Im supprised it did so well on the bedford bypass 😂

I bought my 88 nx 250 with 900 miles on it in 1997. I lived in Alaska at the time. Honda would do very well to bring this bike back! 26 liquid cooled 4 valve horsepower! The bike kept up with my buddies 1995 Dr 350! Modern 250 cc thumpers actually have LESS horsepower than this bike. Anybody with a surron or similar ebikes would love this bike! I saw tests where this bike would go from 0-60 in 6.1 seconds. Thats very impressive. I used to race anybody willing to go off the line and the bike did well, it surprized people with how quick it was to 60. After that the acceleration wasnt great and would top out arou d 80-85. Highway speeds were definitely doable. And the range on these bikes is quite decent. I believe it's a 2.4 gallon tank including the reserve and will go over 150 miles on a fill! I don't think there is an ebike out there with this kind of power that will give you even 100 miles on a charge. These bikes are an absolute gem! Back when they came out there wasn't a big market for the bike but I believe if it were to come out now the bike could be exactly the same as my 88 and people would be extremely happy with it!! It was very reliable and easy to work on.

Anyway about the NX, I've owned it since May 2021. All I had to do is put a new tube in the front tire and I replaced the front master cylinder and changed the fluids, and bam I was on the road in the wind. I rode with the original tires for nearly 2k miles and then I put a set of Shinko 712 street tires on it because lately I mainly ride street. But when I ride dirt I just switch to my dirt tires. Only mods I've done so far is I took the original handlebars off only because they are too low IMO. So I put a pair of pro taper sport minis and man what a huge difference in handling & comfort big time (I highly recommend trying that). And a set of Nelson-Rigg dual sport RG-020 saddle bags they come in handy and fit like a glove I love em for sure. Hopefully you still have your NX if so I'd love to hear about it. Take Care & Keep Rockin🤘

I'm selling mine 😜

For most riders, even those shorter than average, once you're riding, that seat height is not an issue at all. You can also have the bike lowered by a competent mechanic, if necessary.

Literally about to do the same thing - same bike, got my license a month ago 😅 - but all in Germany (I’m from the uk)

Hey man, which throttle control you got?

@@JanChacn the push button ‘under mount’ one.

Boots, yes a bit. Back, no.

Good point. I make it a habit of tapping my brake light while keeping one eye in the mirror and the other out front. Ya never know who's paying attention.

When riding in the rain or mud does it splatter on your shoes, or on your back?

Much appreciated friend! Keep the 2 wheels down.

Sounds like you really went all in on the TU just like Enrique did. We would love to see a photo of your setup, if you want to send an image over the [email protected], we will feature you on our story and page.

@@fulldumpmotoofficial if I can.. I'm an old school e-dummy.

We really appreciate it, thank you!

Another note about the power...the first bike I rode was a two stroke, and pulling on the throttle in first gives me that same vibe. Short first, but the fist two gears are pretty damn fun.

A white tank eh? Don't see many of that colour way around. We would love to see your bike, if you ever want to send a pic over to [email protected], and your tag on instagram we could give you a shout out

@@fulldumpmotoofficialjust posted a short video of her from today.

For oil, I think we just used good ol' Honda GN4 10W 40 oil and filter to go with it, and for the coolant we used Motul Coolant 1

@@fulldumpmotoofficial thank you so much ! Appreciate it!
