[QUOTE="BigEd, post: 172413, member: 161"] I had a Yamaha MT07 a good bike let down by "budget suspension". Performance very good and good fuel consumption too. I had mine stolen last year, not happy but looked on it as an excuse to try something else. I bought a new 2022 Honda NC750X DCT. It has a bit of a name for being a bit boring but the more I ride it the more I like it and appreciate its practicality. It is a six-speed automatic using a similar twin-clutch technology as my VW Golf. Performance is not in the rocket ship category but good enough for my needs as it has Standard, Sport and Rain modes. Only 58 bhp but very torquey so quite fun to ride especially in "Sport" mode. I've done just over 4000 miles now and over the last 1700 miles, it has averaged 80 mpg. Like the MT07 it has budget suspension, but I have Hyperpro Springs and a rear shock on order. [/QUOTE]
