    So after 31,500 miles the headlight bulb dip filament gave up on my 650 the first thing that's ever gone wrong with the bike :D I found out when I switched on the ignition thirty five miles away from home in the pitch black :( and so the beam adjuster came in really handy as it let me lower the...

    Just wondering if this is normal on a 650 Alp - there seems to be a serial / engine / VIN number party visible on the clocks - Not sure what or why it’s like that you’d think the entire number should be seen????
  3. Transalp
    I fancy a change and I am thinking of putting my 2009/10 XL700VA Transalp up for sale. It's in good condition and regularly maintained. Lastbig service was undertaken by the dealer and re-set the valve clearances. It's got 67,000+ on the clocks. Has the OEM Honda topbox on and is in the...

    Hi there As mentioned a few months ago in the XR segment of this forum, I am offering up first dibs on my XR400 to you guys. As I now have osteo arthritis in my right foot, kickstarting has lost its appeal somewhat, mostly as it sometimes hurts, anyway. It is a 1996, P reg. Mileage unknown...

    My brother is selling his Africa Twin RD07 1998 which has done 54,888 kms or 34,300 miles. He bought it off a mate in France so has kilometre clocks but it has been reregistered in the UK. It has been very well maintained and has things like the head bearings and swing arm bearings stripped...

    CRF1000L Windscreens & turbulence. Scepticism, humility and possibly poor spelling. I thought I'd briefly share my journey to achieving the holy grail of a wind and turbulance free ride. Relatively, of course. So, standard screen was, to be frank, rubbish for me. Wind right in the face...

  8. Africa Twin
    Thought I'd post some thoughts on the bike after the first 1,000miles or so. Inevitable comparisons to other bike, all things are relative! All comments are for on road - not been brave enough for off road yet, but a couple of green lanes identified...! 1) Engine. The stats are deceptive, it...

  13. Transalp
    Had to retire, for now, the 600. Got myself a very nice condition 650. Couple of issues i've seen so far : The facia on the clocks is very difficult to take off, I need to change the indicator relay for LED one, not easy to get it off. I've taken all the screws that I can see out, have even...

  16. Africa Twin
    Morning all, It's been a while... life and the bike are now both back on track following some major changes in the last 12 months, including a move to Dartmoor... Bike is ready for an MOT save for one very strange niggle... Engine off. Headlights OFF. Indicators work perfectly... Engine off...

    Hi all, been using the xrv website’s invaluable technical information for over a year now to help me rebuild a much neglected RD07A I found on someones drive way. To cut a long story short I had to leave work a few years ago to become my partners full time carer, as much as I enjoy what I now do...

    Hi guys, collected another RD07 AT for my mate, I think it's been a UK bike, as I can trace it from the Irish documents, emigrated to Poland, then Ireland and to Scotland via Northen Ireland. At some point the clocks have been changed and are now white kmh, he's not bothered a bout the mileage...
