I had the same experience, except over the course of a few days. In response to the posters above, yeah, I check my tires every couple of rides. The tread was a bit thin, sure, but there was no metal showing and everything was solid. Two days later, the tire looks like someone took a cheese...

Sorry if this has been done -- I haven't been on the forums in quite a while. Anyway, thought it might be a good idea to post our experiences with our tires since there seems to be a lot of interest in which kind to buy. This way people can just compare the data from other riders instead of...

Yeah I saw it, bama. I didn't even know what they were until I did. I prefer sweet and sour sauce. /thread hijack

I think we're just postponing the inevitable photo thread featuring chicken strips.

I think I paid around 500.

Is this different than the extended warranty? Because more than a few of us bought that and consider it money well spent, including myself.

I feel like we should have a thread dedicated to everyone's "I dropped it today" stories. Sorry about your luck man. Most of us have been there.

I think that's just how they are. Given how easy it is to lock the damned thing up on wet roads, I'm glad it's not super touchy.

Kind of hard to have a serious discussion about the NC without mentioning mpg's and cost. Also, why does every reviewer act like there's no manual transmission NC? Thanks for the link, though. Definitely made me think a bit more about the Versys. That probably would have been a genuine...

I like the red. I kind of wish I'd waited a few months. Of all the colors we got the worst one, in my humble opinion.

Dropped mine twice on the first day trying to do tight turns.

Well I rode with my buddy Jim (met him here), and everything was awesome. So, you know, sometimes it's fine. Only trouble is he seems too busy to ride lately. Hopefully he'll get back on the bike soon.

13% here in the states. Seems to be another confirmation of what we've been saying all along: if you're willing to give up some top end performance, the NC is a great bike.

Nice fishing, Bob. Glad to hear it was legal size, after all. :)

Funny, that sheepshead doesn't look like it's 12". Man I would step over someone's dead body for a good, solid cold front. We get enough summer weather down here from March through November.

The proper term is now 'throne'.

I find that really hard to believe, about the made to fit stuff. Maybe you guys just have horribly misshapen bodies, but I have a second hand Alpine Star jacket that fits fine, and it's made of leather, and it very obviously wasn't custom made to fit me. Now if any article of clothing is...

I've ordered one of the 100 dollar chinese jackets from leatherup. We'll see how it holds up; it seems to be made well enough. Though it could prove a little too budget, I agree with the posters who've expressed a little incredulity that a quality leather jacket has to cost upwards of 500 bucks...

Yeah they weren't super kind to it, but that's probably a good thing. I'm sure if we're all honest there are things that we'd change about the bike, and the more feedback people give, the more chance Honda will improve it. You have to take the review in context, though, as well. This is an...

Looks like a lot of fun!
