I was awash with indecision over this and a 996...

One of the reasons and considerations for change was the weight of the NCX. With a knee that oftens gives out on me when under load, maneuvering the bike in and out of parking spaces and across my garden to its parking spot is becoming increasingly difficult. So putting my practical head on I checked out the weight difference between the NCX and the MT07. Turns out its about 7 stone in old money! That is going to be undeniably noticeable when wheeling it about...

Academic really as they're probably both too heavy!

Cheers Mate. List is down to XTX and MT07, but I've started looking at that bike Le Fromage Grand has as well and I confess to looking at the old photos of my Harley and remembering what a great time I had on that...

Too fast for you

In seriousness, I don't think you'd like it, it's very much an inline 4 750, very linear power and likes to be screamed, it's also quite a heavy bike (214KG wet), you don't notice the weight riding it, but I do wheeling it out of the garage. I honestly think an MT07 or MT09 would suit you better.

So, the Honda is hauling 229kg about with 54bhp and the Yamaha is hauling 184kg about with 72bhp.

Wonder which is quicker of the line?

[KungFooBob]

What about one of the 300cc A1 bikes that all the manufacturers sell these days.

I reckon the CB300R looks ace.



143kg and a mighty 31bhp, I reckon it would still be a laugh.

[KungFooBob]

Or the Z400.

167kg and 44bhp.

[KungFooBob]

When I said A1 a mean A2...
