Picked up the Quarter horse and first ride report
#35
When I picked up Sparky's 2015 NC700X in Jacksonville I rode it home, a trip of about 100 miles. About half on I-95 and the rest rural two lanes near home. I was amazed at the smoothness of the motor and it's relaxed feeling at 80+ mph. First tank she recorded 72mpg average. The larger screen has cut my mileage down and now averaging about 68mpg.

Remember when 750's were thought of as big displacement bikes? The NC and Suzuki's V-strom have shown me that a medium displacement bike is all that's needed for long distance travel.
