Hello to everyone here. I have decided to purchase a 700x (Manual). I have $8,000 to get the bike (New or Used) and another $2,000 for initial gear purchase.
With that out of the way, I am looking for you experienced NC700x's to give me real world advice on some of the first things to purchase.
What I have planned so far (Feel free to tell me I am bonkers for this list)
1. Crash Bars - SW-MOTECH $230
2. Foot Pegs - SW-MOTECH $153
3. Communication - Sena SMH10R Bluetooth Headset - Dual Pack - $300 (one for me and one for my buddy)
4. Hand Guards - Barkbusters Storm $164
5. Saddle Bags - Everything is really expensive here and I looking for a direction on tough, functional, and non-flashy containers. I plan on using the bike to get me up dirt roads, and mountains for camping.
This will be a commuter bike for me 6 days a week. About 600-800 miles a month. Plus Trips to Big Sur and the like for camping.
Thank you in advance for your time and input.
