Evening All,

I have removed my primary chain case cover and want to get to the backfire device? How do I get the bike in gear so i can undo rotor nut or do i have to put it all back together place in gear then take apart again?

My 99 has non-standard fenders, I've acquired a damaged rear one which has a dent near the front mounting hole. My body man is removing it and repairing other damage.

Evening all,

I have established my anti backfire device is slipping, request advice on how best to set this correctly? All help appreciated.

Regards

Phil

Hi,

I am refitting the forks / stanchions / sliders into the yokes, can anyone advise the best way to ensure they are not twisted.

The state of my knees and hips due to advancing age has made me decide to convert my Mk IIA to electric start. I assumed it would be a simple case of buying an Alton kit and installing it but it's turning out to be more complicated.
