It would ordinarily be a bit premature to change the air filter element, but my recent trip had me concerned. I rode on a number of dirt roads through a bunch of fine dust and I suspected that my filt...

OK - here's what I'm trying to emulate - quite rare and I don't even know if these were exported to the US, but in 1980 a small run of these bikes were produced. They have a pig ugly exhaust, 21 inch...

  "Level one, museum-like condition, plus extras" This was how the condition of my 1990 GB500 was described by the previous owner in the Ebay listing. This would turn out to be false. It's been...

Yesterday my dad drove me to his friend nate's shop. Nate is the guy we will have paint my fenders and gas tank. We left the tank and fenders with him to sand blast and my dad will pick them up from h...

Concerned it would be too easy to damage the frame. I cut into the lower inner race with a Dremel, cracked it with a small cold chisel and used it to drive the new one on. There was no problem using...

Guess who dropped their special ultra light weight pressed metal brake leaver pivot nut down inside the fairing today ? I shall see what Mr Bembo wants for a replacement, and the nut may still be ther...

I have been umming and erring on whether I should do this or not. The only KTM dealer who I trust to do this just quoted me between £800-£1000 (about 950-1150 euros) so I have decided to take the matt...
