What did you trade in??.

[Deleted member 1183]

I traded in a Silverwing FJS600 with 50,000 Miles on it. It had served me well on my daily commute but as I was about to retire I no longer needed the protection it provided in all weathers, all year round.

I liked the posted economics of the NC, as I planned to do a lot of motorcycling in my retirement (1000km during the past week), and had to think of the associated petrol costs. I traded in and have not regretted it. I now have 6000kms on the NC since October last.The consumption has never dropped below 70MPG so I have given up calculating .

I also have a Tex that on its last tank did 42 MPG and a KTM 950SM that rarely goes above 40MPG . The only bike I have which can come close, is a KTM 690 Enduro which achieves about 57 mpg or thereabouts.

A good friend purchased the Silverwing from the dealer so I still have some connection with it. I love Euro Bikes but I will always have a Honda !

Traded in my daily commuter since 2008, a 2005 Yamaha V-star 650

I didn't trade in but I've marked the others in my garage for sale come Spring. Up for sale are nicely equipped Kawasaki Concours and a Piaggio MP3-500. The NC700X was bought as a replacement for the tourer and the commuter. So far so good.

I had an 09, seat was way worse than the NCX and it was a vibrating under-powered turd lol. Other than that I liked it.

I traded in my 2001 Honda RC51. The NC is a drop in power but I can toss it around in the twisties like the RC and it is WAY WAY WAY more comfortable.

traded a 2004 1800 wing with 63,00 miles on it and received a check for 1200 dollars. now I feel like I am riding a motorcycle again. I am really thinking of a ctx trade now. love my ncx but it is too tall.

I traded my GL1800 Goldwing with navigation. The NC is a lot easier to move around in the garage.
