Ducatiderek, Sorry for not seeing your post earlier..... I ordered the same center stand from Webbkie and it arrived after a couple of weeks. Putting it on was more than I could do so I took it to the shop to put the springs on and it took them an hour. Good luck. The main reason I am...

ItchyBoots....... OldCanRide, She also has a great YT channel and either Royal Enfield, or one of their distributors, gave her a new Himalayan and she is on her second big ride and is currently in South America. Slo_Rider

Himalayan....... Wonder what that means for the Himalayan, if anything? Slo_Rider

Tires...... 670cc, Has anyone ever tried just using a big C-clamp to break the bead on a tire? Slo_Rider

Himalayan..... DrDubb, This is a young lady who picked up a Himalayan and then rode it 30000km with few if any problems. YouTube Good luck, SL0_Rider

Drain plug...... GregC, Glad things worked out in the end. This website does not list a unit to fit the NC, but installing one might make things easier in the future. https://fumotousa.com/ I have no experience with these units but the idea is interesting. Slo_Rider

F1........... DirtFlier......... Thanks very much. Even at $100, that would be much cheaper than my Sling at $25/month. I will look into it this evening. As I implied, F1 is starting to be less interesting, especially since Fernando left, but I would like to finish out the season...

Folks, Since this thread indicates non motorcycle topics are ok I have a F1 question. For the past few years I have watched Formula1, (the only sport I follow), on SlingTV. In the past the race time would be indicated and I would watch hours to days later, sometimes multiple times, and...

Lithium Jump Starter............ Folks, Anyone willing to recommend a brand and a specific model? Slo_Rider

8K Service........... Landerson31, Depending on where you live, could you look for someone doing the same service on their bike and offer to help them? That way you get the benefit of their experience and see what tools you may need if you tackle it on your own. Slo_Rider

Prop rod.......... booblinker, The second beer always helps.:cool: Slo_Rider

Centerstand.......... Junkie, Could you just attach some crutch tips to the centerstand, perhaps with some washers inside? Slo_Rider
