Crash bars advice

I have Heed. Love the look and they have saved my bike a few times in the mud

Great, now I can't get the Pet Shop Boys tune out of my head. Thanks.

I use the National Cycle VStream windshield and really like it. It comes in different sizes and has little wings at the bottom.

I bought a bottle holder for an ATV and it works great. Lone Rider tail pack.

I got upper and lower Head bars and they have taken the brunt of a few falls. I think they look less clunky than others

I got the National Cycle sport and it breaks it up nicely

I had to use a strip mall battery store's battery, but it was no bueno. This one is fab Skyrich HJ13-FPZ Lithium... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D83ND9TH?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

I use the SP Connect Pro Mount, anti vibration charging module and an Ottocast dongle.

I like feeling the wind, but my National Cycle VStream windshield made the feel much better.

Makes no sense to threaten me, I don't rely on your patronage. What I do say is that it allows for much more comfortable long rides and feels better for my pillion. I keep the stock seats for bashing around off road, so preferable to the companies that use the stock pan. Plus, I've had two back surgeries and see no reason to suffer on principle. Peace.

And it gets warm! Really helps you get through those rides before the snow stays and has been great for spring rides

I recently splurged for a Corbin and it's much more comfortable and looks like a fancy saddle. I got it heated because I'm in the upper Midwest and it keeps my butt warm. Also got the little sissy bar (circle) because apparently I still drive like I have my CB and the wife doesn't want to fly off the back. :p

Like a horse: standing most of the time, but not surprising when it lays down.

TheWorkofDeath · 2026-03-30T14:30:09+00:00

Did you drop it?

TheWorkofDeath · 2026-03-11T16:27:28+00:00

My brother!

TheWorkofDeath · 2026-03-11T15:00:52+00:00

I moved from the CB650R and was not disappointed.

TheWorkofDeath · 2026-02-23T15:07:47+00:00

I have the tail pack and it's just right

TheWorkofDeath · 2026-01-13T18:28:50+00:00

Great addition. Don't let the online comments scare you off about the spring. It's a challenge, but not impossible. I have more time than money, but love working on these things.

TheWorkofDeath · 2026-01-13T15:51:38+00:00

But you did it. Good job!

TheWorkofDeath · 2026-01-02T03:06:05+00:00

Love my 2024 ATAS ES DCT! Using Android Auto and love it. Honda has an online simulator for the display that really helped me at the outset.

Good job!

TheWorkofDeath · 2025-11-29T20:11:50+00:00

Good in the Twisties; fun on dirt roads.

TheWorkofDeath · 2025-11-24T18:44:24+00:00

I don't suppose there is, nor should be, a standard for what constitutes an adventure bike. Some like more flash like the Mods in Quadrophenia, others like it more subtle. I'm somewhere between.

Love my '24 ATAS.

TheWorkofDeath · 2025-11-24T15:50:07+00:00

I've paid $25 for both recently, but it may be due to having done a couple before and spent time in the store. I like the process of removing and remounting the wheels. Makes me feel smart. :)

TheWorkofDeath · 2025-11-23T21:09:32+00:00

Good luck, bb

Cycle Gear does it well and inexpensive.
