    Bluetooth Headset Compatibility / Recommendation

    Probably the same or similar tech on the C400GT and my Schuberth C5 with SC2 comms is pretty much flawless. I agree with the C5 being an outstanding helmet. Hard for me to consider going back to Arai, even with Schuberth's extra weight. Could not imagine a quieter, more comfortable, and more...

    Speed limit indicator not working

    My downloaded maps appeared to be there but required an update. The file size on the update was as large as the maps themselves so I presume they were gone. No correction yet.

    Speed limit indicator not working

    Same thing, kind of. Mine is only showing 77 or 88 as the speed limit in the road I’m driving on, which of course are not DOT approved speed limits.

    I think I did too! I can’t recall if it was that or on the 2025 bikes. I want that NT1100 Honda has everywhere but here in North America. Almost a Cinderella bike for me.

    I meant intentional hyperbole used by the author, not you! Sorry for lack of clarity on that.

    I see your points but think much of what you cited is intentional hyperbole to try to be more impactful.

    https://www.advrider.com/the-age-of-discontent/ It's not just about motorcycling but rather about how our social and cultural conditions may be impacting the industry and our attitudes toward it. It's worth the read.

    Hyperpro Shocks

    That is too bad about the experience you had with the Andreani Group and their products. I’ll install the shocks this weekend and report back. I should be able to dial them in quickly as the provide a + - of five clicks recommended setting based on the build.

    Hyperpro Shocks

    I have looked at Ohlins and considered it as an option. The issue I had with their shocks for this bike was that those who installed them (posts from internet forums) weren't able to do so without trimming plastics. For me personally, that is a deal killer. The other issue I had is that they...

    Hyperpro Shocks

    Any website glitches aside, I think their quick response goes to my characterization of the company as being reliable and responsive. In my opinion, replacing either the front or the rear stock suspension, on any motorcycle, leaves the remaining stock suspension begging for an upgrade. The...

    Hyperpro Shocks

    I purchased these shocks, and all of my other Hyperpro suspension products, from EPM Performance. I’m not in the habit of recommending products or shops, except for EPM and Skene. The staff ant EPM are incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. I’ve never anything other than a great experience...

    Hyperpro Shocks

    I've had Hyperpro on the last five bikes I've owned, except the Xmax as it would have been an expensive custom build. I am 100% confident the ride will be improved as it is built to my riding style and sprung for my weight. Plus it has high an low speed compression damping. I am with you on...

    Arrived. I may get them on this week.

    Alarm?

    I spotted this listing as I was browsing cycle trader. It is a c400GT and it says it has an alarm (it's here in Florida). Do any of the contributors here know if there is an alarm option available here in the USA for the C400GT (23 model year is what I own). I don't need an alarm, but I like...

    C400GT Top Box

    I didn't remove the tub either. But I did when I had to replace one of the handrail bolts. Definitely an easier task when the tub is out; but the reason I removed it was to apply ACF 50 on all of the parts prone to corrosion under there, not necessarily to make it the bolt replacement easier.

    C400GT Top Box

    It does look really good!

    C400GT Top Box

    I don't have an answer that is reliable but an owner over on advrider had his powder coated black and it looks really good. I presume that at least at that time it was only available in silver.

    2023 Schuberth C5

    The really nice feature on this helmet is that it is also safety rated as a jet helmet by USDOT and ECE. You raise the chin bar, hit the lock, and it’s a 3/4 with a dropdown visor. I get the claustrophobic concerns. I developed real but intermittent claustrophobia about 6 years ago. Came out...
