slide

NOW SOLD The only reason this is for sale I am selling my Africa Twin RD07a and keeping my RD03. Having been able to try different seats this is has been the most comfortable by far. These are around £600 now to import from America or Europe and rarely come up for sale. The advantage of this...

I know there are aftermarket feet to enlarge the sidestand footprint, but my foot has disintegrated. Is there some kind off slide on option for a foot or do I nned to get it weelded?

Hi all. I’m building a scrambler / flat tracker from my FMX 650. My standard carb has two sets of electrical connections on it. What are these electrical connections for, what do they do??? I have a Keihen FCR flatslide carb to go on the bike when I’m finished the build but this carb doesn’t...

Just bought a 2006 FMX 650. Found this strange custom header in a box of spares that came with the bike. Anyone have any idea if they would fit or the performance etc. Also got a spare 650 engine and a Keihin 42mm flatslide carb ;-) The engine and carb will be sold later just want opinions if...

Hi, Does anyone have an XR250s metal tank for sale (around 1996)? its an MD30 and has the single bolt at the back of the tank to fix and two grooves on the inside of the tank that slide onto rubbers attached on the frame. Part number 17520KCZ000ZA If not - is there any other tank that fits -...

Where can I purchase two main needle jets (the long needles attached to the carb slide)? I know the part number but am unable to find anyone stocking this item. Addition to this post- I found that Rugged Roads stock the items (stocked as "Fuel Needles"..!!!) . However they have two part numbers...

I see you can buy new EXH PIPE JOINTS 18231MAK000--but how can you slide them off/on ?

Hi I have an rd7a (2003) and im in the process of a carb overhaul. Can't get the friggen needle out of the needle holder (black slide block that's attached to the diaphragm) The heinz manual say insert a 4mm screw, and then just pull. The screw goes in happy, but the needle holder seems...

Just wondering how long the retaining washer for the front sprocket should last? I had to replace mine quite soon after buying the bike because all the teeth had worn away allowing the front sprocket to slide along the spline and rub on the cover under deceleration. That was about 6,000 miles...

AT right hand side fork leg slider (outer tube) Number 17 in the pic. Mine is damaged inside from a worn bushing so if you have something please send PM with details

My needle jet arrived from the US of A today so I stripped the carb down and cleaned it. I installed the neeedle and jets but there is a problem. The slide will not close all the way down and I have had it apart but cant seem to suss out whats up. If you look at the following youtube video and...

Has anybody else fitted one of these? If so, did you have problems? I have! The slots In the regulator did not allow the studs to pass through. Today I was near their factory so I popped in and one of the chaps there widened the slots. Tonight I go to fit it and the studs now go through the...

I've now had my first short ride on the SLR and enjoyed it very much. It's so much lighter, narrower and more chuckable than the Strom. However, having EFI on my last 2 bikes has spoiled me a little. The SLR has a stumble just coming off idle which is a bit annoying. It feels as though it's a...

Howzit from South Africa! The bottom half of my chain slider has broken off, and finding body parts here is a bit of a task. Has anyone replaced theirs with an aftermarket model or another Honda model, and if so any advice? Thanks inmates!

Evening All I've just finished changing my chain and sprockets, I'd originally planned to use a split link as I don't have a chain tool but the one I got must have been a bad one as after 1 failed attempt to slide the clip on it lost its spring and stayed open. This means I have had to use the...

My exhaust is blowing where the rear header pipes enters the 2 into 1 bit :( There's a clamp that has rusted and broken, and under it a crumbling graphite gasket. Now obviously there's no point in having the gasket slipped onto a header piple with a bracket directly over it. The pipe and...

Hi folks, Anyone got a pair or single carb for Africa Twin 97 onwards? Or even a new or great condition throttle slide? Cheers.

Cheers, next question is slide diaphragms....noticed an ad on EBay for new ones for the RD04, had to be bonded in etc, I have one badly ripped on my RD07, are they available for RD07 or am I looking at whole new slide with built in diaphragm? £85 plus vat...ouch!
