Yeah I have fender extender + radiator guard. First farkle added after I bought the bike.

:-o

Welcome to the forum, and greetings from Madison, WI, USA!

Poka-yoke fail! Should expect better from a Japanese manufacturer!

I had a clip-on for a while (in addition to a Moose Racing +9" tall windscreen). My impression was that the clip-on did not really deflect "move" a whole lot of air upwards, but the true benefit was that it acted as a spoiler to break up the smooth airflow coming off the top of the sharp edge of...

The photo is 2.5 MB. That is not unreasonable for a photo post. I hate it when online software re-compresses or downsamples images, to the point that they are horribly blurry. Facebook is a big offender. Sorry your Internet is so slow, that is probably frustrating to deal with.

Sweet, I love that.

Battery swap today. The old Yuasa (MotoCross-branded) was 5 years old and losing capacity rapidly. I have killed that battery several times and re-charged from dead (< 10 volts), so it is actually pretty great that it lasted this long. I decided to do an experiment and try the cheaper Mighty...

Greetings, and welcome from Madison, WI

I find that wine bottles also fit easily in the frunk!

I paid exactly $3k for my 2013 700X in 2018, with 6500 miles on it. I think prices on bikes have gone up quite a bit, though.

Identical situation here.

Those are the R-Gaza engine bars (the smaller ones), that are talked about very positively here. Might be hard to find new right now as the seller is from Russia.

I think you did great. As others have commented, I may have given a little wave, but I also would have been very startled with someone coming that close to me. When he got in front of you and shook his head, I would have probably given a big exaggerated shrug. ("IDK man??"). Like I said, I...

I have not either, but it comes up enough on here (and elsewhere) that I've pre-ordered a full set of bearings and seals to do when the time comes. That being said, checking bearings is not something that immediately comes to mind when inspecting a bike.

Hi NovaGeeze, Welcome to the forum, and it is exciting to hear that you are considering the NC. I have a 2013 NC700X and I absolutely love it. I bought it in 2018 with about 6500 miles, and now have almost 14,000 on it over four years. Now that I am not replying from my phone, a few more...

Thanks for sharing your oops. When I was learning, my friend let me borrow his learner/loaner bike for practice. An old Honda CM200. I was showing it off to friends, didn't realize it was in gear, and hit the starter (not sitting on the bike). The bike took off, smashed into a mailbox, and fell...

Another possibility is that the oil filler / dipstick cap could be not on tight, or cross-threaded. I even managed to cross-thread it once, and wondered why I was getting oil on my leg while riding. Overall my concern about that finding would be very minimal.

I think this will be my last day riding to work for the year (in December, not bad!). Today is relatively nice with a high of 38 F. Streets this week have been clear of frost, snow, and most importantly salt. But unfortunately big snowfall overnight tonight will likely stick around longer term.
