I've done 20,000 miles in 18 mouths on my bike which is identical to yours. All for pleasure just did 3,400 miles around Europe over 20 days. I only ever use Urban setting and as long as chain is adjusted correctly (it's got to be right) the throttle is fine. I average 57 mpg. Keep up the good work.
Good information. I did adjust the chain yesterday as I suspected it might need doing. Not ridden it since. Hopefully it'll do the trick. Ride safe and thanks again - appreciated 👍👍
Yep, I share your thoughts about the NT, I bought a six month old manual model with the voyager pack, I have done some of the upgrades as you (as you know)! including fitting the quickshifter that I absolutely love! I actually think the NT is a bit of a wolf in sheep's clothing, not high on kerbside appeal but a very quick road bike if you want it to be! suspension, balance, weight and brakes, all excellent. Very stable in high winds too, I did a tour in Cornwall the first week of June, it seemed everywhere I stopped someone would walk over and talk motorbikes! I'm off to Scotland in July, I can't wait 😀 Oh, I call mine Norman (NT = Norman Tebbit) the bike is the same colour as him to!
NC750x was my first choice. My friend Maurice has had one for years and rides on all terrains with it. But I could not get one at the time and so bought the NT1100. I do not understand Honda's worldwide marketing. I'd really like a CT125 Trail, but we don't get that here. Daft!! 👍👍
Excellent review. I have covered 13k now on mine and love it. The same 2 issues I also have. Mine is the DCT version and trying to feather that throttle on loose ground is a challenge with the weight not helping.
Hi dude, although you live not so hot country, do you feel some engine heat on your legs in city trafic on some hot summer days? Have a nice time!( I love all your videos, funny and informative)
Yes. It is a hot bike. My boots get warm especially when the fan comes on. Nice in UK (mostly), but not ideal on 25c+ days 🥵 Thanks for nice comments 👍👍
Sounds a looks great in my opinion, but i am looking at the NT but which one should i go for dvt or manual its just an age thing as im 61 now and looking to change my K1600 all the best mate
Try them both I did. I can't live without a clutch, but plenty of people do. I had an Africa Twin DCT, superb. You can't stall. But I missed nearly 50yrs of clutch control so manual from now on for me. Your results may differ. I am same age. Here's the DCT when I rode it: ruclips.net/video/2RBRgEd3LQo/видео.htmlsi=z9kPqBzoYCk3oMrz
Thanks for that video, always a good impression and fun review. I have commented before about your bike to replace my ageing 2011, 1200 GS, air/oil cooled, which I love, but has 52k on it now, 80k on my last one. Which is still lighter than the NT, (229kgs full ). But is EURO 3 , likes 98 Octane, will run ok on 95, but “pinks” under load. And 98 is becoming less frequent. Struggle in France, and not common in Scotland. Never wanted a water cooled GS, too heavy, and the 1300 GS is far too expensive, so BMW has finished for me sadly. Unless they put a R12 nine T engine in a GS frame…. Ha ! I live in the NW, like you, I’ve been to two Honda Dealers, Blackpool and Chester to try for a NT test ride and they are only DCT, which I don’t want. So it has put me off. But the NT is the only bike I would consider to replace my BM, and they do a lovely Red one now. Honda seem to be really pushing their DCT’s. Cheers, keep up the fun vid’s 👍🏻
Hi Mike. Thanks for kind feedback. It's just my hobby and don't take it too seriously. I got my bike from Youles, Manchester. They did have a manual demo last year. Maybe worth a call. And yes Honda really are into auto. E-clutch and DCT. Personally, like yourself, having a clutch is like having 2 wheels, on a motorbike - essential, part of the ride. There's always the new V-Stroms, the road going version looks interesting. Just a thought. Thanks for watching/commenting, it all adds to the fun. 👍
@@CodgerBiker things couldn’t be better thanks, I am all clear as I think I told you, and on November 04 will be retiring 33 years to the day I started with my present company and on December 31st if all goes to schedule will be first time grandparents , life’s great 😊
Well, apart from the fact that I trod on a white hot piece of bbq charcoal that had fell on the floor (yes I know shouldn’t have been in bare feet 🙄) second degree burns and the f900r sits in the garage unridden for the past month 😕
Things I love is a good title. But ... I do not find information on something. We all know ... no screen adjusting whilst driving, no heated seat, no shaft drive! But does it have TPMS ... (Tyre Presure Monitoring System)? I do not find it in the specs ... so ... It probebly doesn't. But that would be again something missing.

I collected my manual transmission with quick shifter yesterday and love it.
Congratulations 👍👍

Wolf in sheep's clothing. Spot on! Those who know, know. Enjoy your trip. Jealous. Ride safe!. 👍
On Friday, June 28, I receive the NT 1100 DCT from the dealer.
Congratulations. Ride safe! 👍👍
@@CodgerBiker You too, bro🤙🤙🤙
I have the 2024 Honda NC750x DCT but if they sold it here in the USA I would buy it yesterday. I can only pray .

I agree. Great bike in most aspects apart from that. 👍

Screens I’ve had a few, yes I seem to remember a few 😳 going on your duke 😵💫😆
Ha ha! Those who know, know! How are you getting along these days? 👍
@@CodgerBiker things couldn’t be better thanks, I am all clear as I think I told you, and on November 04 will be retiring 33 years to the day I started with my present company and on December 31st if all goes to schedule will be first time grandparents , life’s great 😊
That IS brilliant. Triple result. Enjoy your retirement (between nappies 😂). Are you going to upload bike videos like the rest of us retirees? 👍👍
Well, apart from the fact that I trod on a white hot piece of bbq charcoal that had fell on the floor (yes I know shouldn’t have been in bare feet 🙄) second degree burns and the f900r sits in the garage unridden for the past month 😕
Looks like it brought you luck. Like when a seagull craps on you. Hopefully you'll get back soon. 👍👍
The Alien Queen rides again! Not you CB. The bike 😂
I'm with you. For normal day to day riding, 100bhp or thereabouts is the sweet spot.
Ha ha! Alien Queen! I might change my channel name. 😂😂
I was a big fan of Orson Scott-Card too.
Also 100nm is great. I'm a big fan of torque 👍
@@CodgerBiker I was thinking more along the lines of James Cameron myself 😂
I'd guessed that. Just trying to out-geek you 👽
@@CodgerBiker Crack on! You'll easily win 😜
😂👍👍
Good on yer

Cheers. No it does not have that. But there is a 2025 model inbound, so maybe worth checking the options on that once it emerges. 👍
@@CodgerBiker Yeps ... seen it. The screen change is the most important one. Thx.
