    A ride over the Black Spur, Victoria, Aus.

    Here's a view of The Black Spur. On a good day with no traffic, it is arguably one of the great rides in Victoria. It's certainly one of the best close to Melbourne. It was a great day for a ride, so I thought I'd film it. Not everything went to plan though. Enjoy. The Black Spur

    Removing fuses

    Today for the first time ever, my bike wouldn't start. Lights came on, everything sounded and looked OK, until I pressed the start switch, and was met with a stony silence. I checked a few things and thought I would check the fuses before anything else. This is where I got stuck and would...

    My bike is leaking something

    Hello friends. My 2012 NC700SA has started making a strange scraping kind of sound. I only hear it when decelarating or braking. (Fortunately I forgot to put the ear plugs in!) On Tuesday I was checking the nuts and bolts in case something had come loose, but everything seemed in order. I...

    How important is the windshield?

    Late last year I purchased a new helmet - Arai Vector 2. I really like it, but the wind noise is so bad it almost hurts. Last week I realised that if I sit up really straight, it isn't so bad. But this meant I had wind rippling around my neck & shoulders. So maybe it isn't just the helmet, but...

    An Australian Journey (a bit of it anyway)

    Australia is a big country. I'd like to see more of it and I'd love to do more of it on a bike. But for my first long trip, I was really happy with the NC700SA. I wrote about the journey on my blog which you can read here:Sit and Wonder: Sydney Journey Pt1 - Home to Merimbula Parts two...

    Programming new key - HISS

    Hi all, I've only got one key for my 2012 NC700SA, so decided it was time to get a second one. The blank cost me a bit over $50 and getting it cut cost me $30, which I thought was a bit steep, but I can't cut it at home so coughed up for that. Called Honda to see about getting the key...

    What size are the handlebars on 2012 NC700S

    I would have thought I could find the answer to my question without resorting to posting it here, but I haven't been able to. Are the OEM handlebars on a 2012 NC700S 22mm or 28mm? Thanks.

    What size bolt? (Passenger peg)

    I'm having a go at making some racks to keep panniers sitting straight. Can anyone tell me the size bolt I'd need to attach something behind the passenger peg? Cheers.

    Strap on panniers - a cheap alternative or a pain?

    Greetings fellow riders. I don't do much long distance stuff, so panniers haven't been an issue for me yet, and buying a hard set is out of reach at this stage. But I do have the possibility of a three day trip at the start of next year and I'm looking at some strap on panniers. I came...

    G'day from Australia.

    I hope I'm not the only one from Australia on these forums, and look forward to learning from others while here. I bought my lovey red NC700SA in December 2014 and love it. It's a good step up from the CB250 I've enjoyed for five year and as I do most riding around the suburbs/city, having a...
