    Is the NC700X a touring bike?

    Hello everyone! My wife and I took our NCX down to her family's farm on Memorial Day. That is a 90 minute drive. Both going down and coming back our back sides became sore as possible. We do have the stock seat. I know the stock seats have a rep as a ride killer. But my...

    Lone Honda NC amongst a sea of Harleys

    I just wanted to tell everyone here, especially those that may be contemplating whether or not to get a Honda NC700X, how we were at a large motorcycle Blessing church service this past Sunday. Our small, but menacing, red NC was parked prior to the ride alone in the midst of maybe 300-400...
