I am a new rider at 60 years old. I have about 2k miles in. I have discovered I am very happy cruising along at a moderate pace enjoying the countryside, so I am not looking for a sport bike.
I am riding a drz 400 right now, and thinking of something bigger for longer rides. I like the longer wheelbase and low center of gravity of the NC700. It is windy where I live.
Other bikes considered: Versys 650, v strom 650, fj09, Vulcan 650 etc.
I see a 2015 dct model for sale for about $6500, which seems very reasonable.
As far as I can see the 2016 changes are pretty minor and probably not worth $1500, but I figured I would ask the experts.
