What's up Guys? Anyone got input on Honda's NC700X?

I looked at them pretty seriously. On paper, they sound great.

Trouble is, in practice, it's a Honda. Hondas (with a few notable exceptions) are like toasters. They are plenty competent, and leave little to complain about, but they just don't really do anything for me. They work great, but there just isn't any spark there.

If you're in that market (and I'm finding myself there), you should really seriously consider the Versys and the V/Wee-Strom as alternatives. They cost less, perform as well or better, and are more fun.
