This is exciting. Can't wait to meet you guys.
I've been working on my 350 this week, which is kind of torture. haha... Put my re-sprung forks back on, put a 250SX-F end cap onto my 350 silencer with a home made spark arrester which will really free up the flow, going to adjust the TPS setting and check the valves soon. I might need to take it around the block this week or I might go nuts

Nice bike. Those are some aggressive looking treads on those tires. Also, sorry about the scuff mark on the bag...I thought I could get my stubby leg over it. ? (hopefully it wasn't the bike you bought)It's not at my place yet and the show picture is less than optimal but here it is...

Wow! Skid plate, crash bars, tkc80, aluminum paniers that thing is well set-up. We'll definitely break it in easy though, I've got a ton of easy scenic gravel routes up here, avoid full trail sections at first.It's not at my place yet and the show picture is less than optimal but here it is...

I didn't realize that Honda had this model. Is it the 750? Manual or dct? Either way a nice gravel tourer, congratulations again.

(hopefully it wasn't the bike you bought)Lol...don't worry I did the same thing. The centre stand was on and didn't expect that thing to be so high. The salesman look at it and he didn't say anything but you could see it bothered him. At least I ended up buying it. I don't think those boxes will be on that much most of the time anyway. Funny cause the scratch I added was just beside another at the same exact spot. Guess we need to get more flexible

Yea it's a 750. It's manual. It was a dealer demo it has 3000km on it. I just need to add some handguards and it will be good to go. Can't wait for the weather to be a bit better. Snow all melted here so hopefully nothing more comes down

I did it on purpose because the last time he jumped outta the stroller and started running while I was getting him a water. I figured this would be easier to spot if it happened again. Last time I almost needed an AED. ?
What did @iceman mean about manual transmission?

These bikes come with DCT which is a semi-automatic transmission. Click to up and downshift. Thanks JB!
Btw, this is not a stock Honda bike. The dealer added all the extras and sold it like that.

These bike model (nc750x) can come with "dual clutch transmission" it's sorta automatic but you still have buttons if you want to override the gear you are in. Honda is getting real good reviews on that system. Not sure it's for everyone.

This is the bike I may have naively mistaken for the Africa twin in another thread.

Seems like something that would be useful in trail situations. From the view of someone who has never ridden trail. Maybe they were aiming it at a market segment like myself?

It's not stock for sure. They call it "travel edition" I don't know if it's equipped at the dealer or by Honda. Nam did I hallucinate that picture? I'm sure I saw it but for some reasons it's gone now.
