So what did you do TO your NC700 today.

The second video shows unavailable for me. The first one plays fine.


edit: now it's working, sounds much more like a car now

Yeah, for whatever reason, it "processed" for several hours whereas the meep one was quick.

Installed the Honda Tall windshield today. It was raining and So far, I LOVEEEEEE IT!!!! The stock windshield was giving me some buffeting and now I feel great. I'm 5'7". It was also my first accessory. Woo HOO!

What kind of screen? do you have pics?

I have the 22" Cee Bailey on NaNCy...

looks good, but I think I like Honda or Cal Sci more. Does anybody have the Cal Sci windshield? How good is it for a 6+ feet rider?

The Cal Sci screens look good, but they do not fit well and they are prone to vibrating in the wind and cracking around the mounting holes.
I'd go with the Honda Tall or the V-Stream over the Cal Sci. They both mount easily and securely. No cracking problems reported.
Your results may vary.

I like the look of Nancy's windshield above too. The glass is nice. But I still like the mounting bracket Honda includes. It's great having more wind protection now. Glad I ordered it when I did. Nice to be able to freely move my head around and be able to ride with my shield up a bit more which I enjoy doing.

Where's those engine guards that your bike was the model for? I wanted to see them.

Bike looks good for the abuse you've put her through!

 

[Nortwestrider]

They did not get done in time !!
They moved my bike to the corner slot ..

My lighter fork oil did not arrive yet, but I installed the adjustable fork caps anyway. Had to remove 6mm of spacer for the difference in cap depth, and I took another 6mm off the previous 8mm preload I had. So my starting point is now 2mm preload, and the adjustable caps can go 15mm more up to 17mm preload. Should be able to find the right spot with these. The marks on the adjuster stem are 3mm apart, so I went in one mark to 5mm. I'll try that on a test ride today.

Also installed a Goodridge brake line. When I added the Rox Risers, I took 2" of slack from the brake line, so it was a little tight. The Goodridge added it back.

Got the 12,000 mile service done a few miles early because I needed new tires, which were replaced with PR4's!

Got tired of looking at my clock and thinking I was late so I finally looked in manual for how, and set my clock to correct eastern standard time.

Thought about doing mine but seem like a lot of trouble so I'm pretending I'm on eastern time.

Also installed a Goodrich brake line. When I added the Rox Risers, I took 2" of slack from the brake line, so it was a little tight. The Goodrich added it back.

Nicely done. Is that a stainless line that's sheathed, or an OEM style replacement? How long did you get? Where'd you get it? A braided line is on my to do list....

Thanks! It's a stainless braided line with black coating. I got the 40" line with two 45 degree fittings and a pack of crush washers. Total was $62. The only caveat is that the line is 40" without the banjo fittings. When you add the banjo fittings, it's closer to 42". The OEM line is 38" including the fittings. It might have been better to get the Goodridge 38" line, then the finished product would have been closer to the 40 inches that I wanted. But I decided to install it anyway for now.

You push 2 buttons !!!

Button pushing isn't the issue. Unloading the frunk to get to the manual to get the correct button pushing order is the hard part.

 

[Nortwestrider]

Turn on the key,push both the R&L buttons at the same time.The hour should start to blink,then you push the R button ( I believe) to the right hour.
