Yes, I have done the same on my older Rio. I can recommend the Camos brand from Road Pro. From top cupboard I went above cab lining panel & dropped down to rear view mirror. Enjoy your NuVenture.
Would have been nice to see how the two Clips on the lower side have been opend and removed, because you can hardly see and reach the locking pins to push them.
Arguably motorways would be far safer than many other roads because there is plenty of overtaking space, ie so impatient vehicles dont need to force you into the gutter.
Hi Andrew. I’m looking to remove my front gear cover for repowdercoating. I have a few questions of you don’t mind. Do I need to set me Todd when removing the cover or is it a simple task of removing? The Hanes manual suggests finding tdc and locking with a pin but I’m unsure whether it’s necessary for this job. I had a ok through your videos but there doesn’t seem to be a video of the removal? Cheers
Best bike in the world! Ive done over 30000 miles on two Visions over the past eight years. Carry it on the back of a motorhome. Not ideal on a motorway but perfectly doable. Biggest issue is hills though two up I find and if your on an A road with a long drag you can end up holding up the traffic a bit. Other than that we absolutely love ours. Handling is superb.
Thanks for the videos Andrew, I just got my bike and I think the starter motor is also struggling. Unfortunately i do not have the skills remove and service like you.
0 likes or comments! ? Can’t have that! I’m thinking about doing my own soon. I assume that the engine oil needs to be drained before the cover can be removed? What gasket material is used?
Excellent video glad I found your channel I have a Honda vision moped scooter 50cc and absolutely love them very good engine build by Honda so reliable yet sometimes they are so down graded like don’t buy a Chinese scooter maybe they are a bit fragile in areas but you can’t beat that engine. Thank for the video on such a beautiful and reliable machine.
Im more a afn of the K series bikes, the starters go the same way but a good clean of the commutator does wonders. Thanks for the video as I've only recently ventured into working on R bikes
Off Ebay. Very cheap but has proved durable and reliable. Battery lasts about 18 months. I have it held in place with velcro so I can remove it to adjust the time (summer and winter) and replace the battery.
Good video, and thanks for the explanation. Can you indicate the support model of the navigator, do you have to drill the widscreen? a cordial greeting
Thank you for the video, I have a vision 110, the horn has failed, and I need it to work for the next MOT. I have not seen a video, anywhere, where it shows how to get access to it.
Hi do you do a video on how to take apart the foot step where you're feet sit well you are riding & the inner leg shealds the part with the shopping hook thanks
Very informative, do you know wether these were sintered, semi-sintered or organic shoes? I'm trying to get both front and rear changed for sintered on mine as I want more stopping power.
How long do the brakes last before the shoes need replacing? I'm using a PCX to commute to work every day with a drum system on the rear wheel. I noticed the lever started getting close to the handlebar on harsh braking this week, so I've nipped up the adjustment screw.
It is more aerodynamic above say 30mph, so will go faster. The screen directs the air flow over and around the rider. Hence he is not getting too much bufferting, which would slow him down.
I know it sounds a little counter-intuitive that a sizeable screen would actually improve the top speed, but a screen smooths the airflow around the rider - as Mark R says.
Thank you Andrew for great informative videos. I've got a 2013 vision, had it from new and done 40,000 miles. Great little runaround. I change the oil every 1,000 miles. Still on the same drive belt. Inspected it recently and it's good for another 40,000 miles. Just done my front brake caliper seals for the first time, (October 22). A lot of harsh weather conditions here in the UK so have to keep on top of the usual maintenance. Ride it every day in all weathers. Would highly recommend this little machine.
Sorry to be slow replying. Having ridden to Slovenia and naviated with garmin satnav I can now advise that the speed is quite optimistic. An indicated 60 mph is actually closer to 55. So when the speedo indicated 70 mph at one point it would be closer to 63 . Not wise to stress a little engine in this way but, even so, it is a remarkable little scoot. On the Slovenia journey it averaged in excess of 140 mpg (I kept every fuel receipt and did a daily mileage log)
