This is one I have been waiting for as have many of my RU-vid friends have been asking if I can test ride the 2021 Honda NC750X.
So, In this first ride video, I will be running through some of the changes to the bike and making some small comparisons to the 2017 Honda NC750X model which I own.
In short, I found the 2021 NC a big step forward in seat comfort and it is for sure, A far more dynamic ride.
I hope you enjoy the video. I will be doing more on this bike, including a full review. So if you could click the "like" button and subscribe and hit the bell then you will be sure not to miss any of the other videos I will be making with this bike.

I have had my 2021 dct nc750x for about 2 months now and ridden about 3000 KMS. This is my third NC 1st was a dct, then a manual and now back to dct Simply, best one of the 3 by far. Dct is much smoother with changes both up and down The rider modes are handy but I tend to ride quite a lot in manual mode as I like to be in control of the gears but flick it into auto mode when in can’t be bothered mode Standard mode is similar to S1 in the older bike and sport = s3. Rain mode is similar to d on the older model Engine braking despite you not feeling the difference does mean it drops gears quicker when you shut off the throttle when set on the highest setting (user mode) vs holding the gear in the lowest EB setting. Acceleration is much better than the older model from a standing start and the speed you reach in 2 and 3 is much higher due to the higher red line. It will easily do 70mph / 120kmh in 3rd for example whereas this was not possible on the older models. Seat is hard although flat and I struggle more than 2 hours in the saddle without a stop I’m 188 / 6’ 2” tall and the short screen is much better than the short screen on the old model and offers surprisingly good wind protection although it does generate quite a bit of noise. The test bike I tried had the Honda touring screen fitted and I found it created a lot of buffeting Suspension seems more compliant than the older model on the std setting particularly over speed bumps I have the Honda panniers and top box and this makes a good touring bike - just came back from a 1000km trip As the bike is lower and is about the same weight this is not an off road bike IMO I tend to ride it fairly hard and find the fuel economy is about the same as the old model. The nc750x is now a great all rounder now - a bike you can use commuting to work, with luggage can travel all over Europe on all types of road, and a bike you can now blast around the lanes at the weekend All for a price that will not break the bank.

@exeterrider 2 года назад

I told you I would get to ride one in the end Mark. I rememebr your mail 3 months ago ...Took me a while Ha! Yes it's a much better bike overall.

@akagi007 2 года назад

Please, allow me to disagree on one particular thing. Difference between engine braking in standard mode (2 of 3bars) and sport mode (3/3 bars) is huge. Still new on big bikes (2000 km on 21 NC) so I experimented with modes during two trips (600 and 1000 km) and find out that EB on sport is really strong - sometimes too strong. Other think is that in Standard mode DCT tend to hold higher gear and acceleration uphill is sometimes very poor. In that case helps to manually shift down or hardly twist the throttle and DCT computer find out you want more power and you are not interested in saving money and planet and... vrrrrrrrrrrr

@exeterrider 2 года назад

Fair enough mate, that was the first ride so maybe I'll change my mind when I rode it more 👍

@roviwoteap2375 2 года назад

How easy it to manhandle? I went down from a VFR800X to a CB500X because at 240kg, I found the Crossrunner too heavy to wheel around. Plus it was a little too high for me with a wide’ish seat (30” inside leg).

@philiprobinson2011 2 года назад

Great review. As an owner of one of these bikes, I was very pleased to hear your views of the bike, especially as you have also owned the previous model. I thought your comment about the engine braking settings not being very different was contrary to my experience. I have found the engine to be particularly sensitive to the throttle position when trying to ride in town at a constant 30mph. The ride can get a little jerky, especially if the road is uneven, due to any slight movement of my hand on the throttle causing an instant response from the engine. I have now set the user mode to replicate standard mode, but with the engine braking setting set to minimum. With minimal engine braking, low speed constant riding is now so much smoother.

