Like I wrote earlier, comparing the NC700X to a Plymouth Prowler, the "adventure" variant is strictly a styling exercise and the bike is NOT intended to go head-to-head with a Wee. The only thing equal between the two is two cylinders, two wheels and about the same displacement.
But the design and function is TOTALLY different from what most folks perceive as a "motorcycle". It's not really...it's a cleverly disguised, two wheeled automobile, considering the sourcing of the motor from a Honda automobile, with low revs, WAY under-square design, single throttle-body injection, single OHC, roller-rocker valve control, automotive-style fuel storage (c'mon, how many cars put the gas tank between your knees?) and the list goes on and on.
This bike IS the Honda Civic of motorcycles, plain and simple...which is NOT a bad thing, but "Adventure" bike, it ain't and any comparisons with a Wee are beyond silly.
If I was in the market for a 3rd bike, and my commute was shorter, an NC700 in either the X or S variant, would probably be in my garage by Christmas. I could probably live with the 47hp for a short commute, but coming off an FJR or ZRX, it would get dreadfully, drastically dull after about 30 minutes.
"HEY HOWIE....WHERE'S YOUR HELMET?????"
How long you think it's gonna take someone to fab up an aux tank to go in the fake tank??
