august

Hello all! I'm the proud yet frustrated owner of a Transalp xl650v6 which I brought new in August 2007. Ever since then I've had a love hate relationship with the bike especially when it comes to maintenance and repairs. Firstly let me admit that I am a sinner! Hailing originally from New...

hi, I've got a problem with my great condition, low milage (11,000) SLR 650 and hope that someone might be able to help. I bought it in August and everything has been working faultlessly until I went to start it last week and it sounded like the battery was going flat which was strange because...

Hello. The wife and I will be setting out for our first long distance trip on the bike. We originally planned on going to Ireland too, but have cut it down. We're going from Dover to Windsor tomorrow afternoon and then from Windsor to Lancaster on the 15th. On the 16th we'll be bumping around...

Withdrawn-change of plans

I was messing about with this about five years ago and then children started arriving and it's been in my way ever since. It's got to go and was hoping I could get some advice on its worth. I rebuilt everything and anything worn or could wear out I replaced. I certainly can't remember...

So my plan was to have a week off in August, buy a load of bits, strip the Dominator, get the frame resprayed and rebuild. Like most of my plans in life things have changed a little. Well maybe a lot. I still have a week off in August but am seriously lacking in funds to do the full refurb...

Hello. Any one have advice on trail riding in Wales. I have a few spare days in late August and would like to put my xr in my van and head off. I don't want to book a guide as I really am of the gentle pace and have heard story's of guides and groups going flat out. Just want to know my way...

As RD04 is the only variant of the XRV650/750 I have not owned and this was local it was worth a look and there was space in the garage as I sold a CX650ED.A 1992 with 25000 miles. Does anybody recognise it, I brought it from a guy near Ledbury that has had it since August 2014 and he brought...

Hi all! I figure you guys are best fit to deal with this query. Have had my 2010 XL700 Transalp for 3 years (or will have come August) and it is a beauty of a bike, even if I have had to sort out some issues. However, the standard Honda exhaust silencer gave up yesterday and now instead of...

Following on from the ebay/gumtree thread (the 4th most viewed thread ever on this forum)... does anyone else think 600 Transalp prices seem to be going up? I have noticed the same bikes crop up for sale within a year, at a higher price. Genuine price increase, or sellers trying it on? I...

I bought a 13 year old 650 Transalp last August 2015 and after initial niggles that you guys helped sort out it has performed perfectly. I took it to Spain in May and it did'nt miss a beat. It's going to get a big service in the next month but I am in two minds about the water hoses. It got very...
