    Almost became one with my NCX

    Can anyone guess what these photos show? If you guessed skidmarks from a speeding Camaro about to slam into a motorcycle rider who was getting ready to turn into his driveway, you would be correct! I always turn on my turn-signal at the same point on the highway & started to slow/gear down...

    Honda top case--Givi/Kappa equivalent

    I've looked for this answer, but didn't find a clear answer, so sorry if this has been talked about before. I recently acquired used Honda side cases, and would like to find the Honda top case equivalent from Givi/Kappa. Unless I can find a used Honda top case, I can't justify the new cost...

    Missouri riders

    Seems like we have alot of Missouri NC riders here. Anyone want to get together one Saturday for a ride? I'm in central MO (near Jeff City) but looks like alot of MO riders are in SW MO. Any thoughts or ideas? I've owned my NC700X since 2012, and I have yet to see another NCX owner...

    Been offline for a while-neck surgery again

    All, been offline for a long while. I, once again, had neck surgery that I am recovering from. It was almost one year ago that I had my first surgery, and now they had to fuse C5/C6 and C6/C7 together. I guess I have degenerative disease that will progessively get worse. Needless to say, I...

    condensation on visor

    Had a horrible ride into work this morning due to condensation on my visor. It was a little foggy, and it took no time for my visor to be completely coated in condensation....of course, I forgot about my glasses and soon my glasses were covered. I had to pull over in the nearest town and clean...

    Seat Concepts opinions

    I'm still waiting for my tracking number from my Seat Concept group buy, & I already talked to a local guy who will install it for $25. What is the general opinion on this seat from those who got theirs & installed it? I had my current seat modified (removed some foam) to help lower it a bit...

    Got my Puig windscreen

    Stopped by my Honda dealer on my way home from work and picked up my Puig Dark Smoke windscreen. I removed my CalSci Sport and installed the Puig. It looks a lot better than the CalSci, but will wait until tomorrow to try it out. I have it on the lower mount; depending on how well it does on...

    A milestone for me

    Have rode my bike to work all week (saved about $60 in gas by not using my 4Runner), and when I got home, checked my odometer: 2100 miles. Seems like yesterday that I just brought it home. I love riding this bike, and can't wait to put more miles on it this summer. Also, found out that...

    Sena bluetooth...AWESOME

    All, I just got my Sena SMH-10 (universal mic since I have a modular helmet) and went for a short ride. All I got to say is 'AWESOME'!! I inquired on another one of my threads about Bluetooth and what everyone was using, so went with the Sena. Install and setup were VERY easy, and syncs up...

    BILT Techno helmet

    Looking at getting a BILT Techno helmet from Cyclegear. Anyone have opinions on this if they have one, and will a L or XL fit in the Frunk? Right now I have a modular helmet (which is nice because I wear glasses and I don't have to remove them to put on my helmet) but I would like BT. There...

    lowered the rear w/ kouba links

    Just got done lowering the rear of my bike with the Kouba Links. I can now flat foot both feet on the ground :cool: Now I just got to get my sidestand shortened. There is information about lowering the front about 3/4" if I want, but doesn't give any detail on how to do it. It said that...

    MSF BRC2 course

    Been looking at online videos & watching the Motorman DVDs to help me with slow, tight turns. It was something practiced at BRC, but I didn't think it was too important. How wrong I was. I have a difficult time making 90 degree or more slow turns, & can't help the fact that I feel like I'm...

    Givi Monolock E30 Tour Top Case opinion

    I'm looking at getting a top box for my NCX. I've done some searches on here, but can't find any info on the Givi E30. I don't want to spend a lot of $$. It does say it has a universal mounting kit. Will that work for my bike? Should I look at something else? Thanks, Rob

    New NCX rider...sort of

    My wife and I picked up my grandson and daughter from the airport last night. We haven't seen him, except for Skype and photos, since the week he was born, back in June. Anyway, here he is wanting to zoom around on my Honda Rubicon, and sat on my NC700X. Also, my daughter was able to get a...

    Went out riding with my son

    My son is down for a bit and he brought his bike. He is getting stationed in Virginia (in the Navy, a nuke engineer). It is about 42F right now, but I really want to go ride with him; he is the reason why I bought my NCX. My daughter wanted to go, too, so she rode with him. We went to...

    Happy Holidays

    Fellow NC700 forum members, I hope everyone has a fantastic holiday, and may 2013 bring many fun miles on your bikes. I, myself, can't wait to put some serious miles on mine. Oh, and I get to see my 6-month old grandson around Jan 11 when they come down for a late Christmas :o My daughter...

    Well, got my first drop out of the way :(

    I embarrassed myself this afternoon (& possibly done damage to my recovering arm). My wife went to Jeff City to work out, & I decided to ride my bike up there to get my haircut. My wife met me at Great Clips, & decided to go eat lunch at Lees Chicken just up the blvd. So far, so good. I...

    Being a Grandpa

    I am a first-time grandpa when my grandson was born in June. My daughter and son-in-law are in the Navy and are stationed at Bremerton, Washington and we drove there for his birth (yes, DROVE...a 30+ hour drive...Montana is a beautiful state :cool: ). I just wanted to show some pics of him...

    My CalSci windshield

    Got my CalSci Sporty windshield last week. It looks real nice. Since I am still recovering from my neck surgery, I have yet to take it out on the road to see how well it does. But, it does look cool. Also, I had the NC700X logo made and I put it on the front of the windshield....it is hard...

    Well, I've enjoyed riding (for now)

    Tomorrow is the day of my neck surgery. I figure that will wipe out any sort of riding for the next few months, plus with winter coming I'm looking at late winter, early spring before I will ride again. I truly have enjoyed my NCX, and now have about 750 miles on it. Not bad for a beginner...
