Anybody had any experience with any of the universal type silencers for 650 Transalp? Specific versions are extortionate but pattern universal seem one fifth of the price... Not interested in performance but a bit more bark for when filtering might be nice to avoid the SMIDSY syndrome... Regards

Hi all - about to pick up a 1989 bike but with no kickstart arm. The splined adaptor is still there and I hope someone could tell me if the other similar bikes have the same arm or not. It looks like the whole assy is unique to this bike? I see new pattern levers for £25 - 30 in the U.S. but...

I think the manual suggests oil every 2k miles and filter every 4k miles . Is it worth doing the filter every 2k also or is that really a waste of money ( not that it's a lot I know) Finally is it really worthy paying the extra for genuine honda filters or are the pattern ones from the likes of...
