        the bike looks waayy better without that no plate


        ok..just do this:

        turn ur handle to one side and then follow the stem to the inner part...eventually u will reach a big nut... just take a wrech from ur tool kit and start struggling.....it s no so very inside,u can see it...look somewhat abv the horn!

                its justified mate!! when i was upto removing it, i was so nervous of damaging the bike that i even asked "can anyone tell me which side to turn the nut!"..i know that was very lame of me..but ....

                        It looks like the Non ABS one. May be ABS would have avoided that fall.
                        I feel pity for the bike and secondly the rider (B'coz 99% he could be the reason for this).

                          bro u cant help it if someone hits u with a speed from the opposite direction or someone trips over you out of nower..no abs no airbags can save u then....this accident clearly seems to be a case of head on collision/fall...

                          but looking at the clutch shape, its clear that his clutch was aftermarket ultra flexi rubber cluch (ok em kiddin)or, this accident took at a very high speed

                            Yes i agree with you bro, some time things go beyond our control, even i have experienced out of control crashes like when i obeyed a red light and someone smashed from behind. But a sensible ride understanding the surroundings can avoid such collision to a great extent.
                            Now i reduce that to 80% rider, 19% fate, 1% others .

                              • Switching of with ignition key switches off every thing, but Engine kill switch switches off just the engine, not the electricals eg, brake lights, horn, indicators and in case of FI, DC bikes , fuel pump, H/L, pilot lamps etc
                                So id advice you to use it when its a temporary stop. Use the key if the stop is more than say 5 mins. Else Ur battery might suffer in the longrun

                                And these initial hiccups ur facing are mostly due to "Underestimation" of the bike's probable sales figure.
                                Somebody's going to be fired at Honda i assume :P
                                Hence the lack of spares and other parts and poor finish on the new bikes.
                                I dont think Honda would risk their own quality factor to create "false demands"
