    9J rims on springs?

    Evening, been looking at a lot of wheel options tonight, and now have it in my head that If I want RPF1s they have to be 9J's. I know I need 8mm spacers and longer hub bolts for caliper clearance on the front, and my rear arches are already rolled, but will this work with only lowering...

    Rear seat latch snapped

    Hey guys had the need to lower my rear seats to get my bike in the car, and noticed it's come from Japan with a snapped rear seat latch. Any ideas how I can get the seat down without it? How to replace it? I'm stuck with 1 half my seats up at the moment!

    Fuel Sender

    Does anyone know if the DC5 Fuel Sender is different from an EP3 one? They look pretty much the same from what I can see, and it would be a lot easier to get an affordable fuel sender from an ep3 being broken than a dc5. Cheers, Rob

    Private Reg Plate

    hey, my Teg is currently in the middle of the China Sea, but once it arrives I will be wanting to get a private plate for it, as I do not think a Y/51 plate does it justice, and will make it look older than it seems if you know what I mean. Now, I have been looking at options, and my initials...
