Hi Amanda, welcome to the forum. ;D

Hi Ben welcome to the site…. ;D

In terms of comfort, raising the bars on a 600 Revere
can be done but we’re still looking for a simple solution.

Check out the posts below from Sheekbiker and Andy….

Hi Amanda, Brian and Ben welcome to the NTV web site, it great, for finding out bits about your bikes etc, post some piccies, love seeing other NTVs

[motorbikemuso]

I've always thought that the Revere/NTV/Bros just looked "right" and quietly fancied one. This summer my Sachs b805 is off the road for engine work and my beautiful NTV650 came up for sale so I'm now a proud owner and hope to be hoovering along v soon.
It needs some tlc, as has been standing unused for a couple of years, but is suprisingly clean. The battery is on charge and I can hear it fizzing as I write. Exciting!

Welcome to the site..... ;D

If your NTV has been standing unused for a
couple of years, then I'd definitely recommend
that you buy a new battery.....The NTV can be
prone to electrical faults and a decent battery
helps to prevent this.....

Enjoy the bike......

hi there, not a newbie, but haven't signed in for a long long time.
I have been thinking lately that i wish I hadn't sold my auntie Vera (NTV) it was really clean the full Givi luggage and a flyscreen, and purred like a kitten. I sold it to buy an Africa Twin then sold that and bought a Varadero 1000 which is a fantastic bike but boy is it thirsty. Anyway dunno where the NTV is now, I sold it to an old fella in Ballymena, Co Antrim and haven't seen it since.

Welcome back Zxtrevr....
You could always buy another NTV I suppose.....
They're becoming more rare these days, but there are
still a few decent ones around.....

I'm thinking of buying second bike myself. But the
Varadero is too tall for me....(so is the Africa Twin).

Hello All,
Another newbie here.
I originally registered with the other proboard site but hey whilst your asking for intro's......
I've got a 93 NTV in the delightful green(hmm...) which is growing on me, very slowly. Bought it for it's history more than colour, 1 owner, right money,good history and low mileage. I've had one other NTV in the past and two Bros 650's which I regret selling because they really are a nice bit of kit abeit without shaft drive simplicity I know but handling, awesome. Anyway I live in the Warrington area. I'm looking for a Baglux tankcover and a centre stand at the moment to finish it off. Already had a kind offer for a centre stand (thanks gasman) so trying to find a baglux cover but not at 110 quid! Hope thats enough for now.
