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...

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...

Went to do the valves for my 48k maintenance and I rounded the 10mm hex cap that gives access to the crank bolt. Tried a hammer and chisel also tried JB welding a socket in there and neither worked. Thoughts. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I live near Columbia, SC which is experiencing very serious flooding. My family is fine and we're have been relatively unaffected. I still have to go to work. I parked my bike last Thursday and have been too nervous to ride with all the flooding and road collapses happening all around me. It's...

I am an avid moto-commuter. The only thing that keeps me from riding my NC to work everyday is ice (rare here in SC) or my children (if I have to pick them up on my way home). My bike has just shy of 30k miles on it in less than 2 and half years and all but 500 miles or so are from commuting...

I am looking for a project and found a 1967 Harley sprint c. It's mostly there and engine is free. It seems like a good price and a substitute for an old honda project since they are hard to find. Thought? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

This article 2015 ZERO S | Electric Motorcycle Long-Term Test | DOIN? TIME is about the zero and in it they talk about how the zero S has a frunk. The writer explains what a frunk is, "and takes the place of the Zero’s “frunk,” or forward trunk." Forward trunk, is not something ive heard...

Talked to my parts guy a few weeks ago when I needed a new air filter, 24k service. He said they had to order one. Went in today to get the new valve cover bolt I broke off and the filter is back order. There are now 5 motorcycles I'm the states that use the same filter. What's going on here, I...

Just had my local Cycle Gear mount some contimotions and now above 25mph my handlebars shake side to quite badly. Any thoughts? Maybe the wheel isn't balanced well, anything else to check? Thanks guys.

i saw this link on the Phillip Defranco show and thought I'd share it. I see cagers do stuff like this all the time and just want to slap them. ?????????? ???????? ?? ????????? ?????? ?????? - YouTube

Im coming up due for at least a new rear tire and it seems the battlax 23 is being phased out. Now I am left with a pretty serious question, what do I replace it with. I do a lot commuting, back country roads easy going. Mostly straight up and down riding and I have some pretty serious...

Awhile ago I had a chain break and remove the tab where the chain guide bolts to (broke the engine case). No oil leaked. So I thought JB weld will fix this...wrong. After 2 days it let go. So here's where I sacked up. I did a lot of research on welding aluminum and decided since I could weld id...

So I've wanted to make my NC more versatile and since I'm a cyclist I thought let's put two bikes together. After much research and craigslist shopping I picked up a rocky mounts roof rack carrier for $10. Got it home and set it on the nc the back anchor went where the factory truck latches and...

There is a lot of talk about putting dual disks on the NC. My friend with an ST1100 is looking for tires and he has the same front tire size we do. This brings up the question, could a front wheel swap be done with the dual brakes? Thoughts? Gigs

I commute on my bike so getting the most miles out of a tire I can is important. I like the Battlax BT-023's but they make a GT model for heavy bikes, front in our size and the back one the closest is 170/60-17. Can I fit it, would anyone recommend doing it or not? I figure it would get me...

Hey, I noticed this morning that it was getting a bit nippy. So in preparation for the coming winter (winter is coming for all you dorks), Im checking into some cold gear and found Hippo hands. Does anyone have experience with these. Thoughts? Ordering Page for Medium U

I've had my bike for 6 months as well as my gear. I rock Bilt gear, it was inexpensive and hasn't let me down until today. I've ridden in sub freezing rain in this stuff no problem. Today we had rain and my pants leaked, in the seat area. I have other rain gear that's done the same thing. What's...
