    How to reduce the throttle return strength

    Thanks! This has bugged me also. If you let go of the throttle does it return to idle properly? Sadly, it is winter so I will wait for Spring to try it out. Another alternative is this kind of thing: https://www.amazon.com/Crampbuster-CB4-Throttle-Mounted-Motorcycle/dp/B001L9KI56/ I tried one...

    Very SLOW acceleration.....

    Is it throwing a DTC? (Diagnostics Trouble Code.) The DLC connector is shown on 135 here: https://www.manualslib.com/manual/1061419/Honda-Nsa700a-Dn-1-2009.html You can also short a wire and record the codes as flashing lights.

    No endorsement because I haven't done it but Dynojet makes a tuner: https://www.dynojet.com/power-commander-v-for-honda-dn-01/ If you choose to try, I would be interested in how it works out.

    Slightly wider tire? or any tire siggestions?

    Thanks for the response. I am in the US and not only is the Dunlop Roadsmart pricey so is the shipping. I am reluctant since motorcycles in the US are subject to inspection; I have no way to tell if the tire will be new enough (<8 year old) and that it will have the DOT approval stamp (similar...

    Slightly wider tire? or any tire siggestions?

    Hello, In the US (or at least my state) many service people will not mount non-matching tires. The treads need to be the same so the front and back grip in a similar way. The front 130/70 17 is becoming more and more rare and worse few of those will have a matching 190/50 17 rear tire. Tires...

    Battery ?

    The DN-01 comes with an AGM battery. Regular lead-acid batteries have a self discharge rate (rate at which they discharge just sitting there) of around 10%/month but it can go way up in cold weather, maybe 20-25%. Worse, once they are discharge they can freeze and be wrecked. AGM batteries...

    Polish on plastic panels?

    I have fine scratches and swirls, particularly around the key area. What polish (not wax, not cleaner) can be used on the plastic panels? Are these actually painted or is the color molded in? TIA. Tim

    Honda OEM Taller windshield?

    Once upon a time, Honda offered a taller Honda branded windshield. As I remember, it was not available in the US where I live. I cannot find any reference to it or where to get one. Anyone know where to find one or at least a part number? I broke my Puig (which I can't find anywhere either) and...

    Tires?

    What tires have you tried on the DN-01? Both Bridgestone and the Dunlop have been discontinued in the 130/70-17 front tire. The choices in the US from Metzler, Bridgestone and Dunlop are all touring tires designed for long wear on a heavy bike. This is becoming a very uncommon tire size, at...

    Opening Givi Sidecases w/o a key?

    I just ordered and received a set of the tech V35 sidecases and the E55 topbox. *BUT* there's no key apparent for the sidecases. I suppose it's possible the keys are locked inside. One has a small rattle. Has anyone opened these without a key? Any tips? Thanks.
