Honda Crossrunner VFR800X

[samsontok]

Hi beary! hey i cant decide which one to choose, a crossrunner and a NC 700x. Both bike is AWESOME!! im in dilema....hehe so maybe u can enlightend me ... or any bros out there who can help me THANX a ZILLION !!!

 

Go for Crossrunner if you want power otherwise NC for local commuter should be good.

[beary]

bro..can't help u much on this..

 

more of personal feel...NC has very good fuel consumption...but, dats about the plus point for me...

 

CR..mount the bike, like the feel, buy...

 

i strongly suggest, do up a checklist of what you want or a bike wishlist and do the ticks...

 

in the end, the one with the most ticks win...

 

eg. Looks, power, handling, parts, after-market parts, price, etc...

 

ultimately, you must like the bike...no point buying and regretting after 6 months..u know wat i mean?

 

i like CR because of its "conceptual" looks...road/touring bike, with a little off-road capabilities and looks.

Good riding posture for long distance..except for the windshield...

otherwise, I'm loving the bike!

THanx bery for the post! i would try ure way hahaha

beary, you said you ride with your wife? how is the pick up with 2 up and luggages? need to drop gear to overtake? also how about from a stop position? good pick up? you mentioned you were able to hit 190km/h with your wife as pillion? nice. im looking at this bike and the bigger crosstourer but so far no decent reviews out yet

[beary]

I have not problem with pick-up, afterall, how bad can it be with V4 and Vtec?

 

Overtaking at 80km/h and above, got very decent overtaking power...no need for dropping gear, unless u r the very agressive rider type, den, sure, dropping gear will give u more response...

 

in fact, we hit almost 200km/h...but the wind turbulance was getting strong, and safety reason, i didn't go beyond...

 

CR is a fun touring bike with very slight off-road capabilities...good pick-up power, smooth handling...

 

Cheers!

if you are looking for speed, this is not the bike...

[slayer2cool]

nice. thanks for the feedback. nah not really looking at speed, more of torque for me

Saw a Grey Camo latest CrossRunner on road...

[beary]

bro..i know one of the grey camo belongs to angelus_conceicao...he has a set of hepco junior side panniers..30L...

 

i saw another grey camo..seems like an uncle riding..i smile at him, but he just gives me an "angry" look.. -_-"

 

and on Sun..saw another CR who "beeped" at me...lolx!!!

[Echelon]

I saw a CR with Camo prints all over it. Very sweet......I was driving on ECP and trailed you and kept telling me wife about it. Awesome ride bro. Hope I did not scare you trying to keep up with you.

 

I ride a VFR1200 and used to ride the VFR800.....I think the CR is really a beauty.....maybe should go try it.

Hahaa. That's me lolx...

[Taufizcorner]

Is the Akarprovic slip on gonna be released soon on the CR??????????? Beary?

[beary]

i had tried calling to order...but the service attitude..err...

 

anyway, from what i know so far...only LeoVinc is approved for CR now...

 

I order Remus 2 months ago....till now, stock not here yet..and not approved by LTA as well...sianz...

 

CR too rare in SG..hence, not many shops wanna bring the exhausts in and get LTA approval...

[Taufizcorner]

Love the CR but the exhaust... need to change man..

[beary]

ya..still eagerly waiting for my remus...

as usual.. Chng Chng Chng... hahahhaa

I spotted the CR for the first time few months back, a silver colour one parked at Defu Lane 10. Stopped to take a look as I have never seen this make. This bike was parked there everyday, on the pavement of a automobile repair workshop opposite a coffeeshop. I fetch my wife off work almost everyday so get to see it.

 

After that, I was thinking of waiting for the owner to ask more about it, but sadly it never appeared again.

That was my bike. But I've stopped working at Tan Lim Motor.

[tranceaddict]

Im shopping for big bikes. Used to ride FJR1300 and enjoyed it a lot. Massive power and virtually maintenance free shaft. Lots of storage and wind protection. Highest speed gone on it is 220km/h. Never tried it since.

Not been riding for almost 2 years.

 

Im in dilemma whether to go for TDM or VFR800x. Since both has its own strength and weaknesses, i wonder if anyone has either rode both bikes before?

 

Your feedback is much appreaciated.

 

Thanks
