Is there a good/great source for the hardware (nuts and bolts) for the OEM racks and saddlebags? I know I’m missing some, but I’m not sure what yet. I have all mounts and grab rails etc.
I had the OEM setup before I pulled it off for a GIVI setup, now I’m getting ready to sell so I want to go...
I bought a set of universal turn signals that also have red LEDs. What says you on wiring them up to the brake lights or the running lights? To the best of my knowledge I can't do both. (Three wire setup)
I was just watching some random videos and around the 3 minute mark something caught my eye in the background.

There are two great american trails that are on my bucket list. As a backpacker, living on the east coast, the Appalachian trail is one.
The other, and more related here, is the Trans-american trail. (TAT) I have had a fascination with this trail since I've heard of it. I've been...
I have recently dug myself out of the rock I've been hiding under and started posting again. For the most part there is a reason, I'm slowly starting to pull information together in preparation for a slightly epic ride. The general plan is in one day go from My home in Strasburg, VA to La...
So it's about that time where I start to look at buying a new helmet. So far in all my years of riding, around 8 years, I have only used full faced helmets. I've been looking at some of the other styles and can't quite make up my mind. I like the look of the adventure helmets and I think the...
I'm finally thinking about changing from the stock windscreen. After over 20000 miles including several long trips I'm looking to cut the wind down. I've had my eye on the sleeker looking screens, givi and zero gravity are two. Looks are still important to me as function hasn't completely...
I didn't take a lot of pics on this trip, I'll have to make sure to do that on the next go around.
After a stressful week we found ourselves with a kid free weekend. What better way to blow some steam and relax than to take an overnight trip on the bike? The weather forecast was calling...
As we know givi made the OEM stuff, which I currently have. I've just bought new givi saddlebags and the givi mounting brackets, which plate would I need to get of I wanted to keep using the OEM trunk? Is there a plate or am I pretty stuck with buying a new trunk?
I'm starting to plan an epic multi month ride around north America on the good ol ncx. I have no idea where I'm going, but I have a passport already so that's nice.
Right now I have the oem luggage, but I just ordered bigger saddlebags, I might keep the rear trunk... I'll decide on that...
What would be the perfect bike for two up touring going from Deadhorse Alaska to Panama? If I was running solo it would be the NCX no problem, but not so much with a passenger. The BMW GS is an obvious choice but it's a bit heavy and pricey for my taste.
I'm kicking around the idea of a Fall get together (FGT) around Shenandoah National Park, A.K.A. Skyline drive. This spot is almost centrally located on the east coast and is near some major highways which should make travel better. There are plenty of camping in the area, from places like...
And the winner is...honda. the article even calls the nc700x a amazing success.

What is one farkle that you would change/do differently?
For me it would be going for the Honda line saddlebags. I like the way they look on the bike, but the way that they curve hurts its usefulness. I mostly bought them for how the mounting bracket looks when the bags are off of the...
well it's almost that time of year again, the kids are back in school and we are starting to See pumpkin flavored everything. That can only mean that cold weather is right around the corner. my summer gloves normally do well in the winter with the bike having hand guards and heated grips...
How many miles have you gotten out of your tires? The stock tires I'm just under 7000 miles and I have started to show the cords, that is pretty crappy mileage if you ask me. My next set is going to be dunlop roadsmart tires, not my first choice but motorcycle superstore is running a pretty...
