A few people have been scammed on the site, Only use paypal to pay for items for sale by other members. If they will not use paypal, its likely a scam NEVER SEND E-TRANSFERS OF ANY KIND.
I’d have to look it up but I’m pretty sure just oil pressure holds the clutch packs engaged which is kind of reversed from a manual clutch that is held disengaged. Solenoids and valves control the direction of oil pressure to the correct pack.There is a clutch lift bearing on a manual NC but for...
I agree with bigbird. Seats are hugely subjective and I consider myself extremely lucky that my butt isn't that particular.... on my NCs I have had good experiences with a stock 2012 seat with the Showkey mod, a Sargent, and a Corbin. I did 1000+ mile rides on the stock one and the Sargent and...
There was at least one incident with a DCT Goldwing where the owner installed aftermarket hand grips that caused an abnormal idle speed speed which prevented it from going into gear without numerous attempts. No way will the DCT allow shifting into gear with the idle at 2100 rpm. The clutch is...
Like melensdad I feel no discomfort from contact with the rack. I had this rack and a Sargent on an earlier NC and now I have a Corbin with this rack. If one was tall or otherwise long-limbed they might naturally sit further back and be in constant contact with the rack but that is not my situation.
I’ve done 9 IBA rides with three on an NC. SS1000, BB1500, another SS1000. The latter was fallout from a BBG attempt. At 850 miles in I had 2+ hours in the bank and came upon a miles long backup on I-75 at 4 PM. The wait, traffic, and temperature sapped my ambition. I calculated the distance...
Maybe a few yahoos loaded a carpet bag there and broke the hinge mount on the frunk lid, pulled the rails out of the lid, or crashed the bike when a bag came loose. Did the years with loop mounts have a placard for maximum weight allowed on top of the lid? Honda legal team removed that warranty...
I use a Cortech Super Mini tank bag down inside the frunk as a 'road bag' for all the little things I carry on every ride on each of my bikes. I just pull it out of the frunk when I take one of the other bikes. Air pressure gauge, assorted charge cords, leatherman multi-tool, powerbank, ear...
Yes, muscle memory training is everything and playing the What If & What Would I Do Game on a regular basis is an important street riding strategy. A rider on another forum told a story about riding down the interstate when "suddenly all I saw was brake lights in all three lanes. There was...
