I just fitted a bullet brake which is a push activate non return valve on the front brakes which allows the front brake to be set while parked. Pulling the brake lever disconnects it so its idiot...

    Getting More Ground clearance

    Well since fitting the sidecar I have had to be a little more cautious on uneven ground. Especially potholes as rapid breaking prior to obstacle would cause the beast to dive and reducing ground clearance even more. The fitted bash plate has a few decent gouges in it. The outfit has a total of...

    Ramair on Un-modified R3R 2013

    I will be installing the Ramair filter shortly . I will eventually look at exhaust options but not in the immediate future. Do I need to load a modified tune or will the 12 minute tune be enough.

    Looking for A good Speed Nagging Device

    So I have managed to clock up a few speed camera infringements. While I am happy to support the Victorian taxpayer by donating to the consolidated revenue, I would prefer not to. I am looking for ideas that would warn me when I am exceeding the posted speed limit for those times when the...

    Fuel Gauge Reading Zero Fixed

    I recently replaced the indicator relay with a self cancelling one. When patching into the rear brake wire I disconnected the ecu while the ignition was still on. This caused a ecu fault light on the dash which disappeared after 3 cold - hot cycles. The fuel level and distance to empty...
