That's the place.

Sidi has a new half boot out that looks interesting.

So what do you guys think of the new NC700X?

I tried finding video reviews but it appears bike journalists live by the motto 'shut up and ride', hence the video brochure from Honda below

It's kind of hard for me to imagine the gas tank cap located under the rear seat and storage space where the tank is usually located, but it seems to have some benefit. What do you guys think?

^ I also wanted to ask - is there any real performance benefit to having those jagged brake rotors versus a standard rotor?
