I can confirm the R&G Radiator guard fits the 2016 DCT--it is on my bike (first farkle that went on it, along with SW Motech engine guards). Cheers

I notice at the link there are only two options for "NC700 Europe, Oz, and Canada only 2012+" by which CalSci means (I think) NC750X. So is there no CalSci touring windscreen for the NC750? I am going to find something--either new windscreen or helmet or ??. I like the CalSci windscreens.

I can absolutely confirm the MOTECH engine guard fits the 2016 750X DCT, as well as the R&G Radiator Guard. Both are installed on my shiny new bike. Since the parts arrived before the bike did, I dropped off the parts at the dealer and had them installed as part of PDI so was able to pick up...

Hey Klimber, I have had two DL650's and loved them both (K06 and K09 outfitted with Pelican side cases and otherwise set up for touring with MadStad bracket/windscreen/other farkels). I just took delivery of a 2016 750X DCT. I seriously considered a new Vstrom when I started looking for a new...

Hey WK, I could have warned you about the "tulip festival"--I got off on Hwy 11 and came home through Yarrow on the way home yesterday to avoid it. I will be on the bike all week but today I was locked to my desk, unfortunately. Looking forward to riding with you.

I picked up my bike yesterday!! Wow, what a great ride this bike is! I ghost shifted it just once--got used to the paddle shifters to downshift when in D mode very quickly. I am so impressed with the bike, or "Nessie" (thanks LBS) as she will be known. The handling at low speed is what I...

What your wife said. Happy wife, happy life. :)

So somehow Ontario got the bikes before we did in BC? Figures. My DCT will arrive this week and I can't wait for it to get here! Ruggybuggy, did you notice the make of the OEM tires on the 2016? I can't tell from the pic (thanks for that!). A colleague of mine and I both sold our vStroms...

My 2016 750X DCT is in Edmonton (along with Whiteknuckle's) and on its way to me by next week! I fully expect to have my bike by about the 16th. Hope you get yours soon!

There really isn't much of another season in Newfoundland. I remember being there in June, with snow flying and an iceberg in the harbour. Makes me shiver just thinking about it! But, apparently there are a couple of weeks in early August that are nice.

By the way, I also have owned a Burgman. I really miss the heated seat--I am thinking about a heated Sargeant seat down the line for my 750X. :)

Hi Sam and welcome. I just sold my DL650 (K09) and was looking at either a new DL650 or the 750X. I test rode both last year and it was close between the two for sure. What sold me on the 750X (which I have on order and am waiting for) is the DCT (first time in Canada on that bike). Since...

Welcome NSNC! Motorized bicycles were the beginnings for our sport/hobby/recreation/alternative mode of transportation. While I rode mini-bikes around a field as a kid, all of my experience was on bicycles until my 40's too. It translates! Tons of great information on this forum--have fun...

That's good to know. I was thinking I would have to make a hole somewhere but it sounds like it may not be necessary!

I have a call in to Holeshot... As of 2 days ago I was told "no news". I did however receive my Motech engine guards and radiator protector.... Can't wait!
