My 2012 was brand new on the floor with 4 miles on odometer in 2014. They had a rebate from Honda that dropped it to $4800.00 when I came in the rebate was over. I know the owner so they split the difference on the new rebate and the old rebate. to get me near the original price I had seen. They...

I upgraded to a Shad seat several months ago. I did my first long trip a couple of weekends ago and each break was not having to stretch or give my hind end a break. Noticeable difference. It did bring up the height a little but not too bad.

If it's in the tread is can be patched. If it's in the sidewall, or between the tread and the side wall, a patch isn't going to work so well. Thanks for all your comments. I live out in the boondocks where the dealership and motorcycle repair shop are pretty much the same thing. The car...

Ok my passenger is a 6'7" fifteen year old male who really needs to learn how to drive. We put the extender footpegs on for him and he rides fine. Right now going ahead and putting on the toprack and looking at the seatback that is used on some of the BMW GS series that bolt on to give him...

We saw the NM4 today while at the shop. Totally a rip off of the Batcycle

Ok am I getting played by the dealership/shop? The other day I was riding home from a lovely long tour and heard a loud bang crack. Looked at tires and saw nothing but it sounded like I had either run over a rock or something. Well today found a nail right on the side between the tread and...

Have you seen the farkle thread yet? It was a painful realization that customization can cost diamonds. I would love to add a farmer though. Can I get one online?

Ok I am learning that I must control the gesture of death. When I am cruising in my big SUV I have in the past maybe once or twice shown my distaste for someone else's stupid move where they pull out right in front etc. This weekend I had an idiot ignore her stop sign and pull right out in...

Interesting food for thought. And yes I have noticed the cagers are out for you. I was almost t-boned today in a shopping mall of an SUV that ran a stop sign into my huge SUV that is also RED!!! Go figure. I understand situational awareness but agree women riders need to be more aware than...

Ok I admit this comes from watching the post of the loony bird road rage that jumped out and punched the motorcyclist but if you ride alone or only with another rider do you take any precautions and what are they?

Great lesson for my sons who are just starting driving. Motorcycle or car you need to be careful out there. However the dude must have been totally stoned out of his gourd. Face punching a full face helmet. REALLY?

Blue ridge parkway? Where are you looks like Bent mountain. Am I right for the background of the bike?

Ok I cannot seem to figure out how to post pictures right side up. So I got the huge plastic bull. What about an old fashioned Barber Shop with working pole out front?

I got the Slo-Mo Tech on road off road footpegs from Twisted Throttle. The wider base and road cushion I have noticed makes it more comfortable on my feet for extended rides. I have not attempted off-road with this bike but if you pull out the cushions they have some serious teeth to keep your...