@exeterrider 2 года назад

Thanks Philip, I will try try that 👍

@philiprobinson2011 2 года назад

@@exeterrider I should have added that I have the manual version so it may not have the same effect on the DCT.

@exeterrider 2 года назад

@@philiprobinson2011 Ahh Yes that will make a big difference I think. It's the DCT that allows the engine braking and governs it. Good post though Thank you.

@KTU17N 2 года назад

Hi, I've found that my NC DCT is difficult to stay at 30mph. Between 28 and 32mph the bike is constantly changing from 3rd to 4th gear. To combat this I've always select rain mode for around town, rain mode holds onto 4th gear at a lower speed. But I will now have a play with the settings and adjust the engine braking. Great vid and a good tip Philip. I've had my NC now for just over a year now and done 16,500 mile, absolutely love the bike. My tip if you want better mpg, use E5 petrol. Just averaged 94mpg with a steady trip around North Wales.

@exeterrider 2 года назад

Amazing economy isn't it. Sometimes it's less twitchy in sport mode I find👍

@plymouthjanner8940 2 года назад

@mikegreen6113 2 года назад

Another great review, wish I had waited and got this new model rather than my 2020 DCT last November, oh well. That route is my usual one if I want to get out for an hour, Teignmouth, Newton Abbott Exeter, (Bridge for a breakfast roll), Starcross, Dawlish Warren, Dawlish and back home. Just need to correct you on one point, blue is definitely the faster colour and mine is even faster with wheel rim tapes fitted!!

@exeterrider 2 года назад

Utter rubbish, old mans rover red has a better wax on it to make it faster - Although yes I can't compete with rim stickers. Yes thats my route too although I pop down to Babbacombe. Not sure if you know Paul who goes the the Teignmouth bike night? He has a 2021 Blue NC. I interviewed him tonight. Nice chap.

@jeffgravitt3732 2 года назад

Hullo from Northern California. I've had my 2022 model for a few weeks now and have found everything you note is pretty well correct. I ordered the taller screen even before I'd taken delivery of the bike. I rode it around for a while with the small screen, changed it out over this past weekend, and the difference, although not huge, is certainly noticeable, with less wind noise and a little better protection. My two biggest gripes are the lack of cruise control - my right hand actually falls to sleep after a rather short time, and the saddle is HARD at the front, while the shape of the cushier rear portion pushes me forward into the hard part. I've also installed handlebar risers that move the bars up and back a little and am currently fiddling with adjustment. Now, I'm a rather short fellow at 5'5" on a good day, with 28" inseam, so getting my 62 year old hips to swivel over the saddle is just about at my limit. Finding a pad for the saddle may be difficult. We shall see. In the meantime, keep your very good videos coming, and thank you!

That's great, I appreciate your feedback. Thanks

I own a 2014 manual model which I love so much I could not get myself to upgrade to the Africa Twin, which I also love. Although I would like more power, it is probably enough. Hearing your opinion on the improvements on the new model, I am certainly intrigued and will need to take it on a test ride. Thanks for a very informative review.

@exeterrider 2 года назад

My pleasure Hannes. Yes they are like something totally new. I think the 2021 offers something inbetween the 2014 NC and the africa twin. So this could be the change. The 2014 is nice for plodding around on where as the 2021 is alot more sporty. Thanks for watching. Let me know if you do buy one 👍

