Hi CagerOnTwoWheels Always a pleasure to watch your videos. I bought my NC700x last year in July and have been enjoying every ride with it. I love the bike so much I took it on a 4600 km, two up, full Givi Pannier set plus a full size ruck sack on a trip from Northampton in the UK to Hungary over the last two weeks... Now I love the bike even more! To you folks thinking of getting either of these bikes, It's a great bike regardless of whether you're new to biking or been at it for years. My bike dealt with the traffic, kept up with other bikers and was miles better on fuel than pretty much all of the other bikes we met on the route. This alone was a continuous talking point of the trip. I don't want to hug this comments piece but wanted to let you all know this bike is much more than just a commuter, it's a fantastic all rounder. Have fun and be safe out there.
The best reviewer of 2013 returns with another excellent review. Really enjoy your vids:)
You definitely do some great work at making reviews. I'm a motorcycle noob and I learn a lot from your reviews. Thanks and keep up the good work!
i bought the 2014 in april 2015 ...i drooled over the videos all winter long and being from canada there lonnnnng winters i didnt get to ride alot this summer between work and weather but i love this bike and made the decision to buy it from watching cagers videos thank you very much cager ....keep up the good vids :D
Thanks for the review, you convinced me and I picked the bike up this week. Realy enjoy it!!
I just picked up an 2012 NC700X with 33K miles - loving it. Your review is spot on in every detail.
Hi, Cager! Thanks for the great video!
I like how you seem to have fun doing these reviews.
Very nice review and great channel overall. I have been watching you for a year, now, and today I subscribed. I have been driving cars for 10 years and now I am willing to get my license this spring and buy a bike. Your reviews have been perfect for me. Thanks!
Yep, have to say, you are one of the best bike reviewers on youtube. My pet hate is blaring music all the way through a video. I'd much rather hear the engine noise and what the rider thinks. Great vid.
Thank you for your excellent thorough review. I'm glad to see that if you had a choice between a discounted 700, or the 750 you would still choose the 750.
Dude have you lived in the UK in the past? Your English is fantastic, you seem to know words & sayings I wouldn't expect a foreign national to know. Well done on the channel/videos it's nice to see/hear someone so passionate about bike & riding.
Cager, I've not been on a bike in a long time after having a serious accident when I was 19. With your and Riding With Tom's vlogs, I've decided to get trained and back in the saddle. I thank you for that. Wish me luck with my CBT tomorrow.
Yeah I passed thank you mate. I'm still undecided on what to get, but anything as long as I don't have to get on a Yamaha SR125 again lol.
Zooumberg
You again lol

Yeah :D I passed my theory test yesterday. Start my lessons on Tuesday. I can't wait. Then I'm gonna save for about 3 months and get a second hand CB600 Hornet. The theory test is a joke, I've done it three times now. Once for my lorry driving test, another for my driving instructor test and this for the motorbike. If I failed it (I did get one question incorrect, the difference between a ring road and a mini roundabout) does that mean the qualifications for the other tests are invalid? It's a stupid money making con for Pearsons and the Government.
Hallo Cager,
die NC750X habe ich bestellt und bekomme sie in ca. 5 Wochen.
Dank Deines Videos ist die Vorfreude noch größer :-)
Deine Testrunden sind einfach klasse!
Might get one of these next, just got a CB500X as I thought this would be too high for me but I'm the same hight as you. I love the 500X so easy and nimble, lots of fun. I had work done on my last bike, VFR800 at the dealer and they gave me a curtesy bike I think it was one of these. What ever it was it had an automatic gearbox. I was constantly ghosting the clutch lever.
27km per litre! For a 700 cc? Amazing!! Definitely on my wish list. Great job Cager!!
Bought the 750S. Great bike, especially for novices.
Dead easy to ride, extremely stable, smooth and torquey.
Hey ! Your video review was very helpful for me to take the decision to buy NC750X . A very all-round bike that can handle most things. Thank you very much .
Oh! A great review comparing the older and the new model.
Thank you very much Cager, you just explained how Honda fixed almost every detail that i didn't like on the Original NC700 series.
I would love you to (sometime) test drive some oldies like the Suzuki GS500 and know what you think about her.
