Been a while since I was active on the forum. Selling my 2003 twinspark with heated grips, just over 100k km. It has rel new tires, a diff which gives a bit lower 1st. It's got a fuel management system that's adjustable, so you can choose your air fuel ratio target while cruising. Lowered pegs...

Well, the thread on the AT started this,for me. But I know Expat has been pointing out how crap OEM suspension is these days, that there has been a downward trend, possibly because mfg's can get away cause 90% of the market does not need proper suspension - mainly doing tarred road most of the...

The specs should have been released by now, and we all want to know the curb weight. anyone see anythign on the web?

I think someone previously asked for feedback. Is this bike worthy of all the hype on youtube reviews? With the trend towards lighter, but some not wanting to let go of power and touring ability, I think 1090 sales should be high in SA relatively speaking..but is that the case?

I have tried to inquire from groups, no luck, so simply emailed Honda SA. Their reply: Good day, This has reference to the email communication you sent through to Honda Motor Southern Africa regarding the African Twin Adventure Sport arrival. In light of the above, we have confirmed that the...

Now, someone has to ask.. I don't wear one, but I would like to know if some do. A friend came off a R1150GS and the tank is quite an obstruction if you are suddenly moving forward rapidly relative to the tank (in the event of hitting a motorvehicle). He said that it was all blue and purple..I...

with the current AT, upcoming BMW F850GS, Yamaha MT-07, KTM 790 - are they actually realizing that the European and american markets are more dual sport than originally thought?

My one plastic oem coupler is failing, so I need a set urgently. One option suggested is rectus type 21 couplers, parker brings them in. Problem with these specific ones is that it is single shut-off, and application is compressed air, not fuel so much so o-rings might perish relatively soon...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yu36vhL6j4c I have not seen anything about replacing the push rods, but it seems there is a new part for it, so the old part might be giving issues, making engine sound noisy. wonder what it costs

Hi guys, have you checked your injector resistance using a multimeter? It should be 15.95Ohm, very simple - remove connected to injector, put multimeter on setting 200Ohm, you will see the two metal prongs of the injector itself - test there, one of mine is spec, the other 16.4Ohm..might be an...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=92TfTQTmuq4&list=PLvKbarVtwhUue-xwasd2WUMrkK0CEm6yy&index=4 we replace every 30k-40k km, but this says you can replace every 80-100k km. or is it just a motorcycle thing, that it needs changing more often?

This.happens on and off. Not frequent, sometimes when I gun it a bit. The needle basically jumps around all over the place, even above 200km/h-not that i'm doing that. I thought this was the cable, but I don't see how that is possible. Maybe gears inside speedometer itself? I have heard of at...

I know it's 20W50 spec, but in winter you can easier start your engine cold on 10W40 me thinks. Should not be an issue in winter

So I have noticed from the start that the throttle cable tension on the left is more slack than on the right, simply by pushing on the cable where it connects to the throttle body pulley. Pushing the cable on the left has no effect on idling RPM, but on right it does. Somehow, I can still do TB...

https://forums.bmwmoa.org/showthread.php?79888-R1150RT-2nd-Load-Relay-for-Twin-Spark I like to fiddle around, some things I've done on my pig - 3.5bar fuel pressure reg (thanks Welsh), AF-XiED (fuel controller), rocket sprockets (google), and a R1100GS FD. Next up is matching the injectors if...

I fitted premium quality bosch pump, about two grand, but it still whines whe cold like old one used to. It's definitley the cold that does it, any similar experiece? Might also be time for new fuel filter

Hi, someone once told me about a company near PTA/Centurion that cleans injectors using an ultrasonic bath. Any details? Thanks

Hi, I need some extra buffeting protection. Any second hand wind deflectors out there?

So there's been one or two threads on how to run in a new engine based on this guy's advice: https://mototuneusa.com/break_in_secrets.htm I think as many have said that you'd rather trust the experts (engineers). Here a quick vid from a engineer on this matter. it applies to motorcycle engines...
