Got hit from behind & insurance is making you feel some kind of way? Buddy slam dunked your ride out of the parking lot and just perfectly bent your frame? Ship me your entire 8th Gen front end! 😆 I'm looking to convert my beloved 5th gen to a 6th gen triple clamp & 8th gen forks, brakes, wheel & splashguard. You too can partake in my never-ending desire to modify this bike from *barely* this century! Prefer pickup in Houston, TX. Will drive in a ~300 mile radius.

Hi all, So I've decided to upgrade the bike for long hauls by adding a GPS mount and power outlet to my 2009 ABS. I didn't have any room to mount the power outlet on the inner fairing plastics because the ABS module takes up so much room. I'm working on creating a new mounting bracket to hold either a power outlet or USB, or combination of the two. I'll hopefully be working on the prototype this weekend depending on the weather and other commitments, but here is the solution I have come up with so far. As I progress I'll update you all with pics of the completed project

Where is the best cross-reference information (i.e., offset, diameter) for Honda upper & lower triple clamps? (And other compatible models too.) On my 5th gen, I am preparing to replace my OEM/Traxxion forks and delink the brakes. I would welcome any sage advice from those who have already done this. Thanks in advance, Kirk A.

Hello gentlemen, Does anyone know for sure if 8th gen fork offset is the same 40mm as 6th gen and 5th gen? I am in the process of replacing my 5th gen triple clamps with 8th gen top triple clamp and 6th gen bottom triple clamp as part of a suspension upgrade and brake delink [Yes, I am taking photos and yes, will post a build thread]. My notes say that somewhere my research found that the offset of 8th gen triples is 40mm, same as 6th gen and 5th gen [though 5th gen uses 41mm diameter forks]. I did not record the source of my data. BUT - I started measuring the triples before installing today and found 8th gen with almost 2mm less offset than the 6th gen. 8th gen on left, 6th gen on right. Measured from edge of fork leg holes to edge of steering stem holes. Steering stem holes same diameter. Thanks for any input.
