It's about time my 2010 DB6R with the 1100 DS motor received some attention regarding set up. It's never idled probably, runs so rich it makes your eyes water within 20 seconds if you stand close by i ... |

I'm still waiting for an answer from the supplier but I suspect the answer will be the same as in your case. Anyway, I am too impatient so I made my own fixing kit from some aluminium plate and a 12mm ... |

I bought myself a carbon seat cowl from conquest carbon and it's a very well made thing, but I can't for the life of me work out how to fit it. It's got three threaded inserts where the rubber bumpsto ... |

Really appreciate the quick response and sensible advice, I certainly didn't get a good feeling from the sales person but it hasn't put me off wanting one, just not that one.
What's the date of the ... |

What with old football injuries and frankly, age, I struggle after a ride on

Thanks, I was hoping to avoid that after a nasty experience shearing off a stud on my Gilera Nordwest but it looks like I'll have to do it. And yes, one slip joint did fail to slip and required a larg ... |

Like a few others I'm thinking of tidying up the rear end of the bike by having new link pipes made and using smaller end cans. I've taken the seat unit off and the silencers and link pipes but now I ... |
