    That's the last straw I'm selling this thing. Can't change pre set radio stations at the handlebars.

    I don't know if you are kidding or not.

    I didn't like reaching down for the channels either. What a screw up by Honda.
    So, I made a little circuit and can now change my preset channels from the handlebar. I put the button in the front of the control housing. It is real easy to access with my forefinger.

    If you know someone who can build a circuit from a schematic, here is mine.

    Seems like a lot of effort for a radio.

    I'm with you, I tried I don't know how many times to toggle between radio preset with the left handle controls. It only seeks!!
