Congrats on the buy and sell. Interesting that you got more reputable buyers when you raised the price a bit.

Good luck with it. Give me a buzz when you head north on your trip, and we can get a beer.

No insurance? Hard to say what might have gotten damaged, probably depends on how fast you were going when it went down? Hopefully you came out ok.

Very cool. Though I dont see the pic. Where in S. Fl? I'm in Miami right now with the wife visiting relatives for the holiday.

I also would suggest an in helmet communications system like Sena or Cardo. You hear the music fine, even with earplugs can also answer calls on the phone or listen to the radio (mine has a tuner built in). With speakers you have to blast the music loud enough so it overcomes the noise of the...

But there is some cracking in the tread grooves, that tire is drying out. I think that is why he posted that picture in the first place.

It still has some tread left, but is a 2016? Thats 5 years and if its always been a FL bike, its had a lot of heat to deal with. Since you have the new tire, just go ahead and change it already.

Concur, that is a very cheap price, I have the exact same bike. Even in non-covid crazy times, that is very low.

7-8 years or more seems to be average for the batteries in these sensors.

I picked up a small compressor off amazon. Has one of those right angle snap on air chucks with a pretty flexible if not very long hose. Runs on 110 or 12v, has a preset for pressure to shut off. I set it to about 37 for the front and ran it up from 32. Stopped at 37 but then pressure dropped...

It looks like the OEM manuals are still being sold online, going price is about110 bucks, some with shipping. Thinking about getting one because sooner or later I will need it. If you look at all Delrays posts you will see he has documented much of what the routine service on these bikes...

Some interesting tangents... For the finagling part, when the brass chuck is attached to the hose, there is only so much room to maneuver it in between the rotors to make contact. More interesting, I have that exact little battery operated compressor. I havent tried to use it on this bike...

Not sure what BMW was thinking, but putting air in the front tire is a royal pia. With the straight metal valve and the interference from the two brake rotors it is always a bear to get the air chuck on square enough to put air in and not have it leak back out. I picked up one short angle...

This is a real trike, and no my wife is not standing on the seat, she is on the stone wall behind it.

These trike conversion kits are expensive training wheels. I've seen some that actually replace the rear wheel and power the outside wheels, but not this one. So you add in all the weight of the extra wheels and frame but limit the ability of the bike to do much more than go in a straight...

I had a pcx 150, fun little bike, not great for highways, but super on side roads. Wasnt familiar with the Norton so I googled it. Very cool classic British bike. I can imagine its worth something these days. I started back riding with a Silverwing then went to a BMW R1200RT for a year or...

Welcome aboard. Did you get the C650 in addition to all the other bikes?

If you can swing it, I would tell you to get a 2016 plus which is the second gen. The issues with the timing chain should be sorted out, variator is a bit different, center stand has been modified to make it easier to get it up. Other than that they are still the same for the most part.

If you want a trike, get a trike. The Rykers made by can am have either a 600 or 900 cc engine, cvt transmission. People seem to like em. When they came out they were around 8-9 grand for the 600 and maybe 9-10 for the 900 variants. Of course Covid has driven those prices out of reason, but...

And I thought we had lost you....
