    Put a Scottoiler eSystem on your bike & the chain & sprockets will last much longer. My NC has 20,000 on it & the sprockets look like new ones.

    Has Anyone Installed a Rostra Cruise Control?

    My bike is a DCT model. I tried to, but when I killed the power to the unit, it did something to the pulse circuit and the transmission went into a neutral type mode. When I stopped the bike, I could hear the transmission trying to find first gear. I shut off the bike, turned the cruise back...

    New tires mounted, plus Ride-on report.

    Just put a new Metzler on the rear of the NC. The old one had 8,500 miles on it & was not quite down to the wear mark. I am getting ready for a 4,000 mile trip & knew the tire would not make it & do not want to take the Wing. When I removed it from the rim, there was a small nail inside. The...

    Has Anyone Installed a Rostra Cruise Control?

    After you remove the air cleaner box & the radiator so you can see what you are doing, it will be quite obvious where the cable will need to be. I fastened mine with a black plastic thing that is designed to go into a square hole in a bracket that came with the cruise in the end of the cable & a...

    Has Anyone Installed a Rostra Cruise Control?

    The mounting of the cable will be obvious once everything is removed so you can see how much room you have. The kit comes with a plastic nut thing that is designed to go thru a square hole in a bracket. I put it on the cable end and used a very heavy wire tie to put it were it needs to go for...

    I found one on ebay that a fellow bought to put on a car, then he got rid of the car before installing it. It is a 250-1223, and came with a 250-3742 switch. My NC is a DCT model. I moved the parking brake to the right and made a bracket to mount the switch on. It looks professional. I also...

    Has Anyone Installed a Rostra Cruise Control?

    I installed a Rostra on my NC700X DCT. It was a lot of thinking. There is very little room to work, however it can be done. I used a 4 into 1 splitter and taped into the vs signal at the transmission. I had to make a shield out of aluminum foil and duct tape to get it to work. I mounted the...

    Strenthen rear rack

    Worrying about the rear rack cracking from hitting bumps, I designed a brace to strengthen it. I bought 2-3' lengths of 1/2 "hollow round stock. I bent them 90 degree on one end and pounded about 8" flat on the other end. Next find a short piece of round stock that fits into the hollow tubing...

    MotorCycle Cruise Controls - Electronic Cruise donor bike requested in Melbourne, AU

    I would pay $800 or more for one. I have one on my Silver Wing scooter. Once you have something like that, you want one on all your bikes. Keeping the speed limit is no problem and you are safer because you don't have to keep taking your eyes off the road to look at the speedometer.
