Another favorable review

Of the new 700cc Hondas.

The technology of the automatic transmission seems especially impressive.

Although I admire the product, predictably, it does not appeal to me.

With that said Honda has a marketplace winner here, and I'm sure it will be very succesful.

I admit that the styling is appealing to me, but not so much that I'd buy one. As well, I'd rather bang gears in a fully manual transmission.

An automatic transmission has no appeal for me. However, I do like the NC700X bike with the manual transmission.
