..... seriously, dressing up crappy commuter bikes in fancy race replica fairings is just not cricket ...This guy gets it.
The market disagrees. They're selling CBRs by the bucketload. Probably because they're cheap, they're good, and they look good. I wouldn't mind if Honda made more in this direction. It's a fine little bike - there's nothing wrong with it, and there's especially nothing wrong with it for the price.
The NX700 series on the other hand I hope dies a quick and painless death. A bike with a Honda Jazz engine which also weighs nearly as much as a Honda Jazz - ew. Please no.
Odd that you like the CB'r' 250 but don't like the NX700... They're both overweight, underpowered, uninspiring bikes. The only saving grace for the CB'r' is that it's really cheap...
What can I say, I tested the cbr twice now, one time up doi suthep where it was a lot of fun to squeeze the hell out of the little engine, and once in direct comparison to the ninja 250 and I liked it. Its "underpowered" but what do you expect from a 250... Certainly did not feel less powerful than my old d-tracker 250. Its a fine little bike, the price is killer, and it looks good.
I have admittedly not tried the nx700 but I dont think i would like a bike that tops out at 6500 rpm. The idea behind this bike just sounds wrong, its based on the observation that people dont often rev above 6500 - clearly they didnt consult me there - and less HP and 30kg more compared to the Versys... what a turd!
