    Dark side insurance Q's

    Okay, i am really wanting to dark side, but our service workshop raised the question if the bike would still be insured in the case of a claim. My thought is it has a roadworthy tyre on, so all good. Any experiences and outcomes are welcome.

    Aussie knowledge and recommendations please,

    It’s time for a new rear tyre, and I would like to try dark side. Then I will know one way or the other. Questions, what size tyre and in Aus, what brand? Also if there is a size or brand/model to stay away from. I am not looking for something hard and long lasting, must have grip. I am...

    Triumph branded watches, any thought or experiences?

    I need a new, or old I suppose, watch. I have the opportunity to purchase a new Triumph branded watch at a discount. These are just over $600 AUD retail. That’s more than I have ever spent on a watch, but if it’s good value I am tempted. They look pretty good too. Are they any good?

    Handlebar ideas

When riding after about 45 mins my hands go a little numb, thumb and pinky first, then most of my fingers. I am thinking of trying some alternative bars but am not sure what to look for. I realize ones...

    Final drive - bevel box breather removal

    Would someone be able to tell how to remove and clean the breather at the top of the rear drive / bevel box? It is something I have to check to try and figure out what is going on and causing an oil leak.

    Leaky Final Drive

    Well, the saga continues. Had the seal replaced and all has been, sealed! Until yesterday, under the bike checking out the starter motor and what is involved in that, and the rear drive is leaking again. Not badly, yet. I am back to the shop that did the work but I don't think they...

    Final drive oil leak

    Noticed a small patch at the rear of the bike this morning and discovered that oil has leaked at the final drive onto the rear wheel rim, around the hub where it goes into the rear drive. Before pulling it to pieces, what can I expect when I remove the rear wheel? Is there a final seal that...

    ABS rear brakes, light off, light on again

    just had the rear brake pads replaced, when the tyre was changed. Now when riding the ABS light will go off when I start but a little down the road will come on again. Usually stays on but a couple of times has gone off for a while. All looks in place and the shop has said they will look next...

    New tyres fitting, should it be difficult?

    I went to get new tyres fitted on the weekend. Before I arrived the bloke said the rear is a pain, bad rim design with no well for the tyre bead to drop in to for fitting the tyre. Anyway, on arrival there was more warning that the tyre may rip, and sure enough it did! So back on went the old...

    Recommend a tyre place in Melbourne.

    I am about to replace my tyres, called the service place I usually use but he can not help? I am in Melbourne, can anyone recommend where to get tyres fitted. I am after standard tyres, but maybe will give the cobras a go. Pablo maybe, the Triumph dealer?
