Dimis where abouts are you ? if in the Uk, I would reject the bike. incidentally, what screen is on the bike ?

Hallo, i do have a fairly new NC 750X DCT '24 model which has only 1.500 km. I liked the bike from the begining and i think that it suits me perfectly. It runs very well and i did the first service at 980 km with Honda oem oil and filters. I could say a lot of good things about it but i in this forum owners are already familiar with everything. The only bad i had to get it out of my chest is that i noticed when the bike is hot after an hours ride there is a knocking sound at idle. Seem like tapet sound........I went to the dealer and after they listen to it they suggest that we have to change

Why?

As long as it doesn't look like an alien blob you'll be fine.

The telescopic magnet and kitchen paper towel are your friend.....😀

Thank goodness. A valve timing error for whatever reason is serious. Incorrect assembly is the least worrying. The list of other potential causes is long and expensive!. Valve clearances, on the other hand, is a straightforward DIY job on sensible engines like the NC. Take your time doing it, have mercy on the locknuts, and don’t drop anything into hard to reach places or you will be rehearsing all your bad words.

Likely using the wrong nomenclature, I mean where you stick a feeler gauge in between the taps on the cylinder head. I've picked up everything from YouTube basically. It was do it myself or pay Honda ever increasingly extortionate servicing prices and often finding out it hadn't been done properly anyway.

Do you suspect the timing has moved, or is it a typo?

Coolant tomorrow with valve timing, spark plugs and air box.

I don't automatically change brake fluid every two years. I measure the moisture content and use that as a guide. But I don't commute, nor do I ride in adverse weather unless on a trip, so my brake fluid always looks like new at two years. I use the five-year coolant too, when I first change it. I favour not disturbing things at the specified intervals if there is no real need. That said, at the OP's mileage I'd do both. +1 on replacing the oil (but not filter) again after a few hundred miles. Best get rid of the rest of the chocolate pudding.....

May be worth changing again in 1-2k miles as way of a flush.

Don't worry about it. More importantly, has the brake fluid been changed and is the coolant due? Both on 2 year intervals rather than miles and both can ruin your day. Andy

School boy error, read the manual wrong and thought I only had to change the oil every 16k (no wonder I thought the NC was economical to run). So it's on 32k and missed its 24k oil change. Oil was black with a tablespoon of chocolate pudding in it. Have just fitted new filter and oil. Any recommendations/words of wisdom?

EBC HH also, currently running EBC Semi-sintered Touring and, IMO, they're shite.

What @Egg on Leggs said. My money would be on the side stand switch, it lives a hard life.

IIRC they stay on until successful completion, the normal explanation is engine too cold, so run the engine. There's an "L" displayed if it is low temp, if very cold it's a Capital L then goes to lower case (I think)

hi guy, new to the group. i have a 2019 honda nc750x dct did the dct reset as normal but now got D and S stuck on the dash. i know its been asked before but how do i get it back to normal. any help would be great thanks in advance .

Check the safety switches on the clutch lever and the side stand.

my honda nc700s when i press the first gear,the engine goes out.can someone help me and explain what is the cause of the failure?

Contact Wemoto. They’ll make sure you get the right parts. Just put your bike and year into their website. Really good reliable company. I’m assuming you’re in the UK. Hope that helps

Is it adjusted correctly? It'll make noises if it isn't. How old is the chain? If it needs replacing the renew the sprockets too.

As standard the front brake pads are sintered, Honda know best, EBC HH are as good if not better than OEM.

EBC sintered HH for me. Did try organic but I'm heavy on the brakes and went through a set in a couple of months. If your light on the brakes then organic will be kinder on the disks.

I started hairing noises and skipping on my chain but I couldn't find the original one mady for my nc750s 2017, can someone guide me on how to get a similar one (I don't have the user manual)