I happen to have a GS500 and i'm not sure wich one will be the next lady.
I'm between the NC750S (After your review, more than ever), or a CBF600N.
Had the 750S version for a year (great bike), just rode the X as a courtesy bike.
If you're thinking of an NC, test ride both.
The S has a slightly firmer ride - less suspension travel so it handles better. It also feels noticeably more planted on the road.
Hey Cager, what helmet/microphone setup are you using. The audio is amazing. Most riding reviews sound like they are coming from the Space Station in a hurricane. Yours is crisp and clean.
And a great review. You do a better job of relaying the details of how the bike feels under you than most professionals. Anyone can rattle off specs but it take a special person to be able to articulate how a bike feels. Have you considered reviewing as a hobby/profession?
This right here? This is a great review. Really considering this as an upgrade to my Ninja 250 for touring. Probably need to add a larger windscreen, but it already has storage...
Portugal is absolutely beautiful!
Cager, ever consider doing professional reviews? Just saying cause you are articulate, and get your points across quite well. I am in Canada, and your presentations are much clearer than many of our local english speakers.
Also, for a one bike owner, you are very observant to the mechanics of it.
1, Correct for gearing and power. You won't notice the additional power because they widened the gearing to prevent bouncing off the rev limiter. Get more speed per gear.
2. They did change the fuel injection mapping, and added an O2 sensor to it to further improve how well it runs which is why the better mileage.
Great review bud, I also have a Nc700x which I bought in July 13 its a great bike BUT like you I thought if it just had !!!!!!! And now it looks like it has. Stay safe Eric.
Cager, nice review! Once I'm having my motorcycle driving license now, I still have serious doubts on what bike to get as my first bike. Many suggest we should get an old lady which can handle our mistakes without much "pain", but seems to me that no other bike would provide the easy riding, pleasure and cost effectiveness like the NC.
I was quite fun of the NC700x but even for an used motorcycle the cost is still almost of a new. Would a new NC750x be a good option instead - I like the new instrumental panel, the new bench, the better behaviour on low revs, the new colours. But what about the combined ABS? Removing it wasn't a step back in terms of breaking safety? Have you tested the new DCT? I read that the behaviour is improved as well.
Thanks
I love the sound of the bike .. Definetly a fun bike.. The wide bars give you a lot of leverage.. good stuff, makes transitions fun hehehe.. Some rear packs, and I would love it .. With the increasing the displacement a bit, may have made it the whole package easier to pull/move... With just a few extra hp, It doesn't have to work as hard as the 700..
good news with the new improvements on the new NC750X i wish that gear indicator was standard on the cb500 series too. the sad thing is that the NC is no longer an A2 license bike, which for me was more in within reach to a more lot of people.
I love your reviews dude!
I want to buy a 750 x dct!
You recommend it?
Super review! Informative, funny, and entertaining.
Thanks for this video. I really wanted to know if this bike is any good. Cheers mate.
Nice. Love the trunk, fits my axe.
I've had a 750S for 18 months, took a CB650F inline four out for a test ride recently. Unlike the NC you have to rev the CB hard to get real power. It can certainly shift but the lower rev range isn't much use.
The very strong, instant torque of the NC makes it a more flexible, practical (and still fun) bike in everyday use.
Hi Cager, once again a great review from you with lots of useful informations on this bike. I have been ridding a Yamaha xmax 400 and it is time to step up. Mostly computing in London but I would also like to do some touring with my partner. Considering this info which bike would you recommend? Yamaha Tracer 700, Kawasaki Versys 650 or Honda XC750 ? If someone else would like to reply to my question please do not hesitate. Many thanks, B
Hey, great review. I am planning to buy a NC750X myself and still can't decide which one I should take. With DCT or manual transmission. I've already tested the CTX700N and really enjoyed it. But its also fun to manually shift the gears. Any recommendations?
Excellent review! Have you tried and compared the DCT version?
camera or microphone are you using the sound is amazing. when I am recording I only get sound of wind or sound of the camera vibrating. by the way it's kind of a GoPro in a waterproof case
I have a honda integra which i've been riding for 18 months and it has been a truly lovely bike, I'm trading it for a new NC750X in silver on the 1st of march 2014 I'm really looking forward to it. And thank you for your Review it was very helpful.
