    Center Stand

    Yes Knob, both of those lifts are good, but because of a back injury and several knee surgeries, it's difficult for me to get down on the floor and up again, although I would rather do my own maintenance than take a bike to a dealer or independent mechanic. This is why I use the Harbor Freight...

    Center Stand

    This looks good, Knob, but it still only gets the DINO up about 34cm and costs 132 Euro (plus shipping, I suppose), quite pricy. This shop, MotoBike, is a good resource for the DINO. Revzilla (Philadelphia, PA) has an unbelievable selection of OEM Honda parts for the DINO and I have gotten...

    Center Stand

    I can't disagree with your photos, Knob. It looks like #10003271 would do the job, at least get the bike off the ground and level. Actually, your garage/workshop looks cleaner than my kitchen. The truth is that I asked him specifically if he would recommend the unit that you described...

    Center Stand

    Knob, I thought that the Rothewald would be a good investment, but before ordering it, I wrote to the manufacturer, and their technical support people discouraged the use of their support on the DINO. Here is their response: From: [email protected] <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, June 20...

    Center Stand

    Ditto. Thanks, Knob.

    Center Stand

    Thank you, Knob. This looks interesting and may give me just the lift that I need, if only 28 cm (better than 0). Have you used this lift on your DINO or know of anyone who has, without damaging the frame? I have sent a query to the Louis company and will report what they tell me. Thanks again...

    Engine Stutter

    I will try to do that this week. I am having surgery on my right knee (thanks to the last MSF course I took =, which led me to buy the Dino and take my test at a DMV, and my right knee is painful, but if the weather isn't too bad, I'll give it a try this week and report back. Regarding gears...

    Engine Stutter

    I appreciate all of your input, fellow DINO riders. I wish that the bike ran and decelerated smoothly, like other bikes I have owned, I cannot slow down for a traffic stop without all the bucking and jerking, and without a clutch lever, all I can do to get a smooth slowdown is put it in...

    Engine Stutter

    WOW! Lots of technical information here, unfortunately way over my head. I appreciate your help. How do I determine if my DN-01 has one or two probes, and where are they located on the bike? Do I need to install the power device (06-010-0196A) in the bike and where does it attach? I apologize...

    Thanks, Gizmo. It DOES happen around that speed. Why does the trans do that?

    Engine Stutter

    Well, the weather was nice earlier this week, so I took a break restoring and repairing past sins on the Dino and decided to ride it a bit. I was very impressed with the smoothness, the quick jump for the traffic lights and the handling of the bike. I took a ~200-mile ride with a buddy at...

    OEM parts

    If you go to Revzilla, they have every OEM part for the bike, including an official Honda dipstick, unique to the DN-01. I ordered body parts that were badly scuffed, worn bolts and screws, filters and new tires from them. Fast free delivery and returns and good customer service and advice, if...

    Cell phone mount

    I saw this one on Amazon and decided to go for a more rugged handlebar mount https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01LWDCSIZ/ref=ppx_od_dt_b_asin_title_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I also considered one with a reservoir mount, as I have that type on my Gold Wing, but I'm happy with the Roam mount so far.

    Center Stand

    Almost all of my bikes (mostly larger than the DN-01) have been equipped with a center stand. Does anyone know of a source for an aftermarket center stand that will fit the DN-01 and be easily installed? Also, where are the recommended lift points for the DN-01? I have a large Harbor Freight...

    Headlight Replacement

    Gizmo, you can also order the Pathfinder bulb (most say it's the best) from J&P Cycles, maybe at a slightly lower price if you're a J&P Gold Club member. Tony...

    Headlight Replacement

    Gizmo, the LED not only lasts longer than a halogen bulb, but runs cooler (since it uses less amps) and is brighter than the halogen bulb it replaces. This is why people replace their old halogens with LEDs. I checked with the guys at SoCalMotoGear, and they say that their DF00H7 LED bulb is a...

    Sure, I'll take them. Email me at [email protected] and we can arrange the details. Tony

    Tyres removed

    I need to do a number of things and I want to raise the bike up to a decent height, so I don't have to lay on the floor, After three knee surgeries and a torn PCL, I'm looking for an alternative way to service the bike, as I do with the Gold Wing. If anyone has used a motorcycle jack, please...
