Welcome to the forum. We are glad you came. There are not many NM4 posts here because there are apparently not many NM4s in existence. Nonetheless it will certainly be interesting to hear of your experiences with the bike.

It’s not drilled and tapped. There are physical nuts pressed into the plate. On the NC, the nuts will nest into the mounting holes on the stay. I’m not saying someone couldn’t simply drill and tap a flat bar, but it wouldn’t satisfy me. Dale’s and Madstad’s plates were much better than that.

There is some adjustment in the brake pedal linkage rod, but without modification, e.g. cutting, I doubt you get any movement close to 40mm.

Nutplates were available from, among places, a member on this forum that fabricated parts for the NC. He is no longer doing so. Nutplates and their application are shown part way through this post: https://www.nc700-forum.com/threads/hondabikepro-products.5694/ Some large screens were offered...

People usually are looking for nutplates to replace wellnuts when mounting big screens. The stock wellnuts will pull out easily under heavy load.

You can cut off the Honda connector and splice or connect the wires any way you like. But in my book, the proper way is to obtain matching connectors for your accessory wire, and plug it into the Honda connector as Honda would do it. There are some threads that talk about sourcing the...

You’ll have a 7.5 amp total capacity for the 4 harness plugs. The relay is closed and the harness outputs powered when the bike key is on. One connector on the harness has a third wire (blue). It is hot when the high beam is on. With some auxiliary light controllers, you can control aux light...

Every car/truck we have has an ambient temperature display and we look at them often. The Goldwing has one, too. I wish Honda had put it on the NC and CRF. It is a desirable feature for us.

On the 2013, the Honda Accessory Harness 6P connector resides on the frame at the mid left side of the motorcycle, sort of just below the frunk/seat junction. The four connector accessory harness attaches there. Then from there, Honda uses an additional harness for heated grip attachment. See...

What model year are we looking at here, and for context, where on the bike are the photos taken?

Yep. It looks great. Your potential buyer had better not pass that one up!

No argument. You have been a great help.

True. But, I purposely wrote “a problem” because the reason for the open fuse is not yet determined. The open fuse could be a symptom of a component or wiring defect, which could be “the problem”. Note I wrote “could be”.

I used to frequent an RV forum. I was amazed how many times the OP said they “checked the fuses” and that aspect was quickly dismissed, only to find out on perhaps page 10 of the thread that a fuse was indeed open. That is why in post #3 I questioned your fuse check method. Glad to hear you...

I have a friend with an Africa Twin DCT. One time we were on a ride, and his bike would go about 100 yards, then go to neutral. Cycling motorcycle power allowed him to ride another 100 yards. The DCT had no useful limp home mode, so the bike was basically disabled and he had it towed. The cause...
