I just bought a 2012 NC700X off of CraigsList with 17700 miles on it. This is my first motorcycle. It already has some decent accessories: Honda tall windscreen, Givi racks, Tourtech crash bar, bar risers, GPS mount, and LED running lights. The guy I bought the NC700X from didn't know much about it's history other than the guy he bought it from got it off auction. I guess that was a salvage auction because it has a salvage title. I'm not too worried because he put 10k on it since 3/28/16 and it drives fine. He also got the valves adjusted, new tires, and the bike passed inspection in June.
This is my first bike. My dad introduced me to motorcycles way back when I was around 8 on a Honda Trail 90. I then got an upgrade to a Honda 175. He then bought twin 350 dual sports that we rode around on the back roads. That 350 was way too big for me but I loved riding. I'm semi kicking myself for not buying one new, but this being my first bike I was a little weary of buying one new. Local shop offered me a 2014 for $5500, but I didn't want to finance. Now I'm just waiting patiently to get the thing registered and my helmet to arrive so I can start riding.
My plans for the bike are commuting to work and camping trips. The first upgrades I'm planning are a tail bag, USB charger, and a bi-xenon headlight retrofit.
