    Front Rotor options

    So, has anyone tried any of the aftermarket options for a front rotor? Mine has 0.3mm of wear left, so I've ordered one to keep on hand for my next pad change. The only options I found were OEM (Sunstar) - MSRP $400+ :eek: - Best price I've found $272 & Free shipping at Procaliber TRW/Lucas...

    Torque specs

    I made a google doc of the more common maintenance items' torque specs so I could have it on my phone. Much easier to clean the grease off of than a paper manual :D Can't figure out an easy way to embed it here, but here's a link...

    Lowering the brake pedal

    So, I've got Buell Ulysses pegs on my bike, for a bit over an inch of drop, far more comfortable with my 35" inseam. The brake pedal is dropped as far as I can get it without modifying the brake light switch. It's okay in my wedge sole work boots, but if I ride in anything with a heeled sole...

    NC700x Non-Abs Front Brake Pads

    So, I found a thread about pads for the ABS caliper, but not really one for the non-abs. I ride mostly commuting on urban freeways and through city traffic, with some rides through the mountains. I used my stock front pads up by 7,000 miles. Tried EBC organics after that, they're probably...

    A different trip meter problem. Won't reset.

    So my trip meters won't reset. "A" button and "B" button both seem to work for momentary presses. When I hold down A, it either does nothing, or puts me in setting mode, as though I had held down A and B. Anybody had this issue? Anyone know if I can get in to clean the switch contacts?

    The Radian breathes once more.

    Just got this guy running again. My first bike, sold it to a friend, he rode it for a bit, neglected it for six months. It fired right up, but leaked gas like crazy from the fuel line tee between the carbs. Pulled them apart, replaced the tee, cleaned everything out. Just rode it over to put...

    Decided to build my own givi side carriers.

    I had some time on my hands this week, so I decided to make some side carriers. Got some Kappa KGR33 cases on the way from Motostorm Made them from stainless, so they won't need paint.

    DIY Handguard LED marker/turn signals

    So, I liked the idea of hand-guards with LED accent lights on them, but wasn't really liking any of the options I saw enough to justify their cost. Decided to modify my cheap trackside brush guards. I used stick on amber LED strips with a piece of black plastic glued over the top with RTV...

    Fix for SW Motech rack causing sticky seat latch.

    When I put my rack on, it caused the pillion seat to catch a bit on the grab rails, making the latch just a bit sticky. I got a second hand corbin dual seat set, and things got worse. I found if i removed a really tiny amount of material and took out the washers between the rails and rack...

    Sw motech rear rack with honda sidecases?

    Anyone know if the sw-motech top rack will conflict with the honda sidecase mounts? I was eventually going to get the motech sidecarriers, but there's a really good deal locally on some honda sidecases.

    Vibrations smoothed out after break-in?

    So, got about 150 miles on my NC, A little suprised how much engine vibration I get. Nothing too disconcerting, but substantially rougher than the I4 Yamaha Radian it replaced. I've read several folks' descriptions of the NC as the smoothest thing they'd ever ridden, and I imagine they...
