Pros and Cons in comparison

Kawasaki Ninja ZX-6R 636 2013

The Kawa convinces with its good handling and uncompromising reliability. A strong motorbike, but definitely not a bargain.

Sharpened geometry

seating position okay

good handling

uncompromising reliability.

High purchase price.

Honda NC750X 2018

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.
