I can only hope someone else has had a similar condition and can help solve this puzzle. I had gotten my bike back from fixing the shift motor failure and went for another ride. Came home after 140 miles and parked the bike. 6 days later I prepared to go for another ride. Rolled the bike off...

On 9/14/19 I related a DCT problem on my 2016 NC700XD with 36,000 miles. It was stuck in 2nd gear and wouldn’t start. I finally got it back in neutral and functioning normally after lots of fiddling but my concern at that time was that I didn’t know for sure what had caused the problem and how...

I have a 2016 NC700XD with 36,000 miles. On 9/14/19 after arriving home from a 2 hour ride and a quick gasoline fill-up. I killed the engine to open the garage. Went back to restart it and it was stuck in 2nd gear and therefore wouldn’t start. Thanks to the efforts of others on this forum who...

Someone may have already commented on this, but I couldn't find a post dealing with reinstalling the axle on the 700X after wheel removal. I've now gone through 4 sets of tires and have been doing something the last two times that has made reinstalling the axle much easier. The axle...

I read many posts where people on the list installed the 2” bar risers from ROX. I didn’t want that much change so I bought 1” risers from Motowerk. Since I can’t find a post from anyone installing these I’ll show my installation of them on a 2016 NC700XD. Their instructions were for...

After installing the Seat Concepts foam and cover on the stock seat of my 2016 NC700XD I was pleased with the improved comfort and the angle of the seat, but it did raise the front of the seat enough (1/2”?) that I could tell lowering the bike would be an improvement for my 31” inseam. I...

I finally gave up on the stock seat. I tried the seat tongue over the loop and that really helped and convinced me that raising the front of the seat was part of the solution. Seat Concepts (SC) states that they built up the front and dished out the rear portion so I was pretty sure that was...

I Googled for a 2016 Service Manual and ordered what I thought was the correct manual. Turned out it was for 2012-2015 NC700X/XD. I know there are several places to get manuals but I'm posting this because I like to know if a supplier backs up their claims of refund or replacement to correct a...

After 83,000 miles on my 2010 BMW R1200R I made a change. Guess this is my 2nd last bike since I thought the BMW would be my last. I’ve been fortunate to get to ride longer than many others and I keep going to lighter, smaller, easier to handle bikes to deal with changes in age (almost 76) and...
