    2014 NC700XD Ca-chunk, ca-chunk sound when the ignition is turned to "on" not start.

    FWIW, I have a 2014 DCT and didn’t realize that I needed to shift to neutral when turning the engine off; the sound described is EXACTLY what my bike does/did when it was stopped in 1st gear. Still trying to break that habit... I’ve also replaced the battery when it was still tested ok but weak...

    You've got me curious now about the display! Can you post a pic of it? I've got a '14 XD that I really like.

    NC7 Alumni : What have you been up to since your NC7 is now gone?

    Being from MN, I am guessing you've got a snowmobile type trailer (large deck above the wheels) that is going to put the bike higher in the air than a utility trailer. That alone will help keep the road salt off. I agree with the others that a soft cover is NOT a good idea for protecting the...

    BMW R 1200RT gets a new home

    BRAVO! Quite impressive (but then I'm an Electrical type).... The sideways dissection pic had me confused until I caught the mirrors and bars - then my jaw dropped when I realized that the bike back half was JUST GONE! That pic made my day. Way to go Dave! I've never had a Beemer, but ALMOST...

    Can you save me about $30,000? BMW shopping....

    I put them on my bike right off the bat. No problems at all. There is a specific Kaoko model for barkbuster compatibility. After a few cloudbursts and big bug impacts at 65mph, before they got installed; I REALLY appreciated the barkbusters for protection. They also make a big difference in...
