A few people have been scammed on the site, Only use paypal to pay for items for sale by other members. If they will not use paypal, its likely a scam NEVER SEND E-TRANSFERS OF ANY KIND.
Thanks Harvey for that good info.
Now that we've promised to stop cheating at cricket (sandpapering the side of the ball), we've been given independence from NZ and have our own currency.
Yes, that's it.
Bike is fitted with HISS security system and that's the problem according to HONDA dealer (who quoted $2800 to replace stuff to get bike running again). This is why the locksmith won't touch it.

House was burgled and they managed to find my key stash, so i've lost the "original" spare key plus the little alloy tag that had the 8 numerals on it. 2012 SA model (means it's got ABS but not DCT)

MZ5,
Since you've been here before, you may be aware of this already.
Quite often, since I've been to the US and done a multi state big ride I look at your weather temp maps and the temps can be reasonably uniform across the country.
Here it's definitely hotter as you travel north esp in winter...
Are things different in Missouri because if you look at the notes on T/diesels chart, he has written 87 no ethanol or 91 no ethanol.
Your 75mpg equates to 90mpg per imperial gallon which is incredible and doesn't make my 84 look good. Reasons - I stopped at a BP where they have those small caps...

Here's my last few fill ups converted to km/l. My last tanks had a lot of 120-136 km/h on them.
Tks turodiesel,
If you'd stuck this up on 26 Aug when you said 27kms per litre was easy, I'd have been absolutely convinced.
some observations:
-If the last few were fast trips, then it seems...

you are a man with a generous spirit.
yes, a lot of the domestic stuff was different e.g. my GB. I can, also given time, pull up a pic of another GB style bike (jap domestic) that is again different from anything I'd seen in the US or UK. The seat on the CX just must have been different from...

Well, I'm back 2600 kms later and can report on the fuel figs.
First thing that throws up is that the speedo is apparently over reading by about 9kph (5.59mph) at indicated 110kph (68 mph) so...
duk2n,
Just what I wanted to hear.
If you can get 380 out of 14l then that's 27kms p litre. I need enough for 377kms.
I'll still have 1.1 litres in the fuel bottle and that will do another 30kms or will give me a 10% margin for using more fuel if conditions are adverse..
Thanks for the response
I did the US/Canada on a heavily loaded EV1100 and it was a PIA when I got onto slippery ground.
I'm not a 100kg 6 footer so just want to avoid carrying anything not essential.
I need to get 27kms per litre or 76 miles per imperial gallon. Has anyone managed this...
I'm going on a six day outback ride with no panniers and a tent etc to carry, so I can't carry extra fuel bar 1100 cc in a fuel bottle.
With the 14l tank and this I will have a total of 15.1l ( 3.988 US gallons or 3.32 imperial gallons)
I'm facing 338kms (210 miles) between fuel at one place...
Netizen,
Have just seen your post on fitting the Honda touring screen where you say that it won't work without an additional deflector. Can you elaborate as to just what this means.
In Australia the only model is the SA which has a tiny "screen" fitted, even smaller than the X so the first...
OK so I'm in Australia which will make it possible that the HONDA parts situation is a little different but: -------
I need a rack for my NC 700S but not because I want to fit cases, merely something that I can tie my bag and camp gear to.

Welcome.
So if it's an X "A" does that mean that it has ABS. I see on the CAN Honda website that the "S" has ABS as standard. was this the case with the X?
If it's helpful to know.
Sometimes people complain of seats being too high. The S model sold here, rather than the X has a 30mm lower seat height as standard, so that helps. You can get the X lowered and phhonda fan has done this. Problem then is that the OEM centre stand will not fit but he's...
Thanks guys,
OK so no S's in the US.
No j f I'm not looking for a backrest but a rack to put soft bags on. The honda OEM one necessitates cutting the side panels
which some have said is not such a difficult job,. I want to see what else is out there before opting for the honda one.
