L.B.S is correct, I have a Heidenau K60 Scout rear, and a Continental TKC80 front. I generally ride dirt in normal "D" mode, though I have needed manual mode a few times, to keep the bike in the rev range I want it for the current terrain. I did consider the rear carrier to fill the gap, but I...

Yeah that was kinda my feelings on it. Going too fast, and the tiny front tire will catch in the sand and throw me off the bike. Go too slow, and I get stuck. Rather get stuck than lowside/highside at speed, even in the sand. Means I can't just commit to getting though and keep the gas on though...

Went for a ride... Should have been a nice easy ride down a nice clean dirt road, but the increase is monsoon storms we have seen this year gave the road a bunch of new, very deep sand washes. I made it though two of them, but the third one had me beat. And then my bike needed a...

I would be very surprised if changing out the dash would correct the problem. Its not like a software problem that seems to happen on all 2014s is going to be caused by the instillation of the dash in the unit, and the unit was fine before it was put in. If the 2014 dash has a software problem...

2014 DCT here, avg mpg below. 2700 miles with no trouble. Accidently hit my kill switch while in 3rd today (don't ask... lol). Flipped switch back, bike shifted to neutral, and restarted with no trouble. Had to stop to shift back to drive, but I expected that, and was at a red light anyway. My...

Friend of mine sent me this yesterday. I love that the video seems to be blaming the road, when almost anyone who rides a bike can see that it was the riders own fault he crashed. Riding outside his ability, but not the bike's ability (he was nowhere near max lean angle), and target fixation. He...

I kinda like the look of this bike... But I wish it had a bigger engine, and the stoarage makes it about the same as the difference between the NC700X and the CTX700. Both are nice, but the NC wins for me. This new one beats the CTX700 for me at least though. At that price tag, if it was 800+...

Looks like a clone of an older Contour HD camera... like, a lot like it :P And not that much cheaper than a brand new real Contour action camera.

After careful observation, I too noticed that it was not resetting to 0, but rather it was forgetting whatever miles were added since the last trip. I included this in my conversation with the service manager of my dealership, and he included it in his submission to Honda.

Thanks for chiming in Arno, and welcome to the forum! Sorry it had to be because of a technical issue on a brand new bike :( I will be keeping the thread updated if my dealership manages to get any help from Honda. The service manager there has turned in a report, including my information and...

If you blip the throttle hard enough in either auto mode, the dct will downshift automatically for more power, assuming doing so will not put it into the rev limiter. If you give it gas while riding the rear brake it will overpower the brake. If you give it gas while holding the front brake...

I had considered that as a next step in testing, but in reverse: I *never* use my kill switch. I always use the key. I think I have used the kill switch once, to make sure it worked :P Odd, as I have always used the kill switch on every other bike I have had, but the key is so easy to reach on...

Update, with evidence! But first, another reply from Louis: And now the pay dirt, and evidence. Follow my Panoramio links to see pictures with time and geotags of my trip meter rolling back to the last time the bike was turned on!

Here is my email: And the first reply from the service manager, Louis: And my subsequent reply: More to come I am sure.
