Hi, All;
I've had my NT700 for about 6 months now and I'm having an interesting problem. I'm short, 5'8" with a 29" inseam. The bike that I traded for my NT was a Kawasaki Voyager, a 950 pound touring bike. I had no problem getting it on to and off of the centerstand. I did not anticipate any problems with the NT, which weighs about half of what the Voyager did. One of the first things I did when I got the NT home was put it up on it's centerstand so I could check tire pressures, fluids, & etc. After finishing that job, I hopped on the NT, and rocked it forward to get it off the centerstand. Nothing happened. I tride rocking harder, then throwing all of my weight into it. No joy. When the NT is on its centerstand, and I am on it, my feet barely touch the ground, and I cannot get any traction to push the bike forward to get it down. Anyone that could offer advice or possible solutions is invited, yea, Implored to please reply!
