I went and bought a red one...
#1
Did the test ride today. The NC750 and the MT-07

The MT-07 was more fun to ride, but the bike is quite small and I'm not lol. Also the saddle isn't great and the indicators etc are awkward and fiddly.
The NC750 was a different ride - the engine gained nothing from revs, it has a constant torque all the way through the range. That took a bit of getting used to. It was also a more comfortable position.

So all in all it was a finely balances, each had it's good and bad points. In the end I went with the sensible option. 99.9% of my miles are to and from work so I went with the NC750. Got a good deal from the dealer - £600 for my old Fazer, plus accessories fitted for free with a couple of hundred off the bike.

So - it should arrive around the 28th. It'll be the first time I've ever owned a vehicle less than 10 years old!

Oh - and it's red lol

It will be super fast in red...good choice.


I sat on a MT07 again this week and they are small.....im gonna have. Test ride in.better weather but i dunno if id do 200-300 mile day blasting on one.....my thou seat is already pretty hard but i still dont think the 07 will be any better

Oh another question....about the MT im afraid.......did it feel slow????
Easiest way to go fast........don't buy a blue bike

Good luck with the new bike , a mate of mine ran one for nearly 3 years. Is this the one you have ordered?Excellent commuter bike. He has just traded it for the2015 Kwacker Versy as he wants to go touring.
Enjoy.

Well the mpg counter on the demo bike was reading 68mpg and I cannot for one minute imagine people taking a bike for a test drive and riding like a saint! So, I used to get about 50 to 55 out the Fazer, I hope to get 70 to 80 out of the NC. I might join Fuelly and log it. I'll report back once the bike has run in and I've got stable numbers...
