Hi to all!
1st, excuese my bad english, hope you can understand me...
The summer is over and the autum, I afraid, also. Since april this year
i drive my (ex)new @ about 17000km and now itīs time for any questions.

1. The actual temperatures in the night around 0 degrees C , and so I
will by and, if possible, istall "heating grips". Witch model,
distributor (Germany), how expensive....together, what you prefer? Iīm
not the "screwer" can I install that??

2. I have install 5 stars Crash bars. In that short time since april
they broke two times :-( The ground was only the vibration, no crash.
(ok. my bike lay on the side, a real enduro bike must that do!) Is that
"normal" or 5 stars crash bars are expensive scrap?

3. I have "tuned" my Tripmaster as a digital Speedometer. He shows
normally the speed in km/h, sometimes, why ever, mp/h. I must remove the
battery for a compete reset from the tripmaster. After that procedure
everything is o.k. Has someone identical experiences/solutions?

4. My original Honda chain was after about 11500 km scrap. o.k. Iīm not
the slowest driver but I think that canīt be normal!!

5. I have a K&N Airfilter and for 2 month a dynojet Kit, installed form
my Honda dealer....Resume over 1 l/100km more fuel consumption (around
7,5l/100km), no increasing of hp or top speed tangible. On telefon
micron says thatīs not normal, in the badest case the fuel consumption
ist identical and a increasing of power....

6. I will by a touring wind shield, witch model, distributor, price....
Iīm 1,86 m high and with the original wind shield the "wind diffusions"
are in the middle of my face.

7. the last...at the actual temperatures my water thermometer ist
"frozen", it moves a little bit only on highway. What is the difference
between hot water (cooler is on) and the begin of the temperature scala?
Is that for the engine o.k. to work in cooler conditions?

Thank you
Knut
