The bike's nice right out of the crate...enjoy it for a bit as-is. There's plenty of aftermarket mods available to customize it to your liking. Welcome from Gainesville, Florida, mate.

Welcome! Does anyone know if Honda is putting a more powerful battery in the newer bikes? If not, the stock battery at only 230 CCA is too wimpy and will give you the dreaded hot engine restart issue whereby the bike won't restart after the engine heats up. I would highly recommend replacing the battery with a good quality Lithium battery.

Here's a link to the issue and thanks to @Kbuskill for finding the solution to the problem! I bought the EarthX ETX36C, pricey, but it's worth every cent. No more hot engine restart problems.

EarthX Battery Review

So as some of you know I bought the EarthX lithium iron phosphate (LiFeP04 ) battery recently and there was some interest in my evaluation of it once I had time to ride with it in for a bit, mainly in hot start situations. Well I took Marilyn out to stretch her legs over the past few days as...

Welcome aboard! Yeah, there's good advice here. Don't feel bad if the seat gets to you, many of us ended up changing the stock seat. Also, if you are longing for a 6th gear, we all feel it too.

We have a google map of the Fury Nation, you can see it from the link above my signature picture. We are filling it with willing members, ride locations, hangouts, routes, etc. If you WANT, we can add you on there as well, just need a zip code (no addresses on the web!), and we can get it done. If you don't want on there that's fine too, check it out and see if anyone is nearby!

Watch out on the roads, you can't trust anyone, and it gets worse every year. Enjoy!

Thanks for the advice mate.... I've already dealt with the seat issue😂😂ill post some pics over the weekend when I get a minute.
Thanks for replying back, can't wait for the better weather to get her out there!

Hey mate, welcome to the club. I got mine new in 2015, best advice I can give you is as follows:

1. Ride it before you change it.
2. Harden the rear shock up - those roads round Warrington are going to cause you to bottom out on bends and smack the frame rails - trust me on this.
3. If you do go for custom exhaust (which you will!), watch out for two things - grounding on right handers and the little recessed allen bolt sitting in the swing arm just in front of the rear spindle. If you cover that with the exhaust it may mean you have to take the exhaust off to get the back wheel off....
