Hi all. Just picked up a FMX 650 that’s had a replacement engine. It came with the old engine that’s got a shagged piston but apart from that it’s in good shape. I’m looking to buy a new piston and rebuild the old engine. My question is can I use the same diameter 100mm piston from the XR650L...

On the 600 transalp it says on the rev counter X 1000/min - 1 I.e. To the power of minus 1 Why does it say that? Surely it should just say x 1000/min? Ie when the needle is at 4, that means the engine is doing 4000 revs per minute If you raise the revs or the minutes to the power of...

Does anyone know of a "jack up kit" to raise the height of a Varadero XL1000 ? Thanks

Hi all, Just purchased a 2001 Africa Twin for a guy who had it professionally lowered as he was very short. I am very tall and want to put the rear suspension back to it original height or even raise it slightly. Do anyone have a standard rear 'U' shaped link or know where I can buy an...

Do any of you gentlemen know of any rear shocks that will fit my dommie flat tracker. I need to raise the rear end by about two inches. I am using the one from my RD02 but it sits way too low. Any suggestions about alternative shocks or hightening kits? :thumbup:

Hi everyone, from a newbie, that sounds ridiculous considering l'm 67, (how about old newbie) anyway, l've just sold my NX 650, and bought a 650 TA, mainly because the TA will be virtually vibration free compared to the dominator, but l need to raise the seat height, I'm 6' 5'', so if anyone has...

Item ordered, admin please delete / deal as required (unsure how myself). Hi Having just dropped me bike I'm looking for a clutch lever bracket. I'm not completely out of options as Honda dealer wants £28 which isn't a lot but I just thought I'd give someone a chance to raise some beer...

OK, I have figure out what the height differance between new front end and old one is. just by pushing forks through clamps and getting faily rough idea i think the forksa are 1.5 inch longer. So if front is 1.5 taller how much do i raise the rear? Seen as shock is angled and is on a...

Hello I have a '97 TA600 with a centrestand fitted. It is the type that has 2 u-bends for feet and you can raise from either side of the bike. It has only one spring fitted which allows the stand to sag and scrape the road sometimes when cornering. I guess there should be 2 springs? Also its a...
