    I want back in!

    I have not been active here for a few years now. About four years ago I decided to thin the herd and sold all but one of my bikes. That was fun for a while, but I really can justify a second bike and am considering either a 2020 NC 750 or another Guzzi. If hondabikepro's rear seat replacing rack...

    Pulling the trigger?

    I took a look in the Forum classifieds and there is a nice looking, nicely farkled DCT for sale in Lincoln NE. I don't know the owner, no interest, yadda yadda yadda, or if it is still available, but take a look: 2012 nc700x dct

    Pulling the trigger?

    I would see if you could take the used non DCT for a test ride, it should answer some basic questions for you Do you like it? is it comfortable?, etc. Check ads at other dealers if you are comfortable with a fly and ride scenario. U Haul motorcycle are the nuts and (around here) $15 / day. Where...

    Looking for saddlebag advice

    I just upgraded from the Honda OEM cases to Hepco Becker 42 liter Journey cases. I will be selling my Honda bags with mounts. Let me know if you're interested and I'll figure out a fair price for everything. I also have the silver side panels that are still new in the box. I'm leaving early...

    Went to check put the NC700X in person today.

    First of all congratulations! I don't know your riding history but you just purchased a two wheeled Swiss army knife! There are times I would like the arm straightening power of my Gixxer, but at almost 63 years old, who am I kidding! It's a great commuter, weekend warrior and a one up tourer...

    top case question

    The last two responses is kind of what I was thinking. Thanks again every one!

    top case question

    Thanks for the replies. I have the OEM side cases already. The top case contents would probably weigh around 15# or so. I have the Hondabikepro rear rack for the heavy stuff.

    top case question

    Planning a fairly long ride in early may. I have the Honda top case on and happy with it. However I would like to use my Hepco Becker 55L top case for this trip. I have the base plate for this case. My question is, the Honda mount is plastic / resin, and I want to now if it is strong enough to...

    Just in case......

    If a new left over DCT became available for the right price I would consider it. Had a chance to ride one and really enjoyed it. Still love my '12 manual and plan on keeping it unless the DCT becomes an option.

    IMS - Chicago, Feb 10-12

    I'll probably go to the Cleveland show again this year, though I swear every year I won't go back. it seems to get smaller each year and mostly "lifestyle" garbage for sale. Having said that, in the dead of winter a 4 hour road trip to do anything M/C related is needed. And I have had the good...

    teardrop trailer and NC700x

    Too much drag, wrong trailer for the bike. My Guzzi has towed similar too this and did fine. I "think" the NC could tackle this one. Good luck. Kompact Kamp Motorcycle Trailers
