    Help! Can't re-attach positive battery bolt!

    I had a heck of a time doing the same sort of thing when I changed batteries. Not enough room to work.

    Denali Light Bar installation

    When I installed my Denali light bar back about a year ago, I had to remove the bottom panel under the "beak" assembly. I never reinstalled the panel because it looked like I would have to do some cutting on it to make it fit around the light bar. I was surprised how much road noise seemed to...

    Gawdawful hot weather, riding gear

    I've visited your lovely countries in the summer and nearly froze my Florida butt off. A mountain top in Wales on July 4th and a day in Wiggan in June, the coldest places on earth, to this southern boy.

    Gawdawful hot weather, riding gear

    I am looking for the mesh-y-est of mesh gear for my wife. I mean so meshy that if fishnet panty hose came with knee and hip padding, that's what we'd buy. My wife enjoys riding with me but she hates hot weather, which isn't good when you live in Tampa and it's hot and humid 6 months out of the...

    I am looking for a vintage style helmet

    I had a Bell Star 120 with this bill and a half visor on it back in the late 70s. I loved the visor. Protected the eyes from wind blast but gave me a bit of air and it wouldn't flip up or down. I'd like to have something new but with the same configuration but I can't find anything...

    2016: What did you do to/with your NC700 today?

    Hello, I'm back! Spent the afternoon replacing the battery in the NC. Not as easy to do as my other bikes, I must say. Honda doesn't give you a lot of spare battery cable and the battery I picked up didn't make it any easier as well. Anyway, after I got the battery in I had a little gap...

    Triumph 2016 Bonneville T120

    Haha. I guess you're right. For me it's more about feel and handling due to the weight of the bike. The bike doesn't feel like what I would imagine a 1200cc bike should feel like.

    Triumph 2016 Bonneville T120

    Rode my 2000 model Triumph Tbird 900 to one of our local Triumph shops. I'd been looking at the 2015 Bonneville they had in the showroom and they told me to let them see my old bike some day. Anyway, I get a call saying that the new T120, 1200cc model is in stock and that they would like to...

    Hello from Jacksonville FL

    Welcome to Florida from Tampa (actually Brandon) Florida. Hope you are enjoying your NC700x as much as I am.

    New 2015 NC700XD Radiator broke after 2 months - Denied by extended warrenty

    My concern isn't price as much as how well does it protect, how long will it last, does it fit well and install easily.

    New 2015 NC700XD Radiator broke after 2 months - Denied by extended warrenty

    What would be consensus on the best radiator guard for the NC? There are fancy laser cut ones out there but I'm more concerned about protection than fancy graphic designs.

    Weekend Installation: Denali Lightbar and D2 lamps

    If anyone else has used the Denali lightbar for the NC700x, I'd like to hear how you handled another issue. To mount the light bar, you have to remove the bottom plate located under the beak below the headlight. The instructions refer to trimming this plate if you wish to reattach the bottom...

    Weekend Installation: Denali Lightbar and D2 lamps

    Yes, this was the problem. I eventually found a constant on power source and everything is working as expected. Now I'm looking for tips on aiming the lights. I've aimed them the way I think they should be but it seems like I get a lot of light vertically with the low beams. When I aim them...
