Hey guys! I recently noticed on my ride to work today that my 2013 CB1100 suspension is way too soft and I can’t even hold a line right without it bouncing all around. I am about 205lbs. The rear shocks are set to 2nd setting from softest and I haven’t messed with the front yet. Can any one recommend a good setting for my weight?

Much appreciated!

Is it possible to get bobbins or bars that do not bolt on to the engine. I had this same issue with my XSR700 after I purchased a set, they bolted straight to the engine. I don't see the point on them bolting to the engine as a strong force exerted on them will damage the engine casing perhaps catastrophically. the very thing they are supposed to prevent. I am looking for bobbins or crash bars therefore that only bolt to the frame, can't seem to find any. Reasonably priced as well.

2017 EX
Since my front tires needed replacement (after only 4,500 miles) up to the tread wear indicator, I did some research on Tires and Rim fitment.

FYI - I updated my rims to accept tubeless tires a few years earlier.

My findings is as per attached picture below.

Good Day Gents, I was just trying to get some information on the "REAR" brake pad thickness when "NEW", I have the specs when the pad reaches the wear limit indicator but not the thickness when new.
I've seen someone posted it a while back but cannot locate the tread.
Mine is a 2017 EX

Thanks

"I have an idea -- Let's help The Ferret achieve his goal of riding in all 48 contiguous US states!!"

I don't know who originally spoke or typed those words. It could of been any us who love this forum and this man. I suppose, in a way, it was all of us.

As of May 1, 2022, he needed 5 states: Delaware, New Jersey, Connecticut, Rhode Island, and North Dakota. By June 1, with the help of InhouseBob, The Ferret had checked off 4 of the 5 (you can read about that adventure in "ECROW" posted elsewhere in Seat Time). By July 1, with the help of good weather, Offroadfx4, my lovely wife, and a few good friends, TheFerret will be able to mark off North Dakota and complete his 48. That trip begins on Friday, June 24 for TheFerret, Saturday June 25 for Offroad, and Sunday June 26 for me and Cheryl. We hope to cover 1300 motorcycling miles in 5 states over 6 days. When complete, I will leave it to others to figure out how we get him to Alaska and Hawaii for the last 2 states and maybe we can get Nemo to help him collect Puerto Rico (Guam and other US Territories may be problematic).

I will post my report and photos of this tour in this thread. Offroad and The Ferret should feel free to add or amend to my reports as they see fit.

Hi all? Today I was out riding and after hitting a bump my Speedo tach and clock all shut off I tried restarting the bike but nothing. I am wondering what may have caused that and what the fix may be. I’ll add that this is a 2013 cb1100.

Hello everyone. It’s been a long time since I have posted on here. With the recent spike in fuel prices I have been riding my bike to base everyday and I have to say. I have not ridden this thing nearly enough! I bought it brand new in 2013 and I should have ridden the wheels off of it by now. It’s such a fun bike. I have a question about the power commander auto tune. Is it hard to use? I have zero experience tuning fuel injection systems. I do have a power commander v on the bike but it’s been running the stock power commander tune since 2014. I have a motoworks GP full exhaust on it (bought it shortly after I got the bike only one available at the time.) and just ordered a set of stock intake stacks to bore out and put in. Anyone have any video recommendations or write ups on how to use the auto tune correctly? I don’t want to mess anything up. It’s great being back on 2 wheels.

Another thread another few wires to cram into the headlight.
This time to add a mount and wireless charging for my phone in the form of a quad lock.

Here are all the components, instead of the official quad lock power supply which senses the battery and does fancy stuff I used a dumb [url=https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B09B7XZYJQ]12V to 5V 3A USB supply from Amazon.




As if someone was planning for this there is a nice convenient connector in the headlight that supplies power only when the ignition is on.
It uses the SUMITOMO HM 090 connectors which can be found [url=https://aliexpress.com/item/4000883671545.html]here on AliExpress.



I used some heat shrink to cover the USB connection mostly just to keep it in place through all the vibrations.



And here's the final product works pretty well with the phone case.
The only thing I don't like is that you basically have to decide if you want to mount the phone horizontal or vertical as removing the phone is only easy if the longer sides of the puck can be grabbed around the phone.
This could have been solved if the puck had more of a plus/cross shape not just one longer orientation.

Hey guys just installed these front axle sliders, not sure I like the look of them on but hoping if I ever go down they help somewhat. And please excuse the no front fender, currently waiting for my MIZ fender to arrive. Does anyone else here have or have used front axle sliders for our bikes?

hi, i'm ddumzi from korea

I am sorry for my weak English..

I read the thread related to high idle for about a month from page 1 to end, and replaced the problematic iacv with an improvement.

Preheating at 1500 rpm during the initial cold start will bring it down to 1000 rpm, and it will go up to 1500 rpm again after running.

After 20 minutes of starting at 1500 RPM and re-igniting, it will be fixed at 1000 RPM and then high idling issues will occur again as it is driven.

I don't think it's an ECM problem because the RPM has not been lowered and the engine is turned off yet. Even if it is a problem, this product is domestic product in Japan, and ECM update or reflash is not possible at the Korea Honda Service Center.

The current work details are TPS readjustment, IACV replacement, EOT sensor (part order completed, not yet replaced)

On the scanner, the O2 sensor-related circuit low is occasionally displayed. I wonder if the RPM could increase due to this problem.



I really want to solve this problem.
I'd like to get the advice of the forum members.