Keep up the good work.
David
david I would like your first-hand opinion because you're switching from Integra to NC750X. I got crazy about Integra and trying to get one, but 2.000€ price difference made me rethink NC750X DCT. I need you riding experience of the two: is there a lot of wind in the body and legs on 750X when compared to Integra? I like long rides and drive year around, and my only concern is that if I get 750X I'll be freezing my butt off. CagerOnTwoWheels need your opinion too, pls compare wind protection on Integra
The Integra is a lovely bike, however, after buying the 750X DCT it feels completely different to ride.it's more powerful. you sit higher in the seat which is extremely comfortable, the bike feels narrower than the integra, has better throttle response, i replaced the small windscreen with a higher one which works well, i've also added heated grips and a centre stand, if it rains you can tuck your thighs under the fake petrol tank, my bike is one year old and I absolutely love it.
David
Hi! I like your reviews and test drives!
I would like more if you could try to review and test drive a scooter, the honda integra 700. I would like an opinion of a manual gear moto opinion on a scooter 700cc.
I'm no longer a 20 year man (actualy mid thirty), and I do care about things like, low cost maintenance, low cost gas consumption, praticality and confort, and a little of style. I have a 125cc scoter, but in a year or two I will change my mule (if I have the "time " for it)! What do you recomend?
Hello, I was wondering if I installed the IXIL Hyperlow exhaust on a 2014 Honda NC750XA, If I would need to put the motorcycle on a dyno and re-tune the fuel injection. I know usually you need to do so when you change exhaust and put a performance air filter. I just want to make sure if I need to re-tune when only the exhaust is changed or not.
Thanks guys
Neste fim de semana tive a oportunidade de experimentar a 750S. Gostei muito. Tem um ronronar muito fixe. Conduzia-a cerca de meia hora e teria muito prazer em conduzi-la por mais tempo. Antes da 750S experimentei a nova 500 que também já testaste. Achei o acelerador mais nervoso do que a 750S. E para quem como eu, conduz uma maxiscooter, o indicador de velocidade engrenada é uma grande ajuda na(s) NC750. Já não conduzia uma mota de velocidades há cerca de 3 anos. Gostei da experiência. Pena não ter tido a oportunidade de experimentar a Integra. Vou testá-la em breve. Quando chegou ao mercado, testei a 700 mas o escudo frontal não era nada simpático com os meus joelhos. Como melhoraram esse aspecto, vamos ver como as coisas correm. Um abraço.
You mentioned "canyon dring" but I don't know if that was said in jest. How good *_is_* it at leaning hard into corners? Thanks!
I really hope the 750 comes to the US.
2:45 3 horses? 48 to 55 is 7 more. Everywhere i have seen the stats on them it says 48 for the 700 and 55 for the 750
Hi for a fun weekend bike, which would you recommend? MT07 or the NC750? thanks
I feel yah, my first bike is also an nc700x.
Aren't those turn signal covers new; I had noticed they were clear tint unlike my bike in the US that has orange covers.
Overall nice review though:D
I bet Honda loves you as much we do!! Nice nice nice. I have the cbr500r but I am thinking this is really what I need.
Anyway you can do a review on the NC750S DCT? The reason I ask is where I live I have to special order any motorcycle over 250cc's and after vat, import fees... you pay twice the amount the motorcycles cost and still have to wait 4 to 8 months for the bike. So if you could possibly let me know your thoughts on the Honda CT750S DCT it would be very helpful. Thank you.
Great review. Thanks
I need to see you review the Nuda 900R!
Hi Cager, I'm considering an NC750s DCT or CB500X what do you think of these 2 and how they compare
hey can you do a review on the msx 125 from honda
Cager would you prefer a slightly used nc750x (2015) or a brand new cb500x (2017)?
Please answer i need heeeelppp!
nice... but what about DCT?
When will we see the S review?
great review and great bike thanks
Oi Cager, tudo bem? I'm a young 42 year old, been riding a Vespa for many years and for the last year a Varadero 125. I really only use my bike for commuting within central London 12 miles a day round trip (but would do more if I had a decent bike I suppose). I' ve decided to get a bigger bike because the 125 is just sooooo frustrating sometimes - noisy, first gear is like reverse etc etc. So: I'm between the NC750X, the MT-07 or the Versys 650. My head says NC, heart says Versys and balls say MT-07 :) What do you recommend?
