I came close to buying the new Scrambler but then read where BMW has one of the highest costs of ownership and repair and recall and even my dealer said stay away from them, too much o repair. Wow! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro

Antifreeze? Did on my brand new 2013 and dealer had my bike back in within 36 hours of riding it away from their floor. New water pump and seals. Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk

2 NC's? Which Two models do you have? Are you customizing one? or both? Photos to share? So far I love my NC. It's a 2013 and from what I can tell and I agree with you if you ride this as intended it will bring 74 plus in MPG. Smiles per gallon are even more! Ken from Illinois.

Hello, I wanted to make sure I did indeed introduce myself. I am Ken from East Central Illinois and riding a new 2013 NC700X. I purchased this new and it is a 2013, still on the dealers floor. It had been run by the staff for lunches and a few demo's and had 575 miles on it. Within...

I am running Battle Axe tires. What are you running that you like?

I just purchased my NC700X a few weeks back and really love the machine. I am your height plus an inch and same inseam but 230 lb's don't tell my wife. I like small shields and find that at 70mph and down it is fine. I'm designing a shorter than stock mean looking shield as I plan to...

I love all of these responses. The mud on the license plate will not stop you from being pulled over for a tag that expired. Many have tried that I'm told. Oh, and snow covering a plate won't work in the northern states either. LOL

Shingles. Like on a roof? Just kidding. Yes, painful but it gives you time to spend on here. Right? We'll ride for you brother. Pray you heal quickly.

Bought a new 2013 from the dealership floor this Monday. 450 miles on her as a demo. Sat mostly with dust on it. They used it for lunch runs. Had it out twice and last night she began leaking from water pump gasket. Now they tell me 3 weeks to get it into their Honda shop under warranty...

Called the dealer in Urbana and they said they are 3 weeks out from getting it in. I guess I'll just ride my trusty Kawi KLR650. LOL. Oh well. They also said that if it's not really leaking much it will be OK. Oh boy! I paid $5,500.00 out the door on this bike which was a good deal for me...

I just don't get it either. Have you noticed though that on automotive commercials and Harley commercials they will flip the plates backwards or reverse I guess or spray them white to match the vehicle in some cases. Who cares? I just don't see how someone is going to benefit from a plate...

I don't want to muddy the water for you but this past Monday I purchased a brand new demo with 450 miles on it from my local dealer here in Illinois for $5,500.00 out the door. It is also a 2013.

A very nice gift. Do you ride with him? I'd say stay with stock levers. Do you plan to drop the bike? Most likely not. That windscreen is really tall but at your height may be perfect. Congratulations! Low miles, yes most likely tires and a battery are in order. Say, has he had...

Hello to all, I picked up my "new" from dealer NC700X on Monday and last night found that the water pump is spitting out anti-freeze coolant. Just occurred. Was fine on Monday and Monday night and during the day when I rode but last night I got on it for a quick jaunt across town and when...

I rode my brand new 2013 NC700X to the dealership where I bought it and picked up some venting bolts for Buell Lightning heads for a new Harley Sportster Bobber I just completed ready for my first bike show.
