Have you had bike on logging roads? Will rocks get caught in hugger? Looks pretty close to tire.

If its a '99 then it should be a "955" not a "595". Triumph renamed from that year. I (still) have '99 build date May 1999 "955" (Tornado Red). Fabulous bikes :-)

@@traicys-dairy and the latter designation on the side fairings..."955.." Frame number and engine number will confirm also if the engine has the minor changes such as resolving 4th gear issues. (Workshop manual references specific engine number ranges). TuneECU can determine also what map is in the ECU. The frame should also have a date stamp on the sub bracket that seat attaches to. But def looks like the updated '99 year :-).

I have since upgraded to an Optimate which isn’t reliant on good old fashion British sunshine, plus the battery to Optimate lead connector can be used to plug in my heated Keis jacket and gloves so one lead does all.

It’s the Tomtom rider 550. Superb bit of kit! I use it with my Cardo Packtalk Bold. It seamlessly switches between radio-music and sat nav instructions. I now have a BMW R1200GSA with the Garmin Nav6. The Tomtom is by far the best and so much more intuitive. 👌

Update - Just spent 10mins trying to get the stock NC700X throttle grip off with the common air compressor method and no luck. I ended up cutting it off. Well in many situations including the clutch side grip the air compressor works great to remove grips. Also there is a easier way to remove grips if you own a air compressor simply shoot a burst of air under the grip while pulling them off. Works great to install grips as well with no moisture needed.

Your not going to use the old grips again, so doesn’t really matter if you have to cut them off. They are certainly put on to stay on it the factory. Best upgrade to any bike has to be heated grips. Why they don’t come as standard in the UK ! 🥴
@45eno 2 жыл бұрын
I just bought a NC700X after 4yrs of not riding(mainly due to safety concerns). Stupid leaders making poor decisions is leading to very high gas prices so I am gearing up for possible even higher prices. I know it will take a long while to make back the savings on gas but who knows how bad it can get and if we end up like what happened in the 70's with rationed gas. Just ordered the Oxfords Touring grips as they seem to be the closest in length and might not have to cut them down.

I do tend to ride very conservatively. Try changing gear earlier, anticipating corners and rolling off the throttle and ride in a higher gear. Not telling you how to ride of cause but it’s all the little things put together will pay dividends. Other NC owners I’ve spoken to are getting the same/similar mpg as myself. Having said that, 63mpg is really good for a 750cc bike!
