just to share with potential NC700X owners, there seems to have a design flaw for this bike:

 

1. When it rains the short front mudguard allows a lot of water/crap to be thrown over the radiator.

 

2. The lack of a rear wheel hugger allows a lot of water/crap to be thrown over the rear of the bike.

 

Hope the extended front mudguard, rear hugger and radiator protector arrives in singapore asap...

 

do anyone know where can we find ermax, skidmarx and r&g products in singapore? seems like only these companies have aftermarket options for this bike so far...

motorworld can order ermax windshields, not sure of the other parts

Extender can be bought from Pyramid, carried by Mtechnik.

[kmjoe]

[samsontok]

Anyone has try ride the NC700? Heard a lot of vibration due to twin cyclinders instead of in-line-4. Pls drop a line here if you had tried.

Nope, Honda designed this bike like a car. Runs on low revs and thus the vibes aren't pretty obvious, it's there for character, I guess.

 

Gonna ask Boon Siew tomorrow if they would be bring in the DCT & C-ABS model!

Thx for reply, how about compare to super 4?

Different machine altogether. Different styling, different engine. Though, it runs at much lower revs and have better fuel economy.

Thx for the reply again, I'm referring to the vibration wise.

[kmjoe]

yes there is some mild vibration on the lower rpm like most bikes, but none that would bother the rider much.

Yep, all the vids looks damn good!

 

Oh, Boon Siew said...not yet...not yet to my queries about the C-ABS cum DCT model. Don't even bother to entertain me at all.

 

However, Mr Lee from Looi's Motors mentioned about the DCT model arriving next month, 19K OTR. I'm pretty skeptical about his pricing.

[kmjoe]

the other time i ask looi's about the nc700x non dct he also told me 19k otr... i dont think that is the final price

[samsontok]

I just bought a NC700X non DCT/ABS @ $17,000 without insurance, collection date will be this coming friday. Can the shop make it? Yet to know.

Base on my understanding, Looi's sold his last piece NC700X ABS @ $18,000.

Thx for reply, seem like you understand lot on this bike.

[Lexanez]

So, possibly that Mr Lee's pricing might be accurate? 1k more for the DCT cum ABS model?

1K for ABS & 2K to 3K for DCT.

[samsontok]

FYI, for those who are interested in DCT, Boon Siew will not bring it in. The only DCT you can have is NC700 Integra which shop is selling at $22,500 without insurance.

i would prefer the skidmarx one, cox its not just cheaper, it seems to cover a larger surface area. but its made to order! take about 21 days to dispatch, omg... not sure if i wana get the rad protector and extended fender from that site, seems like the price is pretty good...

[samsontok]

U mean Skidmarx hugger about S$150 consider good price?
