Pros and Cons in comparison

Honda NC750X 2016

With its DCT (Dual Clutch Transmission), the NC750X is the most coherent model in the NC range. With its windshield, long suspension travel and the resulting increase in comfort, it is also suitable for longer distances and even travelling. After all, why shouldn't beginners also be able to enjoy comfortable yet uncomplicated travel? Above all, the comparatively low centre of gravity takes away the fear of the visually much larger and more bulky NC750X, even for inexperienced riders. The engine is not too sporty, but the DCT, which changes gears extremely precisely and easily at the touch of a button or even fully automatically, quickly makes you forget that. The helmet compartment under the dummy tank is particularly ingenious.

Triumph Tiger 800 XC 2011

I like the Tiger 800 XC not only on the road for my daily commute to work. It is a very uncomplicated vehicle which, thanks to the powerful and lively engine, is not only very useful but also a lot of fun. On the racetrack, I actually only used the vehicle for my instructor work. But I couldn't help it and had to take to the track once in the faster group. The high-quality chassis and the agile engine were a joy to ride and the Tiger 800 XC is THE universal talent par excellence for me.

lively engine
