I finally got round to remembering to photograph some of the recent new installations. I'd been out enjoying it all so much that i seemed to always forget . The main direction was to be gaining some height upon the bars to help out my 6' 1" standing position. In the process of doing so, to also gain a...

I've realised that i never WANT to have to spend out, so guess this is a question of do i need??? I always kind of felt that it would be of use to me at high speed on the f...

I'm going to kick off a new topic on cheap and sometimes even free mods . They can be useful or simply just for aesthetics. In fact just about anything goes, as long as you feel that what you have done either improves the bike or rider, and that whatever materials might be needed, can be easily and cheaply f...

Anyone tried an Eastern Beaver Circuit Solution such as the one below? By having the one fuse block, several electrical add ons like phone/ sat nav, additional lights ect, will hook up to the busy battery terminals via only one connection, saving space. This is a US product and i'm particularly intre...

Off to the Pyrenees this summer to do a coast to coast route over the mountains. Carrying luggage can be a pain, done it enough with sports bikes and seen plenty of dropped kit, bungies break and straps dangling in wheels Given a fair chunk is off road I've gone for the Wolfman pannier frames which I saw on...

Hi I'm considering getting a larger tank for my trip to the Pyrenees, has any one got one of the IMS 3 gallon tanks installed? What range does it give you before and after the reserve light comes on. Thanks

Hi All, The OE plastic case saver is rubbish and would not be of any use should the chain break or derail. Does anyone know where I can get a steel case saver in the uk? I've seen the Sandman ones and they look well made and stylish. Is there a uk supplier or should I buy direct from USA? Not done that befor...

I have read a few articles on how to lower the WRR using the adjustment at the bottom of the shock. The last guide (see below) suggest that you don't have to undo the lower shock mount. Is that because you can spin the shock body? Lowering the seat heightThe first mod I usually do is to lower the seat height...

Bought a Ricochet Bash Plate, excellent fit a 2 second job. Heavy gauge aluminium plate, has taken some big rocks without issue, hardly a mark on the thing Only ciricism is that it could go higher to protect the water pump hose, but will get some spiral guard to sort that. Money well spent in my view

I like these bars (used to be known as Dakar Highs) and have a new pair that I would like to fit but, before I do, does anyone know if the standard cables are long enough? Brian

I am looking for an easy win here so that I can get my GPS mounted and running on the WRR. Where is the simplest and closest point to the bars in the wiring to get a constant live feed please? Brian
