Honda CTX 1300 C-ABS Test Riding-It is amazing | Bikes Doctor
The google translator has some fun with this one.

I think they kinda liked it except for the stuff they didn't. I'm just not sure which is which.Wow!! The Spanish translation is almost as bad as the French translation.lol lol I STILL don't quite understand what they were saying.It must be me.lol Dave!!!
I'm pretty sure I will be in the latter group. I wear a XXXL helmet with an attached Bluetooth headset, so I'm 99% sure the helmet just won't fit. So today I ordered a Helmet Guardian (www.helmetguardian.com) from Twisted Throttle. That will attach to the bike behind my license plate and give me the ability to lock up two helmets if I need to. That was a nice feature on the Gold Wing and I want it back.Another interesting data point is that some people go "OMG, my helmet fits in the sidebags, so cool" and others go "There's no way in **** my helmet would fit there".
I had a Helmet Guardian on another bike. Worked great, but the only problem with it was that the hats hung too close to the mufflers (I think I had it on my ST1300). The pipes stop well short of the rear axle on this CTX, so that's not gonna be an issue for you. And it certainly is way more convenient than yanking off the seat to lock up your hat(s).I'm pretty sure I will be in the latter group.

I'm ordering various other parts for the new bike, too, so they will be ready to go once it arrives. A black license plate frame and bolts, a short USB to Lightning cable for my iPhone 5 to go into the right hand compartment. And most of all, the Skene Design lights to make me visible. Even if the weather doesn't cooperate for a couple of weeks yet, the bike will keep me busy installing accessories!
