"Pocket protector of bikes"
"Dorky and practical"
"Dorky dad bike"
"Thoughtfully designed bike"
He doesn't sound like a fan, but he was doing his best to highlight the positives. I still dig the bike, but I'm also a big dad nerd, so that might factor in.
But I disagree with him on his list. If I was commuting primarily to work and such, the NC750X DCT would be the bike for that. Over the Multistrada for sure, over the big GS as well. So then its just down to the Versys 650, Tracer 9, Tiger Sport 850. I can see the Versys being on top because it has luggage. Maybe the same for the Tracer, but I'd put the DCT NC750 as #3 for sure, even over my beloved Tiger.
The NC750X DCT is just made to ride to work everyday. If it had more storage space for a laptop bag and/or gym bag by way of luggage, it would be #1 in my book as the go to work motorcycle.