I thought it was DCT but I noticed 2 levers so obviously this is manual shifting only
You really should try testdriving and review a Versys 650!
Waiting for DCT on your channel. Not that I have anything to check, I already bought the bike. But this is missing from cagers hands.
Thank you.... Bike fits nicely. Bought it :)

Cager do you like this better than your fz-07 tracer?
Cb650f or nc750x or mt07 or mt 09?
Boa noite, estou indeciso entre a BMW F 800 GS e a Honda NC 700 x. Gostava de saber a tua opinião qual a moto que será melhor e pq .
Obrigado e parabéns pela review.
what about the suspension? i think it is a bit hard...like the nc700 ...
from the BMW GS
Fantastic video , your so funny! Which city is this? so beautiful.
Hi Cager, love your videos. We, in England are having few issues with the trip meter reseting randomly. Have you heard anything of this sort?
yes read owners manuel.thats why you have 2 trips.trip 2 you want.
I had a test ride of the 750 thought it was good but couldn't get used to the 6500 rev limiter, kept cutting in when overtaking, loved the torque though, in the end went for the mt07 same torque more power and lighter.
CagerOnTwoWheels I have a 700x manual, 6500 red line have not got there yet this motor just seems to fit my riding style, used to have a Yamaha TDM 900 all my overtakes and speed are the same on both bikes. Great reviews Cager keep up the good work.
8:38 I'd you're 5 foot 7 inches tall, and I'm assuming your inseam is around 29 inches, and you're at the edge of good comfort o. That nc750x, then I trust that my 31 to 32 inch inseam 5 foot 9 inches self should be perfectly comfy. Thanks for the info and video. Cheers!
Estou a pensar comprar uma mas estou com duvidas sobre a suspensao..venho duma naked e nao quero sofrer mais das costas lol e das epicondilites nos cotovelos lol
I'm very interested in this version. Have watched your review of the 700 as well. You talked about the lower center of gravity. I would think that would help taking corners. I'm not a beginner but it just seems like a fun bike to have. Now, does it have heated grips or is that extra? Also, would you tour on this bike cuz that's one reason I would get it for. Hahaha...'is this light ever going to change?' So, you wouldn't have a problem with extreme wind? Geez...that's a great maintenance schedule, too! The engine sounds better. Can you get the standard with ABS or do you have to get the DCT version? Great review...I have a Yamaha FZ6r but I want one of these!
CagerOnTwoWheels
As I know, NC750X has ABS in standard, you can't buy NC750X without ABS. I like NC750X very much, but Yamaha MT-07 will be so much cheaper, I can't understand, why! NC750X (ABS, 40kW) in my country - 6790€. Yamaha MT-07 (ABS, 55kW) - 5690€! I hope that Honda will lower the price according to that. :)
Good review Cager, with the 750x now in the shops they're big savings to be had on the 700x. I bought a 700x dct two weeks ago and saved £1300 off the RRP just because there was a 750x sat right next to the one i bought, do i think the upgrades to the new one are worth £1300 that i saved Derrrrrrrrr nope. Spleenkiller out....
just bought that :D
thank for your video!
Great job Cager :)
...and the final fuel consumption was...?
Should I go on the automatic version? Or manual?
I am kind of lazy and I use it mostly inside the city. What do you think? Have you tried riding on it?
Thanks!
Hi Cager nice review, just sold my cb500x and bought one of these. price in Ireland is 8600euro.............dave
which country and city is this?
Great review, I like NC700X very much (I don't own any yet), but NC750X is even better and it's my choice no.1 now... :)
Nice review!!!
As a beginner myself, I was wondering if you've tried CB500X? How would you compare it to NC700X?
He tried CB500X before and he said that NC is feels a lot more substantial,heavier bike than CB500X is definitely a more agile and maneuverable bike than NC I think CB500 series is far more suitable for beginners (I myself a beginner too) it's cheaper it looks more rugged than NC its maintenance cost are lower than NC and most importantly it's much more affordable at least in my case there's $5000+ gap between CB500X and NC700X. For that gap I can easily get a CRF250L (Dual Sport bike) for some off road action!
