r/NC750X

So yesterday I did a 10-hour ride (including breaks) from Linz to Poznań on my NC750X and by the end my butt was absolutely dying

I've seen quite a few people recommend upgrading the stock seat, so I wanted to ask if anyone here has done it and whether it was worth it.

What seat did you go with, and do you have any recommendations that are available in Europe?

I'm mainly looking for something more comfortable for long-distance touring/trips.

Hi everyone,

I’m seriously considering buying a Honda NC750X, but there’s a catch – I have no way to test ride or even sit on one, because there are very few of them where I live.

I’m hoping you can help me figure out if this bike will fit me before I commit to buying one.

My measurements:

· Height: 170 cm (about 5'7")

· Inseam: 79 cm (about 31 inches)

· Weight: 73 kg (about 160 lbs)

I know the seat height is listed at 800 mm, and my main concern is whether I’ll be able to get both feet down confidently. I ride a lot in city traffic, so I’m constantly stopping at lights and putting my feet down – I’d really prefer to flat-foot or get very close to it with both feet, not just tiptoe.

So my questions for you:

1. Based on my measurements, do you think I’ll be able to comfortably reach the ground with both feet? Will the suspension sag help enough?

2. Have any riders around my height (or with a similar inseam) made it work without lowering the bike?

3. If possible, could you please post a photo of yourself sitting on an NC750X while touching the ground with both feet? Seeing real-world examples of how someone my height fits on this bike would help enormously.

Thanks a lot in advance – I really appreciate any insight or advice you can share!

Hi there,

I'm preparing for a longer road trip and was wondering how I could fix a bag onto the passenger seat without needing to put it away at the gas station. I played around with a 4-way expander strap and was able to fix the bag as well as easily open the seat (check pictures). I'm quite happy with the result.

My two questions now are:
- Is that safe enough for higher speed (max 130 kph)
- Are there better straps that also work as an anti-theft device (at least on a basic level) if I want to make a stop in a city?

Thanks in advance!

I am looking to change the original Mirrors in my NC750x 2017 model. However I am finding hard to find pictures of examples online.

Has someone changed their mirrors? What did you change it to? I am unsure on what model I want I am just sure i hate the ones that come with the bike

I know that the bars aren't adjustable from factory, I just want a clue on where to start looking for a bar raiser for this bike, so I can eliminate the small forward lean I have to do to grab the handles properly.

I can feel myself getting slightly tired after an hour or two on the bike, and I want it to be more comfortable on longer trips.

Hi Everyone,

I am looking for side panniers to hook on my bike.

At the moment I already have the Kappa/Givi railings installed so I must use those ecosystems since I am currently swapping my 30l Top case from my scooter to my NC (Which eventually needs upgrading as well).

I am still new when it comes to bikes however I would like to have a trip to Sicily and eventually Italy and perhaps further.

Ive done some research and larger than 36l is not recommended unless im doing 10+ days. As the bike can be unstable, according to what they said of course.

What do you guys recommend for a beginner to go with? I was looking at the KVC35N.

I will also be travelling with my wife, if it wasnt for her, I can survive with just a top case 😛

Hey everyone,

I'm new here and just got a bike. I've seen that all the NC 750x bikes where I live have crash bars, skid plates, and all that. But, I've never seen any of you guys using that kind of protection here.

I'm just wondering, why is that? Is it just my first impression, is it common and I'm wrong, or is it just an insurance thing if you fall? :)

I read a few things online a while back stating that Honda intended to put a turbo model out. And that the engine is ideal for it. Anyone have any info about this? How hard would it be? Would it be possible with DCT? Willing to sacrifice the frunk to get 100 HP out of it.
