    What motorcycle would you choose?

    Why not start with the CTX700? I agree with the above poster - this whole myth that you have to start low and rise up the biking ladder is just that, a myth! The reality is if you're spending money initially on a slower ride and you plan on getting something bigger and faster you're just going...

    NC700X Test Ride

    Thanks for that honest and informative review. Sorry to hear the seat is so awful! Wow, anything that's comparable to water boarding sounds dreadful. Happy to hear the engine and clutch are top notch; very important to me when choosing a bike. So what do you think overall? Do the pros outweigh...

    Honda CTX700 Accessories

    I'd love that rear carrier (that's what she said), I could take the bike to do groceries or on small overnight trips. Have been looking to invest in one of these for a while - had no idea they looked so sleek. I was concerned such an add-on would take away from the bike and make it look cheap...

    Are you an owner or fanatic?

    I'm an owner AND a fanatic! I did a lot of research before purchasing the CTX700 and came to the unabashed conclusion that this bike was the one for me. I love everything about it from its handling to its sleek and sexy design. Safety was a huge factor for me too and the CTX700 delivers on this...

    Motorcycle Tyre (Tire) Markings

    This is awesome! Definitely did not know the intricacies behind something like this - very cool stuff. I always try to get the best tires I can especially when riding bikes which are essentially pieces of metal stuck in between two tires. Suffice it to say, the tires on a bike are extremely...

    Helmet Preference?

    Try to get something that looks good and WORKS. Read up on some reviews before purchasing; does it meet all required safety standards? In a way getting a helmet for your bike is essentially the most important buy you'll ever make. I know looking like a video game character is important - hell I...

    Main Causes of Crashes

    Failure to appreciate the limitations of any vehicle is a huge cause of crashes worldwide. People go out and spend a lot of money on their bikes/cars and think that entitles them to drive like maniacs - not so! You have to respect the local road laws and respect the way your bike or car handles...

    Safety for every bikers

    Oh man! Getting on a bike with sandals is the worst thing you could do. Please be safe and never do that again! I've done some stupid stuff on bikes in my day including wearing sandals or not wearing a jacket and I've been very lucky not to have been seriously injured. I have some friends that...

    Bleeding brake fluid

    Definitely google it but if in serious doubt don't hesitate - take it to a local, trusted mechanic. I'm very lucky to have some honest and very knowledgeable guys in my neck of the woods that help me out on stuff like this and there's really no substitute for that hands on advice. Break fluid...

    Hot Pink?

    If you're a girl why not? Even if you weren't - if that's your preference in colour do it. I like to see unusual bikes with unusual modifications and colours. Who wants to see the same old, same old day in and day out? People put such limitations on the styles they can sport or the colours they...

    I've always wanted to paint a bike like this

    Go for it man - love that colour. It's very out there; very alien-like. I know some friends who have bikes that have been painted in a very similar way and they always get noticed. I know some people think purple has feminine or other non-masculine connotations but honestly, who cares? People...

    Recall?

    Sorry, I looked and googled my heart out but wasn't able to find anything. Bumping this again because I am curious and want to make sure I'm not driving anything that has been recalled. In my experience Honda has been fantastic about informing the media/consumers about any potential recalls so I...

    Man! This New CTX700 is sweet!

    What a beautiful bike! Would love to get the opportunity to test drive on of these babies. I love mine but wow this is so much nicer. See, I wish you hadn't shown me this because now I look at mine as a lesser model! Oh well, I'll get over it. Thanks so much for sharing this; I'll have to do my...
