I have the oxford adventure grips, and they are thicker than stock, but I find them to be more comfortable because of this. I used doublesided tape and a solvent to mount them instead of the super glue.

these are $14 for a pair, and virtually identical to the NC mirrors. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00CHCPT32/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I had a pair on my last bike

Marquez and the Honda GP team just pulled this stunt https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8CEokXWjNwU

I bought one of these last week, but haven't used it yet: http://a.co/4U1cyNj not waterproof though it depends on which jacket I wear on how exposed my neck is, so most of the time I don't need anything. Last few times I commuted in single digits I just wrapped a shemagh around the neck to...

you just have to trim out the middle bit of it. Doesn't the Denali directions have a little template of what you need to cut? If not, I think the "honda light bar" accessory requires the same bit to be trimmed, so you can use those directions as reference.

probably has 5700 worth of farkle alone!

danmoto muffler is the only engine mod I have, which I wouldn't think would decrease backpressure all that much since the cat is still there, but the popping on decel has been audible ever since the muffler swap. I imagine my air filter is due for a beat-out, but I don't see a dirty filter...

decided to give the booster plug a try, installed this morning and went out for 80ish miles. Night and Day compared to yesterday's ride. No more popping on decel, no more surging down low, it's a game changer. I rode out to a dealer and took the Africa Twin for a test drive, you could notice the...

Shinko 705's maybe?

no, just got stuck on a big root and some rocks under the water. one of the guys on a dirt bike was like "well, I've certainly never seen an NC do that before!"

Saturday: damn 17" front wheels

I put a 46t on the rear from "Sprocket Center", as recommended by bamamate. lightweight steel. You can buy a whole kit from them: front, back, and chain for $145ish.

I use a tablet as a GPS, I need to mount mine vertical, I can't see it if I'm wearing polarized sunglasses when it's horizontal. I wish I could mount it horizontal above the "gauge cluster" like a rally bike, would be easier to see without having to look down so far.

found the limit of the NC on a trail this weekend. I think I missed a turn. trees are in full turn in NH though
