    What's in your tool kit?

    Have you put together just the right set of tools to carry on your bike? I'm thinking about upgrading or replacing the stock tool kit. I've added a few things including a tire plug kit and a compact air compressor. But I imagine some of you have already worked out a really good kit. A list of...

    Lithium jump starter

    Do you carry one of those compact Lithium jump starters? Are there any issues with using them on the Nc700x? I have a relatively new battery but I've found it low enough to not start on a couple of occasions. I can put it on the charger but the jump starter would help ease my mind for the long...

    Silver touch up paint

    Where can I find the silver paint for a 2016 NC700X side cowl? I think it's Honda NHA95M Sword Silver Metallic. I need enough to respray one side panel to cover some lay down scratches (and some future scratches :-\ Thanks, Garry

    Took a Spill

    A few weeks ago I took a spill on the berm of a mountain road here in South Carolina. I came away with two broken ribs and strained rotator cuff muscles on the left side, a cracked bone in my right hand. I was out of work for a week and slept in the recliner for a couple weeks since it was less...

    Tapatalk issue

    I recently had some power issues and occasional crashes with my Android phone. I traced it to the Tapatalk app. Uninstalled it and the issues went away. I missed checking in so I reinstalled it and it seems to be working fine now. Sent from my XT1650 using Tapatalk

    NC700x was a hit at MSF training

    I took an MSF course for experienced riders yesterday. There was quite a selection of bikes there. The NC700X was quite a hit with others showing a lot of interest. The instructor even commented he really liked it. Of course the training is really a series of agility drills. I had a big...

    Kurviger routing app

    Had a great ride with beautiful weather yesterday following a route generated by the Kurviger app through the mountain roads in western North Carolina. Some of the roads were new to me and a pleasure to ride with very little traffic on some nice side roads. Kurviger was first created in Germany...

    Vozz Helmets

    I just unboxed my new Vozz helmet and my first impression is that it's great. There's a link below to some photos but there's nothing you couldn't see in better detail on the Vozz website at Vozz Store. Browser no longer supported I ordered my helmet from dtf-70 on eBay at BRAND NEW IN BOX...

    Additional brake and tail lights

    Another version of adding lights to increase rear visibility. I used two bullet shaped LEDs from OZ-USA.com. They look decent for the price. Made a bracket out of 1/16" x 1" aluminum angle painted black and fitted with the license plate bracket. They look white when unlit. Sent from my...

    Everywhereman.me

    Have you seen this adventure blog. A young guy riding an NC700x to all the locations mentioned in the song "I've been everywhere Man." He's in Central America now. Quite interesting. EverywhereMan.me – I'm visiting each place in the song "I've Been Everywhere". This is my story. Sent from my...

    Vintage MC racing videos

    I stumbled onto some vintage MC racing videos which took me back to my early riding days. I got into hare scrambles in Ohio in the early 70s occasionally placing in local races. Starting with an old Ducati 250 scrambler and a BSA Victor 441, I moved on to a Honda Elsinore 250 for racing. The...

    Easy handlebar weight removal without removing hand grips

    I wanted to install Acerbis hand guards and needed to remove the handlebar weights. There are several good posts here about that but they require removing the hand grips. This site was helpful because it had great photos. But I can't easily remove or roll back the hand grips since I have heated...

    New from Upstate South Carolina

    I want to thank you all for such a great forum. You guys helped me make the decision to buy a lightly used 2016 NC700X just over a month ago. I spent the last few weeks poring over hundreds of posts soaking in a lot of good tips and knowledge. I'm a returning rider and felt quite rusty at first...
