    Corbin Issues

    I put a Corbin (Front and Rear) on my 2012 700X when I bought it in 2015. It split along a seam across the front of my crotch. I took it to a seat covering guy and he refused to work on it because the leather was glued to the foam. All in all it was not very comfortable, either. Too firm, even...

    Question My suspension failed after only 46k miles- best path forward?

    Wasn't cheap. 748.95 EUR. But definitely worth it. It's a different bike with this shock. I ordered it direct from Wilbers in Germany. It took two weeks to build the shock for my specs. Had to send a bank draft. It was 2016 so that may well have changed.

    Question My suspension failed after only 46k miles- best path forward?

    I went with a Wilbers with adjustable rebound and remote adjustable preload. They had a very detailed questionnaire detailing rider weight with gear, pillion weight with gear, luggage weight, % time riding with each. It's easily the best mod I've made to this bike. I highly recommend getting...

    Question Shinko 705 Tire Pressure

    Hey Shinko 705 users, what do you recommend for tire pressures? My manual says 36/42 psi (front/rear) for stock tires for my 2012 700XA. Is that what you're using?

    Buddy airlifted to Chicago hospital after hit by car

    This is why I bought hi-viz gear for my wife and myself, and added extra lights to my NCX. Denali soundbomb horn in case that didn't work. And I watch everyone. Idiots in cages everywhere. Hope he recovers well. Hope she pays through the nose.

    I broke my key for Givi side case (E-21)...

    I bought a matching key three lock set for my Trekker Outbacks. One key for all three locks. A side benefit is having 3 sets of matching keys, so my wife and I both carry one and I have spares at home. GIVI should be able to provide a set of five.

    2020: What did you do to/with your NC700 today?

    Went for a lovely two up ride to Stratford on Father's day to have lunch on a patio with some old friends my wife hadn't met. Quick stop first to tend to my parents grave site before lunch. A lovely ice cream after. Then the long way home around the north end of Waterloo back to Cambridge...

    Admore Sidecase Light Strips

    Well, I can see them quite clearly in daylight. They are 3 function out of the box. Stop/running/turn. That can be modified with the 4 position dip switch. The wiring kit has a waterproof quick disconnect for when you want to remove the cases. Both case connectors then merge into one cable...

    Installed some Admore LED light strips to my side cases. I already have the light bar but it's mounted below the license plate. I'll be even more visible now.

    2020: What did you do to/with your NC700 today?

    Holy Schmoly, man! I hope you're OK. Hard crosswinds, especially gusts scare the crap out of me. I'm a flyweight and that doesn't help. Wishing you as painless and rapid a recovery as possible.

    2020: What did you do to/with your NC700 today?

    Like that do you? I ordered it from the guy that makes them in Quebec. I bought the Cyclops I. The Cyclops II is twice the size. Around $1800 CDN + options + shipping. I went with the mag wheel and LED lights. Holds about 110L. Now I can carry our Lone Rider MotoTent while we're two up. The...
