Today I had to run a quick errand. Stopped the bike - see dripping under the bike. Initial thought was the sprocket seal. When I got home the clutch more or less stopped working as I drove up my street. More pissing of oil. Clutch fluid - not motor oil. Check the reservoir it is more or less...

Was going to use this as a template to try and make my own fibre glass/epoxy fuel tank like the OMEGA tanks, but then I got a set of Safari tanks for a good price so that project went out the window. It needs a bit of sanding and paint and it should be good to go. Not seeing any cracks or...

I have a CB400SF and I have carb issues off and on. Browsing the interwebs I spot this: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005001597570334.html You know - standard Chinese copy of someone else's product. The problem I have with the carb is a not a fixable problem - you can hack a fix together...

I did a SAS removal on my 990 earlier in the year. To expensive to have only 1 set of blanking plates CNC'ed so I had a couple made. Have already sold some of the kits and I have 3 sets left. Included is everything needed for the SAS removal on a KTM 990 (Sure the same plates will fit other...

Who in Cape town can true spoke wheels ???

carburetors <period> So this week my one bike decides to start to over fuel and flood - has been perfect for the last year/10 000km no issues. My other bike starts to have fuel starvation and if you run it at full throttle for to long a period it starts to sputter as if the float bowl is...

Where can I buy enameled copper wire to rewire a source/exciter coil with? I'm looking for 0.15mm and preferably on a spool - Communica sells in Cape Town but only in a loose roll of about 40m (I would prefer longer lengths as well). You just take that wire out of the plastic baggy and it turns...
