Its a 300 cc Honda Forza from 2013 and only cost about £2.000. Since then I have done some 10.000 miles in the last 4 years. My riding mate has subsequently bought the same so we both ride Forza's and he is 89 years of age. Nice going and wish myself to be as active at that age. as I am a mere baby of 74 yrs.

Before 1970 most bikes ridden were around 500CC of less, especially in Europe. When Honda came out with the CB750, I thought, man what a huge machine! Who needs all that power?

I bought a nine year old NC750X a few months ago and I may not have done so were it not for your videos. You videos gave me the confidence to know that I should be able to deal with most any maintenance item that comes along. I'm retired and have had a number of different motorcycles over the decades. This is the first one I've purchased for the express purpose of going on the highway. I've had sport bikes, motorcross bikes, enduros, scooters, minimotos and a supermoto. I live in Edmonton, Alberta in the heart of the Canadian Prairies and I plan to do some highway miles in ever increasing radii. With the NC750X I'll be able to build a set of requirements for my highway progression. Maybe the NC will be the best fit or maybe not. It doesn't matter one way or the other as I've put on 2700 km and have already determined that highway trips are for me. The NC purchase has been a grand success but it may be replaced within the following year. Funny thing about the NC: with moderate growing mileage it won't depreciate very much at all between year nine and ten of it's existence. I know I'll be drawing on your inventory of videos for some required maintenance over our winter months. Thanks so much for your content creation and best of luck on your riding career.

Absolutely no shame in getting yourself a lovely bit of kit. The NC's are its little brother, so all good. I could get something other than my NC, but the beauty is just so easy to ride. Good luck on the new beastie, baby. Ride safe.

It was scary moment, when you mentioned that it is the end. I am happy that you alright. Congratulations ! Africa also great bike!

oh mate, well, I look forward to your africa twin vids! (btw, did you ever have to change the discs on the NC and did you make a vid? I mean, it can't be that hard...?)

I’m very easy on brakes as we don’t do city riding. The discs are still in perfect condition. So no vid. But yes, they would be easy to replace.

Haha, you had us worried there Adrian! I always fancied the Africa Twin, looks a class bike - definately suits the taller riders like us! Health to enjoy!

Yes. There were only two things I didn’t particularly like about the NC - the slightly cramped riding position and the suspension. The AT certainly sorts that out.
