As an older rider I enjoy the stability of the bike, especially when conditions are wet. I feel comfortable starting/stopping/resting on all surfaces and weather conditions. I have ridden at 60MPH and the ride is still smooth. I also feel safe in all kinds of traffic because I am easily visible to other drivers Show less

This is by far the nicest bike that I have ever owned, it’s capabilities far exceed my own….it is light and nimble but still sticks to the road very well in the gusty high wind…This bike is very easy to ride and you will find this an ideal bike for a beginner, newly licensed rider to gain experience…. That can grow with you as you gain experience and confidence,,, With it’s six speed transmission and power band it easily cruises at any speed, from urban city street speeds to open highway...it is perfect for touring with it’s powerful 853 CC V Twin Engine and long range fuel capacity, giving it a range of almost 200 miles between fuel stops ...That coupled with the comfortable Italian Leather Seat… And the maintenance requirements are so easy if you are inclined to do your own work, or even if you do hire a shop or mechanic...first of all...Shaft Drive so No Chain to have to deal with…. With the bike on the center stand …. You can easily remove both tires…And that is wonderful if you ever have a tire problem on the road... And for the rest of the routine service, you can easily change all of the fluids with your bike on the center stand, Engine Oil and Filter…. Transmission and Final Drive, are all easily accessible with the bike on the center stand and there is also room for the drain pan too….There is no coolant to worry about, and checking and setting the valves couldn't be easier.. Nothing to pull, like the gas tank to gain access, because the cylinder heads are right out in the open and you check and set them the old way no shims or disassembly of the valves or head with the lock nut adjustment… I have enjoyed riding this through the mountains and canyons and across the open range through the occasional herd of cattle and surprising deer or antelope, but even the trip to check the mail, or to the store always brings a smile to my face...

I owned this bike for about five years. I've ridden many bikes over the years and the NC700 is undoubtedly one of the most comfortable and enjoyable bikes in the Commuter/Sport-Touring segment. The bike has a very low center of gravity. Combined with the smooth automatic transmission it handles everything with ease. I didn't do any off-roading, however the bike simply needs some dual-sport tires and a skid plate to be an adventure ready machine. Maintenance is also very easy and infrequent besides keeping the chain properly lubed. Recently upgraded from the 2013 to a 2022...... same great bike with a few modern enhancements. Show less

Not a Honda Nighthawk 750! The dropdown menu doesn't have my bike, a Honda Shadow 600 VLX. This bike has been a reliable toy for 21 years. It's given me the ride, the play, the outdoors, the get-away-from-it-all that I bought it for. Bought it when I was 47. Haven't had time to ride much in the past few years so it's time to pass it on. It's a lot of bike and a lot of accessories for the price. Perfect for newer riders or smaller riders and women who don't want a big, heavy bike. New bikes are too expensive for people starting to ride. I would rate Comfort at 4 stars and the rest of the metrics above at 5. Show less

This motorcycle has been sitting in my garage for over a year. It belonged to my children's father who pass, ed away a week ago. He never rode it and he wasn't attached to it. I've ridden it way more than he did. Mike has passed away and I'm going to use the proceeds from the sale of the bill for Mike's burial. Show less

This was my first motorcycle and I absolutely loved it. I felt it had just the right amount of power for me. Really fun to ride. It was a little unstable at highway speeds. It's a lighter bike and it's naked so that's expected. Top speed was about 130mph. This motorcycle seems super reliable. Seems like you would have to really neglect it before it started giving any problems. If I could upgrade without selling the SV I would keep it forever LOL Show less

Nice for running about town, decent build quality, a lot of third party upgrades and add-ons available. Decent balance and pickup, very reliable as is basic (a good thing less complexity means less to go wrong). A little small for me at 6’ tall, but shorter friends love it. Show less

This bike is light with a 107 M8 engine. It pulls hard and fast. Really, you better be prepared when you twist this throttle. The quality is on par with the bigger bikes. I have had zero problems in almost two years. The tranny is smooth and shifts are effortless. The brakes are anti-skid so you can brake as hard as you want without skidding a tire. It sounds nice from the factory. You can add what you want to make this bike singularly your style. This much power and quality is a good deal for the price! Show less

I bought my XS750D 2 1/2 years ago, after sitting in a barn in Medford, OR for 15 years. It was very well preserved but not running. Once I got it home, removed the cylinder head, and the center valve was burned out. After the valve was replaced and everything polished, the head was reinstalled. The carbs were rebuilt, all fluids replaced, new points and condenser and tires, and it was ready. The bike runs like new and has the distinctive sound only a 4-stroke triple has. The 3-into-1 exhaust is rare and I had to buy another that was dent-free. Appearance-wise the bike is a 9. It has an oil cooler that was installed when the bike was young, well recommended, as the center cylinder runs hot. The seat is comfortable, and the suspension is cushy at its mildest setting with a very responsive fork. The shaft-drive is maintenance-free and bulletproof. Vibration is minimal, and the bike is comfortable. It's not a canyon racer, but not slow. Currently it has under 29,000 miles. Nothing else looks like it, even when it was new. Very satisfied with it. Show less

Best performance and high end suspension, MTC, Lean angle sensitive ABS at a reasonable price. The most Technology on any bike in this segment, 5 inch TFT display showing turn by turn navigation can’t beat this. Show less
