    Tickle Me Helmet...

    Don't know about you, my fellow riders, but sometime back, I had accidentally opened the top vent on my Scorpion EXO900, and didn't realize it until I hit the interstate and was cruising along. Once my speed picked up to 60mph, the airflow through the top was tickling my cranium to the point of...

    NC700XD Shares CycleWorld Jan 2013 cover with BMW F700GS

    Not quite sure how they measured a top speed of 100mph...the bike *cough cough* does more than that. Also, this photo rotation biz from the phonecam, I need to figure out.

    'Tis The Season!

    Hello Team Honda! I thought I'd spread some holiday cheer! This made for a fun ride today. In order to carry the passenger higher, I'd need to rig-up something extra, but for now, this works. Teddy will be in the frunk if the rains come ;D

    Recall (not Total) Notice!!

    ;) Finally!! I was beginning to wonder about the 'Recall Notification System'. A few days ago, I received a very official looking envelope with the word HONDA in bright red printed in 60-point font (which is what they should have used to stencil the name on the bike), informing me that a...

    I Can't Stand it!!

    Ok guys and gals... I have a problem/issue and would seriously appreciate some help. As of this weekend, my NC now has a center-stand! Great gizmo... now if only I can make it work for me. Not sure if its a technique, height or weight (me lightweight) thing... for now, the easy "fix" is to...

    Two Honda's joined a Kawasaki at the lights...

    Goodness, I so wished I had time to take a snapshot of this scene. The Kawasaki crotch rocket was already waiting in his left third at the lights, a Ruckus with a 200# rider pulls up alongside him, and I arrived in the lane to the right just in time to see the Kawasaki rider do a double take...

    Power Conversion - 12v Lighter Plug to USB

    I was quite the happy camper having added a 12V (cigarette lighter) socket to my handlebars to power my GPS while in transit. Imagine my surprise a few days ago when I discovered that the cable was degraded, splitting open at various points, and the conductors peering out for the world to...

    Let There Be (more RED) Light!!!

    Today being a rainy day and all with house chores beckoning, I chose to spend a few hours lighting things up a bit. I've always wanted a bit more red in the rear, and I'm pleased to say that my stage 1 upgrade is looking rather nifty... First I opened up the rear to see what I was in for...

    Shopping with the NC700

    I can spend hours at the book store, computer store, Home Depot, Lowes, Ace Hardware, the bike store or any other place that has shiny tech stuff. When it comes to clothing, not so much. I was excited to find that my new pink sweatshirt (still on its hangar) for the pink ride this weekend, a...

    Kids dig the Power Ranger!

    So, I've been tooling about, and not minding my own business too much, but I have been noticing kids waving at me from their parents' cages or while walking to school. This morning I couldn't help but smile when a kid did that, and mom just about had whiplash looking around to find the stranger...

    The ears do not have it...

    Hello Team Honda... I was wondering if you would be so kind as to share what you use for ear protection. Wind noise at speed is no fun. The foamies don't seem to be cutting it for me, and I cannot tolerate the semi-hard plastic ones. Suggestions with model/partnumber appreciated. Thanks

    Powering Up

    Hello Team Honda, I am in the market for some information regarding the addition of a 12v lighter socket (power accessory). The 'installation' itself seems a painless process, but I was wondering if any of you could offer some tips on the best way to open up the machine/remove cowling to gain...

    Stick Around... tank guard

    I'm not normally one for stickers and other things with adhesive being attached to my mode of transport, car or otherwise, but... Yesterday, I ventured by the store and picked up a tank-guard for my machine. I debated on the colors for a while, and at first I though that clear would be nice...

    Sailing on the NC700... at 5-7mph

    Before y'all get too excited... No, the bike does not do well on the bay or the ocean, but yesterday was the first time in a long while I thought I should have been out sailing instead. I had the bright idea to make a detour to a motorcycle store to inquire of my options regarding power outlet...

    Trooper Nod

    Today on the commute to work, the trooper was hiding in the tree-covered median with his radar gun shooting for speeders in the school zone. I got his nod of approval as I wheeled through at 25mph. That was pretty cool.

    GPS Reloaded...

    Many years ago, in the northern portion of middle-earth, I purchased a Magellan Mestro 3140. For 5+ years, its seen map and firmware update (I want to keep my carbon footprint small, and I dislike chucking stuff "just because"). I recently decided the battery was due for replacement, and as I...

    Initial Service Roundup...

    Its that time of my bike's life whereby it requires some 'attention' following the first 600 miles (I think it was closer to 800 when I arrived).... Yesterday I dropped it off at a nearby Honda dealer for them to give it a once over. This is not the same dealership I purchased it from, but...
