  1. Africa Twin
    My 1994 RD07A is intermittently missing a beat at idle? It does need some carb work and is idleing a little high. But every once in a while it seems to have a little hiccup. There is a mechanical “click” sound then a miss in the RPMs. It’s just for an instant, then returns to normal. This...

    I've just returned from a trip to the Alps and my chain has stretched a lot to the point it now needs replacing. I've kept it in pretty good shape since I got the bike in Feb and think it's the bike's second chain (despite only having 7k on the bike when I got it). I assume the stock chain...

    Hello. I purchased a Bagster tank cover for my 1990 RD04 XRV750 today. I am not familiar with Bagster and am writing to receive a recommendation for a Bagster tank bag that would fit nicely on the AT's Bagster tank cover. My AT has small bar risers. I usually use a tankbag for maps and...

    So I'm standing at a pedestrian crossing in Marseille today, a bloke on a @twin pulls up to the lights, he spots me wearing my @twin t-shirt and shouts across something along the lines of "les motos par excellence!!" While pointing at my shirt, he then revs the nuts of it and shoots off with the...
