    How heavy are a pair of forks?

    Hi. I need to send a pair of complete front forks minus the top and bottom yolks via courier. Does anyone know what their combined weight is?

    A new starting issue on me

    Yup. Load tested and all good. Symptoms have changed ??? Now, when I turn the key all is good, the dash loads up. Then when I pull the clutch in, the bike starts straight up without touching the starter button! I am thinking it is more likely the right hand switch gear at fault as it all...

    A new starting issue on me

    Hadn't ridden the bike in a while. Charged the battery. At first when I turned the key the lights came on but the dash was dead. Flicked the kill switch repeatedly and the dash started to work. Pulled in the clutch lever and the dash reset with a loud click from the clutch switch. Removed the...

    Will not turn over,help needed please

    Hi all! OK Here is a goodun. I used to have the old cold start issue. I have installed the secondary relay to the starter relay and it improved the spin of the starter motor, consequently the bike started alot easier right down to 0 degrees. I have installed the headlight relays and...

    Instruments Dead.....Bike runs fine...What gives?

    Just a thought I have had the same problem with just the tacho and it turned out to be the multi pin connecter block from the clocks. Just one of the tiny pins in the block had snapped off inside the female terminal. If the inside of the connecter block has a green tinge to it, it is a fair...

    I got the best bike in the World

    But don't we all. Wanted one since it first came out and worked hard to get it. I am an active member of many forums regarding "the bike" and various other themes. Always looking for ideas on improving perfection. I am a darksider and have been for about 3 years. Love it and will never change...

    Battery again

    I had a similar problem after heavy rain. Engine management light and oil light on with out the ignition key. I have even had the analogue clock hands spinning backwards like a windmill. I have even had this idiot light problem when riding in torrential rain. It is water getting where it...

    I've looked but I can't find - popping under the saddle!

    My bike used to spit back through the intakes once in a while but it was more of a bang and you could feel it through your spine then white smoke drifted up from under the saddle. Scary the first couple of times but entertaining now. Saying that, it has not done it since I swapped the rotten...

    Starting problems when its cold...

    I have gone down the bigger battery route and it has also made no difference. I have a new theory. It sounds like the starter motor is sluggish on start up. Has anyone had the starter motor off and checked for pinched bearings when it is cold? If I had a spare starter I would place it outside in...

    Clutch slip

    I was quoted about £240 before vat and that was just for the friction plates and steel plates between. The springs and bolts are extra. Add on a lube change, casing gasket, coolant change, 'O' rings for the water pump and chromed feed tube on the front of the engine, finally the washers...
