guys' and galls (GSrs or not) I would like to put a set of risers on my new bike, being almost as tall as Hudders, if I stand on the pegs I find myself leaning forward too much. from you learned crowd:
is it a good idea and what should I go...
A mate has recently bought an RD07 but wants larger foot pegs, I bought my stainless steel ones from someone in Poland & weren’t cheaper many moons ago. From memory I thought some pegs off another Honda fitted, maybe CRF 250/450, and from China...
When I got home I seen some dark spots on the rear wheel only on the drive shaft side of the wheel. On further investigation the 'black cap' had a thin covering of oil and only one of the cap screws, the back right next to the drain plug.

Recently I became aware that the front brake was not fully releasing, brake light remained on, and requires me to push the brake lever forward a milometer to fully release.

Just a quick note to relay my experience with my Tripmaster repair. My 2002-reg RD07A Tripmaster started to show "ghost" characters. See the image below. As well as the true LCD character displayed I was also seeing the remaining elements of the...

Ok nearly got the old girl ready for her MOT, after refurbing the calipers just need to reinstall and get a new front tyre.
The question is: I have a couple of cracks on the bottom corner of my near side wing mirror, is this an MOT fail?
I...

I have a 390 which I have used on my @ without a problem until now. When I put the Zumo on mains charge the green battery light gains a charge (lightening flash) BUT when I put on my @ & my Varadero the green battery light doesn’t change. The...
I picked up this, what I thought to be a drill size gauge, at a car boot sale recently -
Though, having a google about, it appears to be a wire size gauge as the cut-outs are similar in shape to this one on fleabay -
But I cannot work out...
I need some new valve seats putting in an XL600R - one of them is loose, a not unheard of problem with these engines. Has anyone had any ‘head work done, and if so can you recommend the place you used?
Just finished some work on the bike - oil and filter change, new chain and sprockets and replaced the pads on the rear brake. Bike is an '04 Transalp and something is amiss.
The problem is that the rear wheel is stiff to turn but put this down...
So my son threw his bike at the scenery while we were away in Scandinavia in June & July. Damage was limited to most of the sticky out bits - indicators, exhaust, 'bars etc etc and crucially the little flyscreen his Triumph speed triple is...
