    50,000 Kilometer Tear Down

    "Surely ask grandma out of the venue." That was my favorite part. What I really got out of the video though is the opportunity to see the red bike with those silver trim pieces on the frunk. I think I like that. Does anyone know how they are held on? I guess it could be with automotive grade...

    50,000 Kilometer Tear Down

    I have no idea what these people in the video are actually saying, but I gather they are talking about how good everything looks even after 50,000 Kilometers. I wonder if they mentioned anything about the trip odometer? :rolleyes: http://youtu.be/YfytBIJc3_w

    Honda Trunk Details

    I just realized I never uploaded a photo of the final, Plastidipped trunk.

    Bluetooth options for Vega Summit 3.0

    I can't comment on your particular helmets because I have not see them, but I have the Sena SMH10 in my GMax modular helmet and it is one of the best bluetooth products (motorcycle-related, or not) that I have ever used. The little speakers fit nicely into my helmet's pockets and the SMH10 came...

    Anyone mounted a ram ball on the Honda touring screen?

    I just did this yesterday. Unfortunately, it's a little dark in my garage right now but I tried to get some photos just the same. The RAM mount parts in the photo all came with the TomTom Rider GPS. It took me a while to get an optimum position where none of the "idiot lights" were being...

    While installing a farkle, I spotted a sparkle (actually two sparkles..)

    I think this is a pretty good guess. I was looking at them again today and confirmed that they are only on the left side and they sure do look a lot like the rivets in your photo.

    OEM tire change for 2014?

    My 2014 NC700XD came to me with Dunlop Trailmax D609 tires installed. They seem fine to me but might be wearing a little more rapidly than I'd like.

    While installing a farkle, I spotted a sparkle (actually two sparkles..)

    I have the entire left side of my NC700XD open for the purpose of installing the sub-harness, accessory outlet in the frunk and to run the wiring from my GPS to the new sub harness. While I was just looking around and generally checking things out, I spotted these two sparkling "dots" on the...

    how to connect battery tender cable

    I never have but, not being an electrical engineer, I'm not sure I know exactly why we don't get shocked. Perhaps it is because the vehicle is on rubber tires and I usually am too (in the form of sneakers or rubber soled shoes) or perhaps it is because we humans don't really conduct electricity...

    how to connect battery tender cable

    It makes it easier to remember the order if you consider WHY the order of removal/reinstallation matters at all. It is simply to keep you from mistakenly causing a short between a battery terminal and some part of the vehicle that your wrench or screwdriver might touch. Assuming a negative...

    Corresponding connectors

    Thank you very much for this information. I need one of these connectors to hook up my GPS and had no idea how they are numbered, etc.

    So what did you do TO your NC700 today.

    Plasti Dip'ed my top trunk I Plasti-Dipped the silver parts of my top trunk to get it to blend in more with the red bike. My first use of Plasti-Dip and I found it quite easy to work with. I used the glossifier but it doesn't really add that much gloss. If it doesn't last, I will have to go...

    Finally! NM4 On The Road.

    My favorite example of vehicle names that don't play well in all countries is the Chevy Nova since in Spanish speaking countries Nova, or no va, could be he, she or you don't go. (at least as far as the Spanish I can remember, which is not much!) The NM4 does not look comfortable to me because...

    Two Different Part Numbers, Same Saddlebag Bracket?

    That's what I first thought when I saw the 2014 on one of them but I ordered the carrier and, what some websites call the carrier stays, others call the carrier mount brackets (the things with the grab handles), from my dealer and his catalog didn't list any bikes past 2013. So the carrier and...

    Two Different Part Numbers, Same Saddlebag Bracket?

    Anyone know the difference between 08L73-MGS-A30 and 08L71-MJJ-D30 saddlebag brackets? They sure look the same. (Links go to only website where I found both of them.
