Not bad looking, but today i test ride a Triumph Tiger Explorer 200 man that's a great machine those 137hp are stallions, the bike rides really comfortable great on corners, superbe braking one finger and thanks to the abs you wont go over the bars, did a few twisties and loved it, now 15.000€ is close to what i payed for my uly when it was new 13.000€ but 6 years of evolution..... but no it needs to be a couple or 3 years on the market and see what goes wrong, and wonder how expensive it will be to take care of if any of it's abs traction control or ride by wire goes wrong..... | ||

Check out the Yamaha Super Tenere, it's been out a few years now. | ||

"Yamaha Super Tenere". I loved the old one. The new one is £10,000 used from a dealer in the UK. The Triumph Tiger Explorer 200 at 15.000€, thats £12,500. For that you can buy the very last/best version of a XB12X/T (£5K) with luggage/mods AND a 1125R or CR for £4.5k. Both in mint/showroom condition, one owner, less than 4k miles, with a full HD service history and any HD warranty left. Not only would you have possibly two of the best bikes ever made but you will have £3000 in change to give me for my advice. | ||

Geesh. Even the marketing fluff makes Honda's look booring. Too bad, it's probably a very nice bike. | ||

that's a sharp looking bike and an interesting video. I have never ridden a Honda before so I ask how do they handle? Back in the 70's when I first started riding motorcycles, Honda's were always the slowest brand out there but they seem to have changed that these days. Any Honda riders comments? | ||

The Honda NC700X http://www.cycleworld.com/2012/01/20/2012-honda-nc 700x-first-look/ 70 to 75 mpg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=55WLV6tsmfo&feature =related | ||

looks like it is targeted for the same market as a motus or a multisrtata or a GS | ||

Hope the crash bars will protect the side covers, they stick out quite a bit. Nice video. I prefer this one though. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fg7hnkUhFc8 (Message edited by rdkingryder on March 30, 2012) | ||

That NC700x would make a nice commuter bike. |
