My carbs are worn past the point of repair and the only option seems to be some secondhand carbs; have seen them on eBay Germany in the past but not for a while. Haven't posted here for years but thought it might be worth a try. Anyone got some RD03 carbs lurking in the back of the shed? Cheers

Hi All, I am looking for a long range tank for my XR400, Clarke preferred in Red, or Acerbis of other of course. Please PM me if you have anything lurking in your garages / sheds... Thanks, Steve.

Hi all I've been lurking in this forum for a few months, bought an xl700 transalp three weeks ago and enjoying it, living in Welshest Wales helps a lot, went for a spin up the Elan valley yesterday and had great fun despite appalling weather. Jon

I've been lurking here for a while and finally purchased an XL700 a couple of weeks ago. This is my first "big" bike and i'm absolutely loving it. Purchased from Murray's motorcycles in Dundee and would definitely recommend the place. I am in London so had to buy the bike without viewing and...

I've got a non standard stubby thing of an exhaust on my 600, after taking the heat wrap off I've realised the cause for popping. The can is lightly slipped on with more gaps around joint than pipe... also gaps at header? Where the two down pipes join. also even tho I've now packed the baffless...

Morning all, I've been lurking on the XRV forum overall for several years (I bought a CRM 250 mk III off one of the forum members many many moons ago!) Anyway... I have finally bitten the bullet and returned to riding after a 2 year gap. I now have a 2005 XL650V-5 Transalp sat in my garage. I...

Well the secondhand silencer that I bought from Austria has arrived and certainly doesn't look any worse than the photos made it look in the advert. Lets hope it fits........ So, what I need now is (I know, Iknow, want want want....) is the silencer protector. The cage type thing that bolys to...

I went to the NEC show today, and had a look at the design exercise that's been talked of as the new AT. I had to peer through the ersatz "mud", but I suspect Honda will need to do a lot of relocation of sensors, or provide a much larger "sumpguard" before the bike could be used off-road in...

Hi all....have been lurking on the forum for a while but thought I ought to say hi. Have taken a bit of a gamble and bought a 2000 XR400 that apparently has only done 2600 miles with some MOT certs to prove.Actually got the bike from a small dealer Frome and paid £1700 for it. Bike looks in...

Hi there, seams that I can't find the answer just by lurking the other posts, so I'll just ask straight away: should I go with this exchange? I now the front end is an easy job, but what about the rear shock? And another thing, the LC4 is (was) a supermoto, so I'm afraid it is too stiff...

Been lurking for a while, decided to join up. Here are some pics of my colonial spec XL600R I've been restoring. My user name is not my actual name, for those who get the reference, thumbs up.

hey folks I'm after a side stand switch for my rd04 1990. mine is broken and it seems to be a sealed unit so I can't get in there to fix. does anyone have one lurking? cheers

Thought i'd pop in and say hello rather than lurking. Currently have a TRX850 just for trackdays and a road going VFR400 NC30 which i was doing a few trackdays on and using for road trips. I like the TRX for trackdays cos it was cheap and i've had TRX's for years. Planning to out the VFR as i...

Hi all, Been lurking here for quite a while now and this site has been an absolute gem of information, but I have a bit of a nightmare on my hands: my engine has seized-up, looks like the front cylinder is to blame. I'm in the process of getting a quote for a rebore, but as a back-up plan I'm...
