    nc700 rear rack

    HONDABIKEPRO ADV Rack is in the wild!!! Ok I am one lucky bastard. I think I have the only HBP ADV rack in the wild on my bike. I rode up to South Bound Honda and Dale was kind enough to install this most awesome platform (calling it a rack does not do it justice). It's rock solid and stable...

    Had a reminder today. Always make sure your neck is covered!! A grain of sand/grit or even a gnat doesn't feel so good at hwy/fwy speeds. I usually wear a very lightweight neck gator (poly tube) but couldn't find it when I went to take off this morning so had a few stingers on the road today...

    300 mi round trip Portland to Lakewood, bought and had installed the ADV rack by HondaBikePro (Thanks Dale!). Will post pics later, butt hurts and too tired. Draining day riding in the 90+ heat.

    2017: What did you do to/with your NC700 today?

    I got to remember to take more pictures when I ride. This was a couple weeks back but rode ~500mi with a couple buds on 2 CBX's and an AT. Portland, OR -> Carson, Wa (via hwy14) -> W side of Mt Adams. Camp (the bloodsuckers were swarming something fierce!): NW side: This was our...

    Keep taking courses from your local MSF. Never hurts to go back and brush up on your skills and learn the latest. I think that while we get a lot a riding practice in, we don't practice riding enough. Meaning that the scenarios that are reviewed and practiced at the courses are not the skills...

    Team Oregon (motorcycle safety program ODOT sponsored) ART course will tell you to stay outside on the turn as long as possible with steady throttle at a speed/lean appropriate for the turn and your comfort level as a rider (typically more experienced adrenaline junkies...sorry...riders will...

    Post Good Buys HERE

    You are correct: The Nook Gear Shed by Cascade Designs doubles the covered storage area of your Nook tent (sold separately). It maximizes livability and comfort on extended backcountry trips. But if you have that tent having the extra storage vestibule is awesome. I have a vestibule on my car...

    +1 on leaning in corners (for any size rider). It also helps to properly counter-steer without over extending (over extending reduces reaction time if you get in trouble in the corner) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    NC700X Skid Plate

    Why skid plate? Bikes Needs Oil to Run - Album on Imgur After much looking and contemplating my budget I took a little risk and went with iron skill out of the Ukraine. No issues/mods needed with OEM center stand. Don't know how it would be with other engine guards but attachment was 4 bolts...

    Cut that tape on a angle when you start at about a 30-45deg. This allows you to keep a "straight" end of the tape without any corners/edges hanging out the top. I also "sets" your wrap angle making easier to not get wrinkles when you start stretching to go down the length. If you can "round"...

    Good advice. Only thing I would add is that if you are riding unfamiliar roads or even in twisties you are relatively familiar with, on a right curve leave yourself enough room to the outside (your left) that you won't kiss the windshield of the inevitable cager that is going to cut the corner...

    PM sent Also the website while you can place an order does not have a complete online store. You place the order with them, they confirm through email and then you have to wire the money via western union. I was a little worried but after some PMs with user Juggler, I felt ok doing so and it...

    LED headlight installed and a tail-light question

    No troubles?? The prod description specifically says not for MC applications. Wondering if that just means turn signal application but is OK for running/brake light.
