    Colorado Dirt and Gravel Road Conditions in May

    Hi, I'll be visiting my son in Colorado sometime in the second half of May. I thought about using some days while he's at work to explore the area on my Himalayan. The routes I'm considering are something like this: https://maps.app.goo.gl/6nFAU7exnKfjcYi96. Since I've never ridden in Colorado...

    Thumping and lagging on my 2013 NC700X DCT annoys me, a lot

    With your and Dave's comments I think I (finally) got it. I have a good bike that I have to get used to it, even after 6 years :D Thanks

    Thumping and lagging on my 2013 NC700X DCT annoys me, a lot

    Dave, please don't get me wrong. I'm not complaining about the NC700X DCT in general. The thread was about my concerns regarding my 2013 NC700X DCT. If I remember correctly, the number of defective products leaving a factory in China is about 10% and in Japan about 2% (these statistics are...

    NC owners are in Iowa?

    I can't find this option on the Forum: how many NC owners are in Iowa? Maybe we can meet once a year? I can't see if there is any kind of "Annual National Meet of NC owners in the US"?

    Please correct me if I'm wrong but D on highway and 6th gear in S2 are the same, right?

    I serviced my bike last weekend and talked to the technician and the only thing he suggested is resetting/re-learning ECU. It didn't help though.

    Thumping and lagging on my 2013 NC700X DCT annoys me, a lot

    You noticed it right, it's the same on my 2013 NC so it must be correct for all NCs. "Faster rotation" means you want to speed up, kind of ASAP. In that case the DCT doesn't switch the gears immediately. I think you can reach 45mph still in 3rd or 4th gear. And when "slow rotate" the throttle...

    For my way of riding I wish I have something like (D+S)/2 :D

    Thumping and lagging on my 2013 NC700X DCT annoys me, a lot

    Generally, no, but in my case: yes. I've tested the behavior many times, and here's what drives me nuts: I'm in 6th gear, riding at around 60 mph, and start to decelerate slowly. As I reach 38-39 mph (the speed when the D-mode shifts gears up from 5th to 6th), if I try to accelerate up again...

    Thumping and lagging on my 2013 NC700X DCT annoys me, a lot

    I apologize for this post, it supposed to go to the other post. Although, about an hour after I posted the Google review (I was still in Stroom building, waiting on my bike) Dan, the manager, approached me about my negative review. We cleared up some issues and misunderstandings. I was really...

    Thumping and lagging on my 2013 NC700X DCT annoys me, a lot

    God Des Moines is sh**thole when it comes to dealerships. I took my NC to the service, first since I bought, to new dealership Stroom that bought out Garvis Honda and several other dealerships, BMW, Indian, Ducati. While waiting I asked to test ride 2015 NC700x manual. Kind of compare to my...

    Thumping and lagging on my 2013 NC700X DCT annoys me, a lot

    I ride most of the time in manual mode. It still gives me the pleasure to "change gears" at smooth, easy, etc. way. Probably about 70% of the time. Regarding the S mode, I'm a "slow rider" (stop laughing, I meant speedwise :mad:), low RPMs... I don't like to ride faster than 60-65 mph on back...

    Thumping and lagging on my 2013 NC700X DCT annoys me, a lot

    Hi to all, I own a 2013 NC700X DCT that I purchased in 2017 with only 1,500 miles from the first owner. Currently, it has 35,000 miles on the odometer. I really like and enjoy the DCT, except for the lagging and thumping issues. These have been bothering me since the beginning, and over the...
