Breaking News - NEW HONDA ADV in the US -- NC700X

Rincewind:
This news is hard to believe.  We were just discussing this bike and it's potential price with Smeggy in another thread.  After 22-years Honda is coming back to the ADV market, and with a great price.

Fuel capacity - 3.7 gallons.

I have read it was made with fuel efficiency in mind and has a range of 240-miles.   :bigok:

The flipside is that it has an engine shared with the new Integra scooter.

Honda kinda takes on the Wee Strom/SV650. Looks to be a nice, affordable, versatile standard for paved road use with a little extra suspension travel (6") to soak up bad pavement.

I don't see any "adventure" in the mix though. Needs more suspension (8") and a 19" front wheel to go there IMO.

Rabidsnipe:
Cool.  I'm also really surprised to see this in the States.  I thought for sure we'd never see it.  I think I'll have to get a test ride just to see how weird it feels.  Ride reviews indicate the low rev range takes some getting used to.

And, I think this is probably one of the better looking new Hondas I've seen in a while.
