A few people have been scammed on the site, Only use paypal to pay for items for sale by other members. If they will not use paypal, its likely a scam NEVER SEND E-TRANSFERS OF ANY KIND.
Very little of that list is going to be on the NC if it gets updated. I expected an update in November 23 and we didn't get it, so if there is no change this November I think that signals the end of the line. The most I would expect is a TFT dash with some connectivity and maybe a styling...
You don't see many of them around over this side. I think it has done OK sales wise but it competes head on with the Tracer 9 GT/GT+ and that bikes has a lot of fans.
It needs a mid life update IMO, with the styling tweaked and the electronics/DCT upgraded to the same as in the latest Africa...
The CP3 engine in the MT09/Tracer9/XSR seems to be universally loved by vloggers and journos. I do find the looks of the Tracer variants off putting, but the latest 2024 MT09 variants are a bit more conventional.
If I fit, I might be getting one later in the year.
I'm no EV zealot but the battery is not a reason to disregard EVs anymore. Very early vehicles about 10 years ago with tiny capacites maybe, but these days the batteries will outlast the vehicles.
Charging infrastructure, well that's a whole different matter..
You really need to measure the sag with the setup you have now. That will guide you to the spring stiffness you need. The spring stiffness on the OE shock is about 140 N/mm.
Part of the joy of choosing a bike is reading as much about it as you possibly can, in my opinion. If you read enough reviews of all kinds, you generally get a pretty accurate description of the good bits and not so good bits.
Condemned by faint praise is a phrase I keep in mind too.
The NT is one of those bikes that looks a lot better in the flesh. I too thought it was an ugly duckling but when I saw one for real, I was quite taken with it.
If anyone is struggling to get the Sharpie pen cap bodge to fit their tyre valves I found the nozzle you get with silicone sealants works too if you cut it appropriately. Temporary fix of course….
In response to the original question, in the UK those of a certain age with a juvenile sense of humour would respond "Ooh err missus".
We can get a non HISS key cut here too so you can use that to open the frunk and lift the seat but it won't start the bike.
No changes since this variant was announced at the end of 2020. I really thought we would get a facelift of some variety but Honda must feel the bike is doing just fine as is.
In those circumstance would a TPMS have helped though? A TPMS isn't much use if the tyre deflates really quickly.
I had a front tyre blow out in Italy on a 2004 FJR. There were roadworks on the autostrada and I think I hit a stud or upturned bolt. Anyway the tyre deflated almost instantly...
That's part of the problem for me. I ride all year round and most of my longer trips are to the UK and back overnight (with a ferry crossing included) so knowing the ambient temperature is important in winter. Most of the those cheaper digital thermometers don't have backlights and even the ones...
The Kawasaki GTR1400 (shaft driven sports tourer) came with a TPMS. At least it did over here. Those bikes are old now and the TPMS fails to work as the batteries are inside the tyre. If you are OCD about stuff working this can put people off a used purchase. It did me anyway. I had a Fobo2...
