Part Question

[Manfred]

Do pannier lids from the NY650 fit on an NT700? Couldn't find the NT650 on Partzilla.

What's a "NY650"? Partzilla is a USA firm, they will have parts for the "NT650" (and other bikes released stateside), NT650 is model nomenclature for the Hawk GT from around 1989 which I'm sure you didn't mean as there were no panniers.

There is a "NT650V", which is the 2nd generation Deauville. This was never released in the states and Partzilla won't list parts for it. We only got the 3rd generation Deauville AKA NT700V. Will lids from a 2nd gen fit a 3rd gen? I have no idea, but my gut says probably not.

 

[Manfred]

Typo on my part.

A quick trip over to eBay UK (they got both the NT650V and NT700V) tells me the answer to your question is a definite no. The lid shapes are completely different.

Here's a listing for a NT700V lid, left side.

CMSL had a new, white, large lid for $200 delivered. When it gets here, I plan to paint it and the right side both black.

Here's what the damage looks like.

Encounter with a pickup?

Nope - hit a very rough expansion joint on a bridge. 'Bout knocked me loose from the handlebars.

So you took a strong pothole-like bump and the lid busted? You're not carrying concrete pavers or something heavy in that saddlebag liner?

I had a big lid explode, but that was from the bike slamming down hard on its side

Then again, I've ran the interstates across Texas numerous times and I've encountered violent jolts like you experienced. Especially I-20 out towards Abilene, horrendous road conditions. I remember thinking the one that shocked my spine wasn't a pothole, more a ravine.

I had about 9 pounds of stuff in that liner - a pillow was on the outer side, against the lid. It was an expansion joint on a bridge in Arkansas on a state highway. I avoid interstates.

Must have been the expansion joint in the Jersey-barriers then...

Well, doesn't sound like state routes are doing you any favors either.
