Hi guys and thanks for adding me to the group, I am the proud owner of a XR250R 1987 , I am having problems with the silencer , what else will fit on here as originals are not an option I think , thanks in advance. Karl From England

I'm boxing my rare originals which are becoming brittle and putting on some fibre glass jobbers. I fancy going with the Rothmans Honda theme. Question is... Shall I go the whole hog and go with the narrow rally style or standard?

Hi Folks, Originally bought from barftone last year as an introductory bike for trying out trail riding, i've barely been out on it. I did swap the plastics back to the originals before gong on a couple of rides, so all the plastics, bar the rear fender and hand guards are scratch free...

I've been restoring these Dommies for a while now and the biggest pain in the arse is the Aluminium engine brackets. They're all rotten, perished and degraded now. And from Honda DISCONTINUED ! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH :( The ones Honda made are crap anyway. Low grade aluminium...

Hi, I am in the middle of refurbing a 1998 Transalp and I am struggling to find the collars for the suspension. I can source the bearings and dust covers but not the collars. The existing ones are totally knackered so no choice but to renew. Honda originals I get get but at a price, any...

Has anyone fitted BF Goodrich hoses to their twin? I've just bought a set of new brake calipers for my bike. Looking at the back hose, where the hose is clamped into the metal ferrule (caliper end) there is a bulge where fluid is getting out from the center hose, so I need to replace it. I...

Hi all, I've lurked here since passing my CBT and lusted after an AT whilst making broom broom noises on my CBF125 ever since. Well now I have a full licence and own a really well looked after 22k 1993 RD07 *punches the air*. The thing is, it's the toscana green version which resembles a 90's...

It's a 1998 but not registered till '99 purple 600. Mileage is 53,860 currently on SORN with no MOT. Needs a bit of a tidy but has engine bars, luggage bars at the back and Scottoiler. I have had it for 8 years and had a few bits done to it in that time with bills to show what has been done...

Hi all. I am trying to work out if it is possible to fit barkbuster type hand guards to my AT 650 1988. I did buy some cheap items off ebay, began to fit them by cutting off the end of the left hand side grip to discover that inside the handlebars is a ball of iron about an inch and a half in...

Hi, Since buying my 2002 AT (8,000 miles) I have had problems with brake judder. At first I automatically thought my brake discs were warped and hence bought a new set of OE discs and pads, and fitted them with out dialing them out. A few years later the judder became noticeable again and as I...

I've searched the forum but can't find a definitive answer. I'm after some hand guards for my RD03. I'd like the perch mounted ones as handlebar space is a bit tight. I've always thought the originals look a bit clunky, but more critically even David Silver want £71 plus delivery for a pair. Can...

I have an original Honda Pannier Rack and Panniers fitted to the TA when I bought it, they are ok but not particularly big. I also have a set of Givi 41 Monokey Panniers and I just wondered if anyone had replaced the originals with a Givi Pannier Rack and if so, what were the advantages and...

Hi All, Just installed flush mounted indicators, having removed the floppy originals. New bulbs are 3w each, so 6w per side. When activating switch, the relay buzzes for a few seconds before 'catching up' and then indicators work fine. Was wondering if the relay is ohm or watt sensitive and I...
