What!... sell my new NCX?... hush your mouth. :eek: Actually, I do see your point, but buying (and selling), a bike is not an easy or cheap thing to do where I'm at. It was enough of a challenge to get this one, and I'm not going to let it go just yet. Maybe after a full riding season, if I...

Thank you all for your ideas and sharing your experiences. If the storage were just for the "normal" (for me) 6 months, I wouldn't be as concerned. But I have never stored a bike for a full year. I'll do as you suggest with the gas, and just leave the tank topped off with stabilized fuel. We...

So now that I got my new NCX a month ago, and just started riding it this week (since spring has finally arrived here in Alaska), I'm going to have to mothball it in about a week because I'll be travelling... and it will not be ridden again for about a year. :mad: I'll be away on...

I think I could, but I have not yet tried. Just a matter of time. I'm sure I'll head up there on the NCX before too long. Nice pic!

I have not, but I should since Dawson is not too far from me, (about 440 miles), and I have been to Dawson before. I won't have the time this summer, but maybe soon.

Finally spring in Alaska, so I got the new to me NC700X out for a ride today... just up the mountain pass a few miles from my house. I'm really liking it so far.

Back at-cha

Thank you all for the offers, ideas and suggestions. I'll look into your recommendations. Thanks

Sorry... it's a 2014.

So... I bought a used NCX and it came with the taller Honda screen, but not the shorter OEM screen. I think I might like a shorter screen better, but the OEM screens seem pretty pricey. So does anyone have any recommendations for a short screen?... is the OEM the best way to go or is there a...

So even on the exhaust side, the can doesn't hit?... that would be great as I was trying to figure out what to get for the back of the bike.

For these Mutazu bars, when the bike is on its side, what on the rear of the bike touches the ground? Do you also have spools or anything rearward to keep it off the ground back there?

I got it... don't know why it was so fiddly for me, but after the 4th or 5th attempt, I got all of the prongs lined up with the grommets and could bend the cowl enough to seat the screws. I appreciate the feedback and encouragement. At least my screws weren't stripped... Even though I have a...

I just completed the first oil change on my NCX and had no problems removing the lower cowl for this procedure. But I'll be darned if I can get the prongs to line up with the grommets and still have the screws line up with their holes. What am I missing? Many thanks as always.
