Honda NC750X 2017

Honda NC750X 2017

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.

MEX tested the new tricycle from Japan for you and was very enthusiastic. The front end rides as if on rails on narrow mountain passes as well as in faster radii. The innovative concept of the NIKEN allows for incredibly fast and yet equally safe progress in all weather conditions. The highly praised Cross-Plane three-cylinder has been perfectly adapted for the NIKEN with a little more flywheel mass and a different final gear ratio. To all interested parties: Don't be put off by the looks or the "three-wheeler image". Be sure to test ride it!