@geireinarsen3422 Год назад

Nice review, Exeter Rider! I have a little story that might interest both you as well as your followers. I´m a Norwegian bloke riding the mountain passes of Norway as well as coastal highways here in Norway. I really recommmend people trying out touring in Norway. Spectacular landscapes and lovely sweeping roads as well as twisties. Last season I fell for the temptation treating myself with buying the Honda NT1100. Let´s for now just say I rode it until September when I got rid of it. Yes, the NT1100 is a well equipped bike, but cumbersome due to its higher center of gravity and overall weight. It is also a bit more thirsty, averaging 4,2 l/100km. Touring weight (top box and side panniers fully packed) I averaged 4,4 l/100km. Mind you, I had the manual version. The NT1100 is fairly good regaring wind/weather protection, but I had to get a taller wind screen due to turbulence issues. The price for the NT1100 I find (after owned it) is a bit on the deer side. I honestly can´t justify it. I´m 6,1 tall with an 32 inseam leg. Didn´t cramp up on it from the seat to peg ratio, so leg position didn´t become uncomfortably until a couple og hours or so in the saddle. Now, I like to stretch my legs after an hour of riding anyways, so I don´t think the seat to peg ration on the NC will be any problem for me. I´ve from the get go already ordered the tall Givi touring wind screen, centre stand, original heated grips, a USB for the frunk, and a Givi Dolomiti 46 litre top box. I do mostly touring and day trips, and appreciate frugality, comfort and practicality. I´m pretty much done with bikes yearning for high rev riding. So, when I read that the new NC750X would get an extra few ponys and a general upgrade to its motor characteristics, I throw an order in for it. The finish is Candy chromosphere red NC750X DCT, and I can´t wait...

@exeterrider Год назад

Hi Geir, From what you just said there I think the NC will be a really good fit for you. Yes its less speced than the NT for big long tours but it will still do it really well and with good mileage returns, also it will be an easier bike to just pop to the shops on..... the front storage is something you wont be able to live without once you have it, its amazing...shame they lost the tank bag strapers on the 2022 but you can still get a bag on there. Thanks for your info there....if I could get to Norway I would be very happy.......I struggle getting out of Exeter these days ha!

@quentinjackson6015 2 года назад

Old model vs New 750X - You're the one to give us the facts! Sounds like Honda have done their homework with this bike. Would be curious to know how the DCT feels with that nice low revving engine, especially on a long journey....Cheers.

Interesting review, I rode the old model for a week exploring the mountains of Gran Canaria. Kept running it into the limiter for a while until I adapted to the engine. Loved the trunk where the petrol tank should be. If I was commuting and doing some leisure rides I would definitely consider the new model and improving the seat would be a big positive. A definite sensible bike purchase and a complete opposite to my MT10.

Not overly impressed with the T-Max, but I did buy it new without a test ride. Silly me. Bought it as clutch lever makes my hand pain worse, so I moved to no clutch. Wish I had gone for the 750 DX DCT, though. Watched a few vids for this new bike in Japanese, and understand them, but pleased to find this as the 1st English one I have seen. Thanks again.

Back to my current 750DCT I’m still suffering from wind noise from that silly screen, although I do have a cheap extension on top, it’s going to drive me mad riding up to the Yorkshire Dales in June, 300+ miles, what is the aftermarket screen you have on yours, did you say it was a Givi, if so what model please?

Because this is the Cheap commuter bike. They could quite happily add cruise control, the upgraded TFT, swing arm, upside down forks and dual front discs from the X-ADV/Forza 750 (same skeleton) but that would take the price up and probably over the £10,000 mark especially having to supply in DCT and Manual versions. It would also stray into the territory of the rumoured new CRF850L/Transalp. Probably the reason why the NC was lowered in height with this model to retain the commuter space at the low price and effectively taking the slot opened when the NC750S was removed given that adventure styling is more popular.

What is the suspension like compared to the previous model ? That's one of my dislikes , it crashes in and out of potholes and bad surfaces so I'm thinking of up-grading to a YSS front and rear . Going back to engine performance , if I want to make it really go I use manual mode and just wind the throttle and let it shift at the limiter , not much catches you !! Once again good video .

I would prefer that Honda offers the option that the helmet holder is a second petrol tank.

I am 6'3" tall is the bike going to be too small for me with the lower seat?. I am really thinking of this bike as it is just what i need. I'm 60 years old so i just want to use it for cruising. Thanks

The bike may Feel a little small to you but I think you would enjoy it....I don't think you will be cramped....sit on a 2022 forst to check of course

@@exeterrider Thank you for your help, I am hoping they will be making a taller seat in the future
