It's 3% taller than stock - the ABS has to tolerate a certain amount of speed differences between front and rear tires due to tire wear anyway. The worse case scenario would be a front tire worn down to the cords, and a brand new 150/70 on the back - you might have a wheel speed differential of...

Hi everyone I've just ordered a taller set of handlebars for my nc700sa. The bars will be about 2" higher, 2" wider, and 3" further pulled back compared to the stock bars, which is probably beyond what the stock cables and wires can handle - sounds like they will tolerate a 2" rise only. I know...

Hey everyone, I was wondering if, with a little community collaboration, we could figure out the spec difference between an Australian spec bike and a US spec bike? I quite like the look of the front turn signals being used as running lights, this is something the Australian models don't have...

I'm working on a nc700 that has had wrong (green, silicated) coolant in there for most of its life. The cooling system internals are now coated with a white powdery substance similar to chalk. At its worst, white flakes were visible circulating in the radiator, I got those out after a few...

I'm overhauling the cooling system, including replacing the water pump seals. I can't get the pump far enough out of the engine to remove the mounting bolts, because it just hits the frame. Has anyone had any success with this job before? And does anyone have the torque values for the water...

I found this while cross referencing oil filters. What looks to be a 2014-16 model nc750 with a factory police upfit. Dual batteries, touring screen, massive crash bars, different switchgear, and so on. I wonder how they fill with fuel? It seems to be a factory version, because the model code...

Hey everyone, just a word of warning. I've just replaced the front brake pads on my bike. They were vesrah VD172 sintered pads. I ran them down to 10% like I normally do with pads, and when I removed them, I was shocked to find that the friction material was buckling, cracked, and a section had...

So I've gone down the rabbit hole researching brakes, and found a graph that others might find interesting. One manufacturer of brake pads is called newfren, and because our front calipers are used in loads of different bikes and scooters, they make our pads (fd0385) in six different compounds...

My rotors are quite worn, grooved, and have a lip on them. I'm in the research phase for replacing them and thought I would share my findings and see what others have done. Nobody wants or is able to machine them. I contacted a bunch of bike, car, brake, and machine shops. Being a weird shape...

Hey guys, just for something different, here's the NC doing a couple of laps at the local track. The bike is mostly stock apart from 17/38t sprockets and michelin road 5 tyres.

Hi everyone I just wanted to share some info about the clutch system on my 2012 nc700sa. I have run the CTX cable for about 12,000 km, but in the process of diagnosing some clutch issues, I am reverting to the stock cable. If you are thinking of converting to the CTX cable, it does work, but it...

Hello all, long time lurker but first time posting. I would like some advice from members who have replaced their clutch plates. Current situation: I have a manual 700S training bike that has used up all the clutch cable freeplay adjustment - both at the lever and on the clutch arm. This is...
