Traded up from the baby shadow so for me a big difference in power the honda ntv700. Steady and reliable with enough punch for normal UK roads. Not a sports bike but easy riding either alone or two up. Would consider that its the equivalent of a nippy saloon car (if that makes sense). Good sensible bike.

Upgraded to the NT700 only a couple of months ago. Live in Scotland so plenty opportunities to go touring around the highlands and lochs. Didnt want to go alone and wanted a bike that both my wife and I could enjoy. Choice featured on comfort for both rider and pillion with ample power. Sports tourers didnt fit in the comfort stakes and I didnt want a cruiser as my last bike was one and it gets a bit uncomfortable wind wise after a while. The Honda is fitting the bill so far. No problem to comfo ...

Have owned mine for 9 months now. Do on average 400 miles a week, mixed riding and occasional two touring. Does exactly what it says on the packet, stress free, easy to ride, stable in wet and dry, great lights, the machine always Honda had hoped it would be. A baby Pan really. the only problem I had was that at 5ft 5 ins the seat was just that bit too tall for me, but had it reprofiled for £40 by Viking, all in less than an hour, and now its transformed my low speed confidence. the BT020 ...

On my second Honda NTV700-Deauville .I use it all year round on a daily commute of 80Km.Totally reliable with excellent weather protection it is ,with its maintenance free shaft drive ,the ideal bike for commuting. Comfortable seat,built in panniers,shaft drive,excellent lights, good fuel economy and good handling. Bad points are gearbox inflexibility ,no gear indicator and heavy to manoeuvre at slow speeds.

Just picked my Honda Deauville up last Saturday. Build quality very good, I'm very pleased with it. Will be using it for commuting and touring (Northern France) but as it's my first bike with panniers I need to get used to them before filtering through traffic.Possibly the dogs cahooners of small touring bikes.

I bought a 2007 Honda Deauville for my retirement bike (after many years of BMW ownership) as I could no longer afford BMW prices I had my ABS Deauville fitted with a colour matched top-box, a power socket, an Optimate socket and the Honda heated grips before delivery, all in readiness for another extended camping trip around Europe.
When it came time for the trip I loaded the Honda with all the equipment that I usually carry, including a fold-up chair and an aluminium bed, and had a real job to ...

Does everything you would expect of a mini tourer. Costs next to nothing to run, and requires little maintenance.

Easy to ride. Great for the comute to work on a daily basis. Excellent all-weather bike, especially in the pouring rain.
Have done some very long motorway riding and found this to be the best ride so far. Spent 4 hours on motorway in very heavy rain, bike held onto the road vey well.
A very good and reliable bike. The best all-weather bike so far.

It does exactly what it says on the tin. Some people say it's boring to ride, well if you want something to pull your arms off, then yes, it wont do that. Lets face it, anyone who rides a bike for real (that is other than a weekend) and simply wants to get from A to B in comfort and with some dignity without having your bum in the air to do it, then this is the bike for you.

It is very capable, corners well, the brakes are superb, there is ample space in the large panniers & top box to carry a ...

Easy to handle; mid range weight; enough power for road speed limit. Enjoyed the bike; two up no problem; good riding position for older riders.

I will concentrate on the downsides of this bike a little more as there is already a lot of good press for it on the net!I bought my Deauville 700 in August 2007 as I felt it was the best commuter to university, 100 miles round trip per day (14,000 per year). I am very pleased with the bike as it has proven itself as a very good commuter. I have since added some extras (45l topbox, big pannier lids, knuckle wind deflectors, 12v socket, amplifier and speakers) and have tried some limited touring. ...

I think the Honda NTV700-Deauville is a spot on allrounder. The good points are the shaft dive and the fact that it is very eonomical (50-55mpg - 12,5/litre). I also like the dual screen, the solid quality build and the massive comfy seat. It is however quite heavy and I think it could do with a bit of bigger engine than a 55bhp.

Just got the new Honda Deauville NTv700 after selling my Bandit (hated it - must be getting old.) Lovely looking bike in Metallic Grey.
Looks and feels exactly what it is, a reasonably priced all rounder.
Very comfortable for both rider and pillion.
Much better now with fuel gauge and face lift to instrument panel.
Basically I love it and will just keep enjoying it. The only 'bad' point is that the mirrors could still be a bit bigger and it's a bit noisy and vibrates at higher speeds. ...
