My n14 ran like a top right out of the box. I sold it as it was just too hot for me. Like Dave said, great protection-a bit too much for me. I need a bit more air. But a real nice bike nonetheless.
I’d leave it alone although it’s probably fine.
Off-topic and at the risk of highjacking thread: Huzo, why did you swap in wire wheels, and did you ever post a close-up of your custom latches on the leading edge of your factory bags? That's exactly what they (at least the '07s) need.
I built the wheels because I wanted them. They are not Griso wheels.
(Sorry, last high-jack post) I have always been amazed at the art of wheel-lacing. How you get the axial and lateral runout down to the microinches is like magic to me. And those aren't hardware-store-variety latches, they look solid. No leaks now?
I had an 08 - 2valve. Bought it in 2017 with only 10,000 miles on it so don't let the low mileage scare you off. Rode it from Florida to Nova Scotia Canada and back. Bike never missed a beat and always returned 48-52MPG. The comment about the fairing providing good weather protection is spot on. We had rain 18 of the 21 days on the trip. Adjusted the windshield and the rain basically went right over my helmet leaving me in a nice pocket of almost dry air. One of if not the best road bike I have ever owned. I only sold it after a shoulder injury and doctors recommendation to stop riding for awhile. If I didn't own a Breva 1200 Sport now I would definitely have another Norge.
Just approach the task gently and don’t build up enormous loads in one spot. If you picture what a tensioning spoke does as ti displaces the rim inwards and across, it starts to make a surprising amount of sense.It’s like wiping your ass, hard to describe in print, but relatively easy to do in practice. No the cases are as dry as a Mother in Law’s kiss.
