Hi, mt AT (Catweasel's) has barkbusters and they limit the steering. They hit the fairing before end of the normal range of movement and I think they are why my steering lock won't engage. Any tips before I start grinding bits away? Cheers, Stewart.

Well I've been in Europe 6 months now and yet to get a bike. I've been looking for an RD 04 since I have been here as I have an RD03 stateside already and wanted something different. Everything seems to be to far away or I just don't get to it in time coupled with the fact I was looking for a...

I've got a 2000 + on road trip coming up soon and just noticed the perishing on my tyres is worse than just a bit on the side wall. They need replacing ASAP. Now here's the quandry. I can get tyres and have em fitted in days but I don;t want to make a rush decision. For most of the year...

Havent seen another thread (so if there is one please direct me to it!!!). Anyone up for a Trail ride on Saturday 7th? Ive done the Dales only once before and there are some cracking lanes. Unfortunately a lot have been closed over the years so there may be a bit of road work involved to form a...

What are the options for off-road biased tyres for my XL600? 90/90 - 21" front 130/80 - 17" rear (which seems to be the limiting factor) Conti TKC80's Pirelli MT21's Both of which I've used before on my AT and XT250 respectively. What else is out there? I'm favouring TKC's at the moment.

Last year we did this:- http://www.xrv.org.uk/forums/ride-reports-pictures/81163-pyrenees-aragon-navarra-2012-a.html This thread has pictures that have not loaded but some have. I have placed a ride report over on ABR and all the pictures are in that thread:-...

What's the weather (and more importantly the ground) like just now? I'm coming down on Thursday to do the BMW off road skills doo dah and I'm just hoping it's not knee deep in show. While snow is fun it's a bit limiting in what you can actually do off road.

Had a nice ride out today just around local, makes me realise I need to get rid of my stock front mudguard as this is currently the biggest limiting factor on the bike! Enjoy. . Then cleaned and put to bed ;)

Anyone up for a blast through the North Wales trails on either the 23rd (Sat) or 24th (Sun) October? Starting at Betws-y-Coed in North Wales this time and working East towards Llangollen area. For those that have come out with me before, theres a few new tracks to try around Betws-y-Coed...

Hi everyone, My first post just to say Hi and let you know why I've joined a UK forum based on the other side of the world. I'm totally intrigued by the Africa Twin and would love to own one. Living in Canada and the U.S. they're as rare as hens teeth but from what I've read here seem to be...

Here's a suggestion for people considering filming their biking. I recently bought this Sanyo Xacti C65 waterproof digital video camera. It costs as little as about £150. It uses SD cards, so I fitted an 8gb card. It can be hand held but has a standard tripod mount on the bottom, so I bought...

Howdy folks, On the @ and previous bikes ive owned, there is a weight limit of 10kg that can be carried on the rear rack. I guess this is Hondas way of limiting any claims :rolleyes: (plus keeping the bike stable of course) How much weight do you think the rear rack could REALLY take - (im...
