Yes I'll certainly look to do that great tip and cheap too a bit if vaseline.

Great pic mate glad ur using it for its intended purpose. Hitchcocks do a bigger screen, I'm looking to buy one for the summer to reduce the buffeting. I'd contact the dealer re the clocks after some complaining mine is in their workshop now having new ones. Mine got bad to the point the rev counter...

Hi matt I have nearly 6k on mine now I've had it a year. 24.5bhp doesn't sound great but I'm still smiling!

Yes definitely it's just a shame they take so long to resolve the issues whe it's a simple fix. Fingers crossed it should be sorted now most I know who have a himalayan have had no issues but a few like me have. A dodgy batch I guess

At present I'm still having issues with my himalayan. The clocks are badly misting to the point I can't see them and the pannier rails rusting.

Great Post mate, I lost my dad last summer he was a true legend too. Make the most of ur time with him sounds like an amazing dad. And dad's being dad's he will take it all in his stride the good with the bad. If it helps at any point I sell gentlemens traditional shaving sets, great for fathers day...

The nc is certainly unique, but it's genius, I know it's branded as boring but it sells in messes and does its job really well with Honda quality too. I'm looking to buy one next year and keep my himalayan too
