I added hand wings to the mirrors and they work good or,,, not so good. The good. They keep wind off my hands which will be good in cold weather. But I can feel heat from the radiators when their closed. Not so good in warm weather. So you think I'll open them and get some air. Not so good either.
When their open, buffeting is BAD. So much that my eyes are jerky. Will have to play with them a bit to see if there's and in-between setting.
I made a thick (3mm) shim to disable the front anti dive. Much better ride now. While I had it apart, I check the function with front or rear brakes.
They are activated by the rear brake's only. And with an almost full press on the peddle. No action on the front brakes at all. Now that just don't make any sense? The valve was clean but the little piston would not return, keeping the shock locked up. There is a return spring in the receiving end of the unit but its not strong enough to push the piston back. Doesn't sound like Honda put a lot of thought into that. Ive been riding for 40 years without it on heavy bikes and never had a problem with front end diving causing braking issues. Got used to it I guess.
At any rate,, This is by far the best bike I have ever owned. At 65 years old, it will be my last.
Gonna ride till either I can't or the bike won't. Either way I'll be done.
