    Two days, 611 miles

    My first long road trip with the NC. Well, actually, my first long road trip on a motorcycle ;) First off, let me just say I live in a beautiful state. The scenery was fabulous. I went on a giant loop from my home town of Bonney Lake. First, north to highway 2, then east across Stevens pass to...

    My NC's riding partners today-

    Sure glad the weather is warming up! Had a great morning ride with my Pastor, and Son in law. Yes, the Ducati is my Pastors'. He's 65, and owns three motorcycles. He's an awesome dude! It's funny, when we would pass folks walking the dog, or jogging etc, you could see them staring at the Duc...

    Shout out to Bell helmets

    Last summer my Bell Star helmet was hanging on my handlebars while I was fiddling with something, and it fell off and hit the ground. The sliding piece that opens/closes the chin vent popped off. I snapped it back on, and thought nothing of it. Couple weeks ago I was riding, reached up to open...

    Stupid snow. I wanna ride!

    Sorry, I just felt like ranting. Temps in the twenties and thirties here and it's getting me down. On a positive note; I retire in 5 days!! That's right, Feb 28 is my last day in the salt mine. No more commuting! I can ride at my leisure, when and where I want!! :cool:;)

Especially if you want to wear any protective gear at all. I'm going to park it, and drive the cage, and it's AC till it cools back down a little. Am I...

    What a pain! (Any ideas)?

    Love my NC so far after 8 months, and about 3k miles now. Lately though, I get a sharp knot in my upper back after riding. It's between my shoulder blade and neck, and is only on the right side. I did search some and found most have said just try to relax, but I don't think I'm tensing at all...

    My home brew top case

    I have the SW Motech rack, and soft luggage plate, and I love them, BUT, I got tired of strapping my lunch box on and off every day, so I decided I would try a top case. I didn't want to have to take the luggage plate off, and mess with an adapter plate, so I decided to mount one my way. This is...

    New member: Me, and an old member: Bike

    Hello all, I bought a '13 NC700X last December, and have been lurking since then. Finally decided I'd jump in. When I found this forum, I had to wonder....and sure enough, after searching, and reading countless old posts, I found my bike! It was previously owned by member "ronsaw". If your still...
