I've just bought a 2012 XL700VA and will no doubt have loads of questions - which hopefully some you can answer. Just moved on from 'old Triumphs' so am looking for reliability and a considerable reduction in maintenance !! Here's hoping.

I am currently drafting auxiliary aluminum fuel tanks for my RD07. On the left side, the mosfet regulator can easily be moved inside the toolbox under the seat. What about the coolant reservoir? Has anyone found a different location? It can't be moved to where the RD03 coolant tank sits because...

Hello peeps, look, there's no easy way to say this, this is in effect a begging letter,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, I'm trying to raise some money for Bone Cancer Research in memory of my nephew Alex. Alex never got to ride a bike, he died shortly before his 15th birthday, but his Mum and Dad made sure he...

Happy new year to all of you. Right. I would like an AFrica twin please. Limited funds unfortunately got two daughters at university! Would like a clean tidy low mileage one if possible. DOnt know how realistic that is but I've got a week to try and sort a new bike as I have moved jobs. If...

Have searched allot for the answer to this but can't find any so I'm asking you guys now. I have installed HID:s on my AT, and the trip meter resets after a few minutes. Moved the ballast as far away as the cables allow it but still same problem. How have you guys that fitted HID sorted it out?

Anyone got a tomtom rider v2 active (i.e. plug a charging cable into the mount itself) mount they want to sell? I took mine off an old bike I sold and then moved house and can't find the bl00dy thing!

The paper element air filter in my 650 TA is on its last legs. I moved from the UK to Aus a few years ago, so I get to trailride in deserts occaisionally, which means that cleaning the airfilter can be a daily task as they get really clogged on the very dry dusty days. The ideal would be one...

In Denial? (And I'm not talking about what the Muslim that fell in to a big river said!) At the beginning of the week, the front coil spring on my VW Golf snaps, with the bottom of the spring hanging out of the cup on the strut, and a sharp end millimetres away from the tyre. I hadn't gone...