Both NC and CB are suitable for beginners but CB is definitely more wallet friendly.
If you got the money then NC is a buy.
pls compare with versys 650
What's your inseam?
Hi, great review. I was wondering. I am 6'4" tall. Do you think this bike would be good for my size? Thank you.
I am 5'10 and I can't flat foot when I try to put my 2 feet on the ground. I can only flat foot when I only have one feet on the ground and the bike is a little bit tipped to the side. Very comfortable position and to finish ever heard of 6FOOT4 Honda? I think he rides a Honda CBR 600RR. I am guessing if he can ride a crotch rocket and be comfortable, you should have no problem with this NC750X :).
how about kawasaki versys?
Bom video, excelente review! Para a próxima faz a malveira e vai às azenhas do mar, só para lhes mostrar o quão bom é o nosso cantinho( just saying) ;) Keep on...
hi, how is the DTC on the NC700x and NC750XA? is this like an automated gear box? i saw some reviews where this had some extra buttons on the handles which i can't see on the model you tested ( drive button on the right side and gshift on left) . sorry for the noobish question but i am not clear on whether this is an automatic gb bike or not :(
They offered both DCT and Manual tranny for this NC750X.
Since the redline came up so early (7000 rpm)
Most people would go with DCT to avoid its early shifting annoyances.
I'm thinking about getting one as well being a beginner but it's a hard buy in my country it's a little over 400,000 baht and a beginner friendly CB500X only cost 215,000 baht (Made in Thailand)
I like the looks of NC more but that price gap is such deal breaker.
And to think CB500X is simply an OC500X I don't have worry about early shifting too.
I got nothing against NC except its rather over-exaggerated price.
Too bad this thing looks sweet in yellow or red a 500 it is then...
Thanks for this review.
Wow, sounds like it's an awesome bike. Really not a fan of the looks but the practicality is damn-near unbeatable...
Just test rode the NC750, the old NC700 and the CB500F.
The NCs have a LOT more torque than the CB.
The 750 is noticeably smoother than its 700 predecessor. It's also higher geared and clearly punchier.
A significant improvement in my view.
I don't understand why don't you mention the fact that this one has a clutch. Is this the model where you can choose between automatic and manual gear switching?
This one has a clutch, the Honda NC750X DCT is full automatic
Thanks for the written conversion from km to miles for your US viewers:)
How many RPM does this do in top cog at 100kmph?
The 750 does 3100 at 100
I think the nc750x is the automatic one, the nc750 is the geared one which you are riding in the video
-Ninja- x for trail
Dct for dct 👍
give us more reiviews xD you are the best!
The NC gets about the same mileage as the Honda VTR 250 FI which is a twin cylinder engine.
I'd much rather have the NC700 or NC750 that has a lot more torque because on a 250 you really do have to rev the engine quite a bit which can get a little annoying in stop and go traffic.
If it had been kept down to lower than 190kgs (wet) I would have considered it, but it is slightly too heavy. Good review though.
why a city motorcycle? I have a Nc 750x dct and I have often been with it in the Swiss and Austrian Alps with a full top box, side cases and tank bag with various camping items lashed on top.
offroad driving is also no problem if you take it easy!
and yes you can also drive it in the city if you are not adventurous😎
Hello , i like this bike and i am looking a bike Cheap max 8.000 euro to buy for to make trip in Europe , what you think this bike is good for long distance trip or have other options about touring bike in the price 8.000 euro arround ? can anyone help me ? thanks . ( i am sorry for my low english btw ) ;(
I got the 700x (2013) which basicly just has a bit less hp (48hp) and I drive a lot with it (~100-200km a day). I got mine for 4k (used with 15.000km on it). Got 2 aluminium-sidecases and it's really smooth to drive (even longer distances). The only thing is the seat, but as Cage said in his video, they improved it on the 750x. SO yes, it should fit perfectly for your plans.
+Eac Noba thank you !!
AWESOME review (y)
Thank you for telling us here in USA miles per gallon Instead of just kilometers I wish more vid makers will remember that people all over the world are watching thank you from California, USA
