On my NC so far I added 2" ROX risers and 2x30mm risers (I had to change clutch cable with a CTX one, lengthen brake line and move wires behind fork). This improved things but I still get right shoulder pain.
Here is a wild one ... I have a VT1100T for which I just ordered a set of buckhorn...
Thanks a lot everyone for the replies. I went for the ride in service and there is hope ;-)
The newly shaped seat is shaped more like a Russell seat. I asked them to make it wider and like a bucket seat. I asked them not to cover it yet so I can ride it like this for a while and see how it...
@bigmark: That's the next move if I cannot get the Corbin seat to work for me. I'm curious, did you get your refund within 30 days or within the 1 year warranty period ? I might need to do the same if it's an option.
@670cc: I believe the handlebars need some work too. I wanted to changed things...
I went to two ride-ins for a Corbin seat so far and the seat is still pretty painful after only 30 minutes of riding.
Seat from ride-in number one:
On this one the bucket was too low and was hurting my back.
Seat from ride-in number two:
Side view:
This one is better in...
Interesting point. I guess this is in contrast to carburated bikes which I assume you can push start with a flat battery.
I did manage to push start it the second time when a few people helped push the bike.
I seem to be quite creative at dropping my bike. I dropped it 4 times now and each time in a different way ;-) ...
Drop #1: I was at a dirt riding clinic and we were doing the slow "race". Well, I guess I was racing too slow and I dropped it.
Drop #2: After a 2 day camping trip I was filling...
Thanks beemerphile for taking the time to explain this.
Also thanks everyone else for your replies.
The thing is that I walked into a motorcycle consignment place today and sat on a few bikes to figure out the ergonomics. The Honda ST1100 felt the most comfortable. They also had V-Strom 1000...
Hi beemerphile what bars are those on your NC ?
I experimented a bit more with the ergos on my NC and I see what you mean by ulnar deviation. It might be the reason why my shoulders hurt after a while.
The other question is can I just try to straighten the existing bars for less pullback or...
How wide is this screen ? I have the adventure one (22" tall) but I was already thinking that I need to make one that's wider for wind protection for the hands. I would probably want mine shorter too at about 21" or 20".
