Hi guys and girls. Just want to point out. The suspension pats of a motorcycle like this dog bones should never be made out of mild steel as in this video! High tensile hardened steel. 6mm think is used from factory for a reason.

If we’re going to get any negative effects from the shorter trail you have created it would likely be a front end wobble at speed, no more mad 80mph wheelies for you young man!

I changed mye links 2 years ago to raise the back 4-5 cms. Best mod I've done. Now contemplating new set of Kineo wheels. 19 front 17 rear. That should level out what I've done to the rear. Expensive though...

Made a big difference to my NC , 1 of the best addons i did.

When I did mine (to lift the seat hight) I just cut out a bit and welded them back together, but of course, you then don`t have the original.

Appreciate very much your videos. Moved from Canada to Spain with my NC750X (2017) and finding a good mechanic to be a challenge. Started doing the work myself based on your videos and my increased confidence that I can do the job.

i done mine still not perfect for me i must sat on 100 bikes in show room not one was perfect its bloody stressing i stand 5.5

Very simple solutions that work well. Nice vid.👍 I have same centre stand issue with my Honda Crosstourer, my solution was to put a 15mm thick bit of wood under the back wheel and this now makes it very easy get up on the stand.

Please correct if I’m wrong, but what you have done by shortening the links has resulted in lifting the bike frame upwards relative to the rear wheel on the road effectively increasing foot peg ground clearance. How much has it lifted the bike please. Thks

How much ground clearance did you gain? That seems to be a weak area of this ADV. If you're starting off with only 5 inches, when you are carrying two riders and bags full you will be practically dragging the ground.

I like your workshop videos, they are interesting to watch!

Very useful step by step video... Lovely well equipped garage (shed as you call it). 👍

great job mate, relatively straight forward. Thanks again for what you share

Sir, you are amazing

Great job! I am planning to change my dog bones as well, since when I ride passenger, i scratch exhaust ( fzs1000) on road bumps, sharp hill corners etc.

Brilliant job as always, well presented.

I was looking forward to seeing you shape the dogbone.

I was looking forward to this. It was very satisfying.

Clever mods make the bike your own 😁☘️😃☘️ from northern Ireland great video ☘️

I just learned about center stands for the NC750X. My X has none..
