If you ride the NT700V from a sports motorcycle, you will indeed notice the difference the most. This is a good-natured average touring motorcycle where you are not easily surprised in unsafe situations. The NT700 Deauville is a touring motorcycle for whom touring equals relaxation of driving and a highway, you should not want to be there, then you should have the ST Pan, which are highway touring motorcycles. The NT700 feels best on the rural 2-lane roads that you choose to take a nice drive and enjoy the views and surroundings. The NT700 does not tempt you into unsafe maneuvers because it does not have the configuration to make that possible. It is not a sports bike, but a nice touring bike for those who consider speed and hurried handling undesirable.
Great job and a lovely bike. I am considering one as a second bike that my father would also use. Thanks for sjaring this and drop by, you may like my content.
I think this is a great all year commuter for me in the UK where currently I'm slowly destroying my poor Blackbird. You answered all the things I wanted to know especially windscreen up and centre stand. Thank you 👍
I LOVE your cowboy boots, Howler!! I've LOVED cowboy boots since I was little! I have a broken-in brown pair with a more pointed toe and stitching on the toe. I wear mine with loose jeans, jerseys and even shorts!! I LOVE the stitching on the toe of cowboy boots. I think it makes them stand out more. I LOVE how they make me look taller. I'm 5'10" and I wear size 12. Cowboy boots need their own paid holiday!! :) :) I feel the SAME way you do about cowboy boots! 👍😎😊👊 I want a black pair next, maybe with the metal toe taps on them!! Can't wait!!
... Wind buffeting!?? The screen has 6 settings and lifts quite high, great for touring.But have to adjust manually! I have a black 09 model , very light compared to my FJR 1300 07. Only issue I have is , the rear end looks like a dog's butt!
1. How do u adjust the manual cct? I mean it's manual so do u just wind the cct to same length as oem ones when put in? 2. Adjust With engine on and running on rear stand in neutral or 1st gear? 3. Adjust Wit engine off? If so how u know when to stop? Please reply asap as I'm about to do this since I gotta take the throttle body out. Let us know or if anyone experts care to reply. Tyia.
No sir not at all. There are other videos of this job being done as wel. I would watch a few different ones to give you a really good understanding of how this should be done. Explained from multiple points of view.
Just happened onto this video, and what the young man describes is exactly what I experienced on another boxer -- a 1973 BMW R75/5. The dry, single-plate clutch grabbed between gears, and I stalled at many, many stop signs trying to engage first. The torque pull right was immense at low speed. And tuning those carbs was impossible. The good? Oh my, smooth as silk, and fast. Very fast. I still remember an encounter back in the mid 70's with a Harley on I-75 south of Detroit. Cruising @ 75 mph the hog pulled up next to me, and gunned the engine to get my attention. We both floored it. Around 120 mph my bike began to vibrate a touch. So, I looked out the side mirror to see a massive billow of black smoke coming out of the Harley which was quickly disappearing from sight. God, I love that BMW.
just oneside panel and 3 bolts for RH engine mount is all that you need to remove, easy to get at, from the side poss move the large wiring loom a bit and use long allen key.
Hi guys, Got a question... it took me a while though to get the right tension but eventually did it, no more strange noise engine seems to be running smoothly, fuel and consumption is down... But there is an issue though! When pushing it temperature goes up a little below the red line, fan kicks in big time and engine stops! Someone told me that it will take up to a week for the engine to adjust to the cam chain’s change, to simply let it cool off a little and within a week time check the oil filter and change the oil again and the temperature issue should go away? Is that true?
You can cange a CCT without removing a whole throtle bodies/ or even whole airbox if you have a small hands, but easy job - remove a airbox- BTW buing a new Honda CCT is stupid because it brake after 15k miles , best option is APE or aliexpress copy of manual tensioner- 10$ and it is bulletproof
I just farted while judging the homemade chutney competition at our local church fete. The waft actually caused the skirt on my frock to flutter. The fart sounded like someone ripping a blanket in a tunnel and the stench reminds me of a bucket of rotting cockerels. Mrs Janet Blythe from 42 Crompton Street Chigwell won the competition, by the way.
I can’t get the faciking throttle body’s off the engine, I feel like I might fuck it up if I continue, sucks it was such a simple fix up until this point and you don’t really show what your doing at that point in the video, guess I need a mechanic FML, thanx for the vid tho man almost helped
Hahaha! I was kinda wondering what you normally ride, cause thats not a heavy bike! Dont be scared to use your brakes, it a whole lot better on the bike then using the transmission and engine to slow down! Nice bikes though, reliable and comfy as hell.
I test road a '96 three days ago. I experienced the same things you mentioned (My prior bikes were sport bikes.). I did decide to buy it. Getting used to the size will probably take a few hours: looking forward to the spring.
