Honda NC 750 Manual - Acceleration, 0-100, top speed, sound onboard (POV 4K60fps)

[@Watson2108]

My 2015 NC 750 X DCT did 186 on speedo once. It is restricted to 48hp/35kw. 6th gear is only overdrive though. 5th hits the rev limiter at 174 and in 6th it usually doesn't have enough power to go much faster. 0-100 is very good though. Did multiple runs with a gps app. Test track has a slight slope so did 3 runs downhill, 3 runs uphill and took the average. Used manual mode, squeezed each gear as much as possible, layed flat on the tank. 0-100 is basically 5 secs flat. Around 4.7 down and 5.4 uphill. 1/4 mile ranged from 13.7 to 14.3, so 14 secs. This matches perfectly what an unrestricted 750 does. At 90kg I am probably lighter than the average NC rider though and most won't use manual mode and lay flat😅. After 130 the times are slightly worse than the 55hp version which I expected. Low down power is the same after all, only top end is different. Very impressed with it considering the 230kg weight and only 48hp. My 2019 Svartpilen 401 with 42hp and 166kg weight was like almost a sec slower 0-100 and only managed 172kph. I lost 30kg since then though😂

@@Watson2108 hey would u recommend this bike for a somewhat beginner to moderate experienced rider? That prefers an automatic or adv 160? Any suggestions

[@Watson2108]

@@rickybobbydastar6534 Absolutely. The DCT is awesome. If you are used to a scooter, the DCT is even better and it has quite a bit of power. It is very heavy but you don't feel it when riding. When pushing it around be careful though, if it tips to the other side you can't really hold it.

I have nc750x 2022 manual - max speed i reached 198kmh based on the display. But the 6th gear is a shit, only the 5th is giving power and speed. But the speed is possible only with good weather no wind. And i think for only 43kw its quiet ok.

[@ArtyYeo]

This is video is what I need. Thanks for making it. Over in the US, the freeway speeds are posted at 80MPH and the actual traffic flow is more often 85 MPH (137 KPH). So, I want a bike that can travel safely at those speeds. Did you feel a lot of vibrations when you were above 125 KPH ? How was the wind buffeting?

[@glackandbold7270]

I rented an NC750X in Ireland in 2018. It had Givi hard luggage, and that probably robbed a little speed. It was most comfortable at an indicated 130 kph (probably 125 kph actual; figure high 70s). For a while on the motorway I rode at 140, but it didn't really like it-- almost no throttle response at that speed. Bottom line: it's marginal at US interstate speed. I wouldn't go there.

[@glackandbold7270]

As for wind buffeting, I thought it was OK. No real issues. The bike is boring to ride, but it is really good on gas, and would probably run forever. As a pure commuter, it's great, but not at higher interstate speeds. On 60-65 mph 2 lanes and suburban riding, it would be ideal.

[@drewmorg.]

@@glackandbold7270 Thanks for keeping it real. A lot of people like to play up its abilities at this speed.

[@glackandbold7270]

@@josiahgarrison647 I frankly highly doubt an NC can hit that speed on flat ground without a stiff tailwind. It might be geared to hit that speed, but it just doesn't have the horsepower to get there. I don't think an NC makes much more than 50 or 60 hp, tops. That's a 105-110 mph bike on a good day.

[@kwk43]

6,70 seconds to 100 is pretty meh, this bike easily does 100 kph in 6 sec

[@DerpEye]

This bike only makes sense with the DCT. It's its only strong point. The manual version doesnt make any sense, since the competition has much better bikes for the same money.

[@kwk43]

@@DerpEye What kind of competition do you see? The closest competitor would be the TRK 502 and that thing is slow af. Idk if you want to compare it to the tracer 700 or the Versys 650 but that´s an entirely different class.

@@kwk43 there’s like 10k mileage dcts floating around for around 4K if speed isn’t an issue it’s a really good bike for the money given if you want to tour then it’s ideal I’d say!

im in the marker for a new motorcycle... am stuck between the Versys 650, Tracer 700 and the NC750x. ANy thoughts?

[@DerpEye]

Consider Vstrom650, it's the most balanced one. If you can, try the Honda though. The Tracer is the most sporty, very similar to the mt07, and the less comfortable. The Versys is ugly in my opinion, and is getting old at this point, but it's still an overall good bike, very neurtral riding and engine. Vstrom has 19" wheel in the front, and an awsome engine, and is the most comfortable of the bunch. Honda has the best fuel economy and luggage capacity, get it with the DCT, otherwise it's not worth it.

@@Rrrrrrricky56789 well, I've ridden it and what I've stated is true in every aspect. Besides, for the same money I got myself a slightly used Africa Twin last year, so there are alternatives :D.

Those are some pretty dire choices. If you want a pure commuter, or just want to save on fuel, get the NC. Otherwise, get the Tracer and at least have an engine with a little charisma.

This is way slower than my RC390 and WAY!!!!slower than the VFR750! Amazing Honda managed to make a 750 this slow.

[@johnroe3915]

That's because this is a commuter bike. Honda purposely detuned the engine for high mileage and fuel consumption. Its the top selling motorcycle in europe. It literally has a built in trunk. And some are automatic. If they wanted a race bike they would have built it. They did built the championship bike Marquez won in motogp.

[@F-bot]

Its still 0 to 100km/h in 4 seconds, you will never need more power than that. The top speed is fine since most countries have a 120km/h speed limit. If you want to tour Germany just rent a hypermotard there while on vacation. Even hypermotard riders spend 99% of the time under 120km/h
