"Do you travel with large side bags? Do you see any FI faults that might indicate a bad sensor causing the bike to run in open loop mode? Is your final drive gearing non-stock, or is your rear tire a non standard size that causes incorrect odometer readings?"
I do have narrow side bags...
I have a few IEMs (in ear monitors) Shure SE215 & PS Audio M4U 4, and love them. Fit is important (it's how I learned I have big ear canals) so that they don't either fall out or expand your brains. I do use an amplifier with my iPhone. I can't imagine speakers out in the wind comparing to them...
Check out Roadgear.com if you'd like summer weight waterproof gloves. I'm in Florida and while there are plenty of H2O proof winter gloves, theses are the only summer weight ones I've found.
37,000 miles on my 2013, which I traded in several months ago on a 2014. It now has 6,000ish miles on it.
Replaced tires, chain, pads, etc. on the 2013. Now looking to put PR4s on the '14.
Saddle.
Oh, and I wish I didn't have to cringe over minor pavement imperfections; I know it's to a price point but my girlfriends CB500F has better suspension.
Yes, but....
The stock seat is a weapon of @ss-destruction. How Honda could get everything else right, but be so far off base with that is beyond me. I have a seat concepts saddle now and all is well for a full day in the saddle. I don't know much about pillion options.
I kept cutting down my Triumph Tiger 1050's windscreen till the buffeting finally stopped. It was kinda ugly, but I cannot stand feeling like someone is slapping the sides of my helmet.
I commute about 100 miles per day, mixed two lane & interstate. I average in the low 60's mpg. What are you 70+ guys doing? I don't ride at all aggressively (on the commute) & pretty much granny-shift it.
My experience is that the larger (unless they are waaay larger) will give you more buffeting than small.... Though less wind protection. I don't mind some wind but I am very bothered by buffeting. My last bike was a triumph tiger and I kept cutting down the windshield till the buffeting stopped...
I have been troubled that my NC got ~73mpg when new, but now gets around 60. All maintenance has been done, tire pressure runs near the top of the recommended, but the mileage still stays about 60.
I would take it in to the dealer, but it would seem petty for me to b#tch that I'm only getting 60mpg!
