) Those are heavy metal and orange where as the CTXs is thin gauge and gray. The others have to go back to Honda else dealer pays $500. SO I'm be taking this crate home (after breakdown) as well as mine later on. I can try to later on. All I can say is Good Thing this bike uses all LEDs which enables a smaller Battery for such a good sized bike. It is in the top left area of the fairing ...just below and toward rear relative to the left speaker!!! This area was uncovered (panel removed) so I noticed it by accident when taking pix of dash space. Since the bike only had its end panels removed just before I got there, NO set up efforts had even started. So this is how they are shipped - with battery in place there vs boxed and secured remotely in the crate. It was disconnected with cables to the side of course. Now knowing that, I'm guessing there may be some other somewhat heavy item(s) on right side in fairing for proper balance. Else the left side is gonna want to preferentially lean. May be good for the side stand ? He was even able to make is next order early so I don't understand why some dealers are saying they can't get or place orders for potential buyers and putting off sales they can make?
CAUTION: I wouldn't do that. Print or write him a bill of sale or sign the registration over to him. That should be a good "bill of sale" and that is all he needs to legally drive it home while pending his own plate. I never let anyone take my plate since I am liable for anything that happens while others may be driving with it. If he totals the bike on the way home and damages other property or people... or worse, YOU are liable at least in part for those damages and open yourself up to law suites as a result.
Well crap, I didn't even realize that was there. Other forums I belong to, if they allow posting files directly from your pc, usually have that option in a separate window. Thanks for that info.Also if you start a thread (like you did) or if you reply be sure to go to "go advanced" and you should see at the top panel a paper clip looking icon like in the screen clip I am attaching. That is the attachments option where you can browse your computer or phone photo gallery and attach photos that way right in the post. They will show up like the screen clip I attached in this post. You can attach a whole bunch in one post. Of course if your not a premium or lifetime user here you don't have as much space for attachments but there is still plenty for a lot of pics if they're not too big (file size, mb or gb).
You will have to remember to select to "upload" after choosing the file to attach... I circled the paper clippy icon in red on the screen capture. Looking forward to seeing those photos!
Maybe they'll open it up when we're over 1,000,000 members and a few hundred thousand hits a day.
I hope you're right. I've been poring over what photos I have so far looking for places to mount things. As it is I will have 4 modules to install somewhere, in addition to the fuse block and relay. Two of those modules have antennas and can't be located under metal. I think I can squeeze at least one of them into the tail section behind the passenger seat. This will be an interesting challenge. I had a lot of experience disassembling the GL1200, but now will have to start all over again. And of course I want to be EXTREMELY careful not to mess up the looks of this bike in any way!
