Re: The RD400 drag bike

That might be fun, do you have to pre-book or just turn up?

Re: Air filter

It's worth a try. What's the cost of the filter you found versus a complete replacement?
Also, is there any information about the particulate size it will filter out?

Re: Supersprox Stealth 42T rear sprocket

For what it's worth supersprox are always my choice of sprockets, for the Storm, SP2 and now I have one in my Aprilia.
They last well and are light.
You can get an anodised aluminium sprocket that's lighter but they don't last long.

Doesn't hurt that they look good, too.

Re: vtr project

Good spot. No mention of mileage, and too much damage to be put back on the road economically. Might make a reasonable track bike, though.
But not at the asking price.

Re: what have you done to your "bike" today

Today I ordered the tools, oil and seals I need for the Ohlins fork rebuild on my Aprilia. Although they're semi-automatic electronic forks the rebuild looks to be the same as normal mechanical ones apart from unplugging the loom connector at the fork cap. They're not nitrogen-filled, so at least th...

Re: fuel warning light

No, it doesn't light up unless the fuel level is low.
Just strap a spare can if fuel on the back and ride til it stops, then you'll know.

Re: what have you done to your "bike" today

Just put another year's MOT on the Tuono. It's the first time I've been out on it since November, due to an inner ear and balance problem. Luckily, today it's not too bad, and I could ride fairly normally. Only fairly normally because the new Sidi boots were on their first outing and will need a few...

Re: Help with paint decision and exhaust swap

Hi, and welcome- nice bike. Re the decals, you can simply warm with a hairdryer and peel them, the adhesive should come off with the sticker but if not use a road tar cleaner to shift it. Check on an unobtrusive section to make sure it doesn't damage it or dull the paint. Re the cans, it looks prett...

Re: wire colour identification

My guess is that it shorts the side stand switch.
You can easily check; with the side stand down, start the bike, pull in the clutch, put it in gear and the motor should stop.
