    Brand New Rider

    Afternoon,

    I have been lurking for a while but I thought I would introduce myself. I have just passed my DAS and have bought an old transalp for my first bike.

    So far I have not had much luck, I dropped the bike on its side so its sitting doing nothing waiting for a new clutch lever to arrive.

    I plan to do a few mods to make it a better greenlane machine, but so far I am really liking the bike.

    Expect many really silly posts regarding the bike, bear with me, I am new.

    Cheers

    Pie

    Hello and welcome to the forum.
    Do not worry yourself about silly questions just worry about the silly answers.
    YOU ONLY NEED TWO TOOLS IN LIFE - WD-40 AND DUCT TAPE. IF IT DOESN'T MOVE AND SHOULD, USE THE WD-40. IF IT SHOULDN'T MOVE AND DOES, USE THE DUCT TAPE
