does have more power, but it's an easy to manage power.

If you have the money, NC750x DCT is the best second bike you can ever wanted. The best commuter. But and a big BUT, if you want real feeling of power or something like that, NC lacks a lot. She will never let you down on all but off roads. She got plenty of power to run legal speeds on most contries. The problem is she is that. Is like a big 250cc bike. If you want a real good travelling bike there is plenty of better options for same or less money. And for more also off course.
