NT700V Owners manual download?

[Bud]

I've been looking for quite a while to try to find some place where I can download an owners manual for the NT700V but can't find a place to do. If any of you know of someplace I can do this please let me know. I'd like to read it 3 or 4 times and then save it and refer back to it every now and then. Thanks much for your help.

Keep the shinny side up. Ride safe.

Bud

Hello Bud,
I found it here:

Edit by rfoshaug: here's the link again:
Manual on Honda's Australian web site

There are several differences in the US version NT than the "rest of the world" version NT that manual covers. For a few examples we do not get HISS, Hazard (four way flashers), the passing light switch, a Document Bag or a tool kit....and I'm sure there are others differences in it.... But it sure makes for some interesting reading.

I do not know where you can obtain a legal copy, not a scanned bootleg, of the US version Owners Manual on-line. If anyone has a link for a legal copy, such as the one above linked to a Honda website, please feel free to post it. But please do not post any links to bootleg copies as they will be deleted.

I deleted the link. Since anything produced by honda has a copyright the reproduciton or distribution is not a lawful action.

Unless someone informs me otherwise, that's the policy, sorry.

My bike bought used did not come with a manual. I am ordering a hard copy from a Honda internet dealer. I also downloaded a PDF copy from a company online. It cost me $6.99. This is a legal copy. It's really nice because it's searchable.

I got the hardcopy from Amazon and paid 29.99. The part number is 31MEWA00. Search around and you can probably find a better deal.

With the prices being so low I see no reason to download an illegal copy. It is odd that Honda doesn't supply one for us. I got both my Honda Pilot manual and my Ford F150 manual free from the company websites. I wonder why Honda doesn't do that for the motorcycles?

 

[Mellow]

In fact, I just went back and looked at the Honda MPE website where that document is located. It's an official Honda website - that is NOT a bootlegged document. I think you should re-instate the link.

If that's the case then I'm fine with it.

I don't have the link so I'll let rfoshaug edit/re-add it to his post.

Thanks!

One thing I won't allow is file-sharing sites. Sorry, I won't budge on that one.

An official Honda site is something completely different.

I see my link was deleted. I am sorry if I violated a forum rule. I never would have bought from a company if i knew they weren't on the up and up. I actually did research. I hate to think I've supported an illegal company. I have to ask how do you know they are not legal? It's hard to tell any more. If they aren't legal than we should report them. BUT again how do we KNOW they are illegal?

Here is the link to the official (legal) manual on Honda Australia website: http://www.hondampe.com.au/docs/owning_a_honda/owners_manuals/motorcycles/NT700V-VA 32MEWA10 OM 2010 E.pdf

Edit: Regarding how to tell if it is legal if the link you post is not to a Honda website it is probably bootleg...

Sorry, it is hard to tell these days. It had the 'look' of typical file-sharing sites I've seen in the past that distribute music/software/etc data.

When I get a chance I'll look at that particular site more but until them I prefer to be safe and remove it and then do some research to see if it's legit. I know you intended nothing but to be helpful. I'm just protecting myself and the site from any possible actions due to the content on the site - I know there are law that don't hold ME responsible for that but I still watch it closely.

If it is legit then I'm sorry and I'll let you know you can add the link back.

Thanks for posting this link, I browsed through it and found th page 95 that lists all of the required tools that are in the NOT INCLUDED TOOL KIT

While we are at it are not the manuals available on the RedRider Web site if you are a member?

Well color me stupid... LOL Yes the owners manual is available from http://www.ahm-ownerlink.com

This I am certain is a legal website!!! I was already a member. If your not you should be. It cost nothing and it's a handy place to keep tabs on your Honda vehicles. I added both my bike and our Honda Pilot.

Here is the direct link to the manual... http://www.ahm-ownerlink.com/assets/OWNERLINK/Model/own_man/powersports/motorcycle/2010/10_NT700V_A.pdf

I believe owners manuals are. In the past, you could get access to pdf files on the honda site if you had a Honda Riders Club membership, it was a benefit of that membership. However, I do believe it was solely for the use of those members WHILE they had an active membership.

For the record, Thank You, Joe. I think we all appreciate the work that you do, and I agree with the basic stance that bootleg information will eventually be more trouble than its worth. I don't think that I could do the amount of work that you do and not get completely turned around, so, thanks.

What makes you think I'm not turned around... I sometimes resemble Linda Blair.

When I got my bike in 2010, There was a coupon in the owner's manual for a Shop Manual put out by Helm. Helm puts out manuals for everything on this planet. I have a Helm Manual for my 1995 Chevy Suburban with a 6.5 Turbo Diesel. The manuals are not too expensive and in light of a $10,000 motorcycle, quite inexpensive.

Oh, sorry, didn't think about copyright issues. Guess I just thought that the NT700V manual was published into the public domain by Honda as it is on the official Australian Honda website. In my view, there was no reproduction or distribution, only a link to Honda's own distribution of it.

However, I do of course fully respect the forum's reluctancy for such links to such material as a mistake here could lead to copyright issues. Anyways, the link is not really needed - if anyone wants to have a look at the manual, just google "nt700v manual" and you'll find it easy peasy at the Australian Honda MPE website.

I apologize for that delete, you were correct and okay to post it. I did not recognize the site and just wanted to be safe. The link was reposted above.

 

[rfoshaug]

No problem, Mellow - I've re-inserted the link in my original post.

Thanks for the link. It's easier to carry an iPad than books. I don't know if I'm lazy or smart....
