ted 5,734 Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 NC700X / Overview 2012 NC700X: New Concept – Fun Crossover The NC700X crossover offers the long-travel suspension, agility and commanding riding position of an off-road bike in an overall package with high standards of stability, braking and engine performance. It promises a fun, engaging riding experience together with the practicality and ease of use that make it a machine eminently suitable for daily commuting. At the heart of the NC700X is a purpose-built engine and transmission package. The liquid-cooled, in-line 2-cylinder 670ccengine is a lightweight and compact unit with a low centre of gravity. It offers a very usable power delivery with strong levels of torque at low to medium rpm combined with low exhaust gas emissions and outstanding fuel economy (78.8mpg WMTC mode. Tested in D-Mode). On the NC700X there is the option to enjoy this new engine with the second generation of Honda’s innovative Dual Clutch Transmission, offering both manual gear shifting and fully automatic functionality – a suitably advanced and versatile core for an innovative new motorcycle. The NC700X has been designed with a secure internal storage space large enough to accommodate a full-face helmet, located where you would typically find the fuel tanks. It is also offered with Honda’s Combined Anti-Lock Braking System (C-ABS) as an option. It offers the practicality of a commuter with easy handling in a crossover styling.

Guest chickenflaps Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 I think the ABS is standard, although this posting says it's an option - not sure who's right now! Link to post
Guest Mi_ka Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 (edited) Depends on the country and what the importer policy is. They even mix the reported hp numbers between countries. Edited August 29, 2012 by Mi_ka Link to post
Guest turbodieseli4i6 Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 I think the ABS is standard, although this posting says it's an option - not sure who's right now! Its not an option in the states. DCT has it and the six speed standard doesn't Link to post
Guest McDragon Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 Isn't it obligatory in the EU on this engine size? I think I read that the 125cc don't have to have it. Link to post

Thosoneill 301 Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 I would simply do an engine oil and filter change being careful to select the proper oil for your particular model of motorcycle which will be in the owners handbook - perhaps do a visual check of the brakepads and ensure that all of the lights are fully operational - I certainly wouldn’t be taking it to the dealer for that 1 Link to post
