Hi.
I'm planning a big change in my (half-through) life, and that also implies an undefined-duration (years at the least) round the world trip.
The NC750XA (2015) is my first bike (new), and so far it has given me a lot of riding pleasure, so even though I think there may be more common bikes for such an adventure (other Honda Adventure bikes or BMWs), I don't feel the need to change at this point.
The next steps are to equip the bike with a top box and side cases, get a bigger windshield, swap the tires for TKC-80's or Shinko 705's, install some protections (engine, radiator...), start working on all the necessary documentation/paperwork, and in the middle of it, possibly discover other bikers that have similar plans - even better if NC750XA riders themselves.
For the note, I'm French, currently residing in Vancouver, BC, Canada. An ideal start date would be November/December if I can get the paperwork done, with some possible run-up trip(s) around Canada and/or the States (if weather allows) before leaving for Central/South America or Europe (because of the weather, riding South may be a better option).
Feedback, anyone?
-Phil.
PS: bought the NC750XA service manual a few weeks ago.
