  Great roads
Posted by: the Ferret - 04-03-2018, 01:29 AM - Forum: Motorcycling - General - Replies (30)

some great motorcycle roads in the U.S.

https://matadornetwork.com/trips/12-best...s-america/

I have ridden 10 of the 12 roads on that list. Three Sisters in Texas (Tx 335,336,and 337) and San Juan Mountain Skyway in Colorado have eluded me, although I have ridden in both of those states. I can tell from Stichills recent seat time report I need to go back to Texas. Hopefully another trip to Colorado to pick up San Juan as well.

There are other great roads as well

Lewis and Clark Trail Rt 12 In Idaho
Chief Joseph Pass in Montana Hwy 43
Kancamagus Highway Rt 112 in New Hampshire
Smugglers Notch RT 108 in Vermont
Overseas Highway in Florida US Rt 1
Grand Staircase Escalante Rt 12 in Utah
Rattlesnake Grade in Washington 129 and Oregon 3
Diamond Back Rt 226A, Devil's Staircase and Murder Mountain Run in North Carolina
Claw of the Dragon Rt 16 in Virginia (we rode this at the CB rally in 2015)
Rattlesnake KY 192 in Kentucky

I'm missing 2 from that list as well, Rattlesnake 192 which I hope to hit before the rally in Ky and Grand Staircase Escalante Rt 12 in Utah I hope to ride in September.

How many have you ridden?

Any other great roads you think need to be on the list?

  Anyone know of a source for the factory grips?
Posted by: chync_imp - 04-01-2018, 10:15 AM - Forum: Accessories/Modifications - Replies (2)

I can’t seem to find the grips in the Honda parts house diagrams. It doesn’t seem to be on the handlebars diagram. Does anyone know if they are available?

  Real Retro Looks
Posted by: Reiver_imp - 04-01-2018, 07:30 AM - Forum: General Discussion - Replies (16)

I have to say that I love the admiring looks my bike gets from some of the older bikers and comments such as " you really do keep such an old bike in great condition". People are really surprised when I tell them the bike is a 14 plate and not much older. As its on Irish plates you can't tell the age from the plates easily. I wonder how many riders of other makes retro bikes get the same attention.

  Garnish/grab rails
Posted by: Chris Goldson_imp - 03-31-2018, 07:12 PM - Forum: General Discussion - Replies (5)

One of the things I am nor particularly keen on is the rather bland looking silver garnish rail. Chrome, stainless, or polished alloy would look much better, Does anyone know of any alternatives?

  First Ride observations
Posted by: el duque_imp - 03-31-2018, 02:57 PM - Forum: General Discussion - Replies (12)

It is so smoo.......th I had to look at the speedo and gear indicator once in a while. Quiet.
Only my first 100 miles so my feelings about stuff may change.

The mirrors don't do it for me. I only see about 60% out of them. I might have another go at adjusting them.

Would have liked a bit more room between the shifter and foot peg
I really had to angle my foot down to get under it. I started a bad habit of just shifting with the side of my boot.

Seat started to get a little hard/not so comfy. Might spring for a sheepskin or a foam pad. Ya'll with corbins - Like/ no like?

I like the power. Its not crazy but there is plenty there for my sensibilities.

the little samurider fairing works great. wind but no buffeting. I was pleasantly surprised by this.

There are a few muscles that got a bit more action than they usually get.. I'm kinda sore/felt like I worked it today.

I need some foot pegs to attach to my sw motech engine guards so I can stretch out now and then.

It was cooler than I've ridden on a naked bike in a long time.
Heated grips/liners/vest are definitely in the offing.

I better get used to it... I sold my 83 Goldwing today.

  Oil Filter Change: Every oil change or every other?
Posted by: dbarkdoll_imp - 03-31-2018, 09:05 AM - Forum: Mechanical & Technical - Replies (22)

Just wondering if y'all replace the oil filter every oil change, or every other oil change as the user manual suggests. If you do every other, do you leave the oil filter in place, or take it off and drain it? Thanks.
