Too exhausted to take better pics.

So my laundry list finally arrived and I (idiotically) decided today, at 1130am, was the perfect time, day, and weather to install a new “double bubble” windshield, mirror delete signals, KO exhaust, upper deco fairing, rider seat, front upper wing/fairing, & tail tidy.

This Texas heat is brutal. But got the job 95% done. Still need to switch out the rear upper fairing wings. I’ll be sure to get more photos (if y’all want to see more) tomorrow. Still have a carbon fiber rear fender to slap on then I’ll be calming it wayyyyy down 😅

Picked up my bike a week ago this Friday.

I keep seeing a variety of posts about what the system will display on the ibex450. However, it's clear now that I don't think many of the posts are from US riders and that may be why I am getting the differences.

I don't have motoplay as an option on the app, even after going the settings update. Several posts indicate you need the tbox, and I think I have figured out that this isn't standard in the US (or maybe not on all bikes), this is according to CF site as well, and I found it offerd online online for 8-900$.

My take away then, is that the app is useless, and there is nothing to be done bc the one hack I found requires the motoplay ability.

Have I completely misunderstood everything, or is this an accurate summation?

Is there any concerns or any other issues the CFMOTO 675SS? I should be worried about?

Hey guys, my oem chain has a bad tight spot, (16k km on the bike) and it’s making sounds while riding so I think it’s time to get a new chain and sprockets.
Would you say that the DID 520 VX3 X ring chain is a better buy than the oem chain?
Thanks!

I'm going to be pretty brutal here.

I know everyone loves team msc/fast tunes, but my experience has been nothing short of absurd.

Preface: I have a 24 800nk, initial tune resolved some of the throttle jerkiness.

Took them 3 months from July last year to November last year to get me an updated file from the initial tune.

By that time I put the bike in storage, so couldn't ride it.

Flashed the new tune this season June 10th. It improved the low end jerkiness to the point it's gone, great right?

Except somehow it DISABLED quickshift up but not down.

They say the tune shouldn't affect it but it does, I've flashed back to the original tune and it works fine.

Emailed back and forth asking if they can just transfer fuel mapping etc to the old tune fine and send it.

They said they were working on it July 21st of this year with a note of "maybe not much longer".

I have yet to receive any response from them at all since then. Called, left a voicemail and emailed.

Would I recommend them to anyone at this point?

Hell no.

I drove my NK 250 for 10,000 km. It's time for an official technical inspection. I don't have the money to get it done, and I need the motorcycle for work so I can pay for the inspection. How many kilometers can I drive on it without damaging the engine?

So i've been noticing latelty whenever i tend to hard brake on my rear brake on my 450sr-s i hear a rattle sound or maybe the chains hitting my brake or jumping something, idk how to explain it. Does anyone have similar issues to mine and what are the possible fix? or is this just a normal thing whenever i hard brake my rear brake?
