My other bike - VOZZA_imp - 01-25-2015 http://s1224.photobucket.com/user/petestrom1/media/002.jpg.html The stablemate to my CB1100EX. Honda NC750X DCT. RE: My other bike - the Ferret - 01-25-2015 Very cool Vozza. I want to ride one of those (DCT models.... I have ridden the std shift model). Nice bikes! So what is your impression of the DCT transmission so far? RE: My other bike - metallyguitarded_imp - 01-25-2015 That looks like it would be fun to ride. Looking at your photos of the NC750X I was struck by the resemblance it has to the Zero SR (A bike I've had a lot of interest in since first learning of the electric motorcycle market.)

But at first glance, the Zero immediately came to mind. Your NC is a nice looking ride. Looking forward to hearing more about it. RE: My other bike - VOZZA_imp - 01-25-2015 Hi Ferret, I haven't ridden a manual so can't really compare it. We have both here and what made me go for the DCT was that in drive or sport mode it is just a twist and go. When you pin the throttle in sport mode there is very little that can keep up to about 60 mph. Some people over here have had a problem coping with the manual bike because of the low Rev limit leaving them out to dry sometimes when overtaking. No such problems with the DCT. I use mainly Drive mode and that gets me in the low to high 70's mpg depending on my mood. I love this bike it is just so easy to ride and so practical with the extra luggage space where the tank would normally. Hi MG, that Zero has a nice look about it I wish that Honda had put a nice swinging arm on the NCX though just like that Zero one would be nice. RE: My other bike - the_undecider_imp - 01-25-2015 I wonder why Honda hasn't brought the updated NC700X to replace the 700 here in the US. From what I have read, the 750 is even torquier and uses less fuel (which is already pretty impressive)
