New Bike Added, A Woman's Prerogative
#1
I've heard it said that a woman's prerogative is to change her mind. Sparky looked at trikes for days, Spyders and triked out Wings and decided that she would rather quit riding than go this route.

We stopped at the local Honda shop in Waycross to pick up some oil filters. There was a leftover 2015 NC700X on the floor-she sat in the NC's saddle and decided she just needed a lighter bike on the order of the two V-stroms she once had. The price on this 2015 had been lowered to $6900, hardly a good deal considering the age and the dealer was firm on this price. I called the dealer in Jacksonville where I had bought my CB, Cycles of Jax; They had a leftover, a 2015 NC700X for $4999. So off to Jacksonville (about 100 miles) and then back home with the new bike and since I had my helmet in our truck, I got to ride it home.

I am so impressed with the performance of the NC700. It feels so light and agile, great seat, smooth clunk free transmission. This may be my go to bike when I feel the CB1100 is getting too much for me.

Great looking bike. I would steer clear of that first dealer that wanted $6900...you got a nice deal with your purchase.

Thinking about the future of my riding, that's a good recommendation for a light, 'nice' 'bike. Not black though! Big Grin

There was a red and silver NC750X on the floor, beautiful color combo.

I believe this is the one with a storage trunk where the gas tank normally goes right? and you fill it up under the seat?
