I was riding home last night and a buzzard flew out in front of me and went through my wind screen, hit me in the head then died. I only have a swollen lip thank to my RF1400. I did not go down and eventually finished my ride home. Very shaken up. So always wear your helmet riders. Birds suck...

I’ll take it. Pm me about pay.

I have used Bridgestone Battlaxe, contimotion pro and Michelin Road 5. I think the Road 5 is about the best sport touring tire out there. Great life and I hit something in the road and put a hole in the tire and was able to safely get to the side of the interstate with zero air in the rear...

Nope, no wheel bearings and I take my wheels off and drop them off at the Honda dealer for new tires and they have never said anything.

Like 8.5 sets of tires, 6 or seven chains. 5 or 6 valve checks usually have on valve just slightly out.

Well i bought my NC700x new in feb 2013. Its been almost 9 years, countless sets of tires, chains, sprockets, oil changes and a few batteries and light bulbs. With the exception on wear parts like brakes and tires, all i have done is regular maintenance. Nothing has failed. The NC700x is such a...

Hit 80k the other day, getting to it. The 150mile round trip to work causes this. Stock clutch is doing fine. I run Honda gen4 oil and Honda filter. Only issues have been broken chain and worn rear sprocket oh, and a deer. The bike just keeps chugging along.

I just rolled over 75k and I still have the original clutch. All street riding and not too many hard take offs. Sent from my S41 using Tapatalk

There are brand new 700x for sale on cycletrader for like 5k and that's with warranty. Haggle that down! Sent from my S41 using Tapatalk

This one isn't too bad, especially since Honda revised the valve adjustment to 16,000 miles. Sent from my S41 using Tapatalk

I rode to work, as per the usual and hit 75,000 miles on the odometer. 6th set of tires, fifth chain, 3 set of brake pads, second right saddlebag (thanks to a deer). This bike is amazing. Sent from my S41 using Tapatalk

So I briefly owned an '08 CBR600RR with a Yoshi exhaust, kn filter and power commander. It made 105hp at the rear wheel on a Dyno. I only bought because a friend was moving cross country and his wife said it wasn't coming. I got a killer deal on it, it became the Disney bike, since the resale...

I haven't used fuelly in a long time. I did however just roll over 73k miles. In the past 12 months I've racked up over 17k miles. Sent from my S41 using Tapatalk

So I'm 33, I commute on my NC everyday. The idea of an electric motorcycle appeals to me greatly. However, this one (livewire), is unfathomably expensive. I'm an operator at a nuclear power plant and my wife is an RN, we do alright. But goodness, who my age is supposed to afford this thing. If...

Update: rode to work and the odometer rolled over 68k miles. Sent from my S41 using Tapatalk
