Here’s the unboxing vid – Here’s the install vid – I’ll explain the ride difference once I get a chance to really get out on them and try them out. But so far they are much stiffer and I can’t bottom out just by sitting on the bike 😉.

Time for Another Adventure!
It has been awhile since we got back from Alaska/Canada and it is time for another Epic adventure. This time we will be trekking on ancient ’80s machines. And this Honda Beauty: There is something about it not really being adventure if you are in complete control of the situation and that is probably whyContinue reading “Time for Another Adventure!”
Said Goodbye to the CTX700 and Grom, but Hello to a 2013 Honda NC700X
Picked this up for a very fair price last week and have started modifying it for Alaska. It only has 3000 miles on it which for a 2013 seems very low.

AnywayContinue reading “As a Grom Rider Should I Take Offense?”

Motorcycle Transportation for Multiple People
I was thinking about how motorcycles are used in much of the world as a mainstay of transportation, both for individuals and products. In the USA most motorcyclists use their motorcycles sparingly, like when the weather is good or maybe if there is a rally or ride. Sure there are plenty of Americans that commuteContinue reading “Motorcycle Transportation for Multiple People”
