If I understand correctly, you're in good shape. We will wait for when you sit on the Big and show where the KTM has to live.
Now I think - I wrote to adequately? Are you with us or not? I'm still the coach at a BIG boom, then to show a good result.
Good to see the thread is alive with some new members and beautiful photos. I wonder if you guys have seen DR tanks from inside? this is my "lucky" buy from e-bay. They were so full of rusty shit that I dumped the idea of electrolysis or acid rust removal and decided to cut the tanks open for sandblasting. Before: and after: The tanks are welded back together now by a friend of mine who's a pro welder and tested for leaks, everythings OK.
Mait, That's certainly getting to the root of the problem. Nice work. What's the purpose of the copper line at the bottom of the tank? Where does the other end go?
I'm a bit of prostration because my English is bad. But, only I do not like BIG,s motor power (Orgasm comes slowly)? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UZ1yG5v9TjA http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B-Otn5IWZmE&feature=related
Copper pipes serve as reserve fuel pickups and tanks are connected to each other through these pipes.
OK, I found those TA/AT bars... They are Motad Desert Bars, stainless. And they do cost a fortune on eBay http://cgi.ebay.de/Motad-V2A-Sturzbuegel-Desert-bar-Honda-XL-600-V-Transalp-/380085234482
Howzit gang I have been a little quiet and busy. Sold the yellow pig (R1150GS) and bought this as a new project... 1983 Yamaha XT600 Tenere. 65000km on the clock. Needs cosmetic work mostly - motor redone already. Headlight not working, not brake light, but I'm not too fuzzed yet. Cost half of my ex-DR did!
Gidday Edd, long time no hear, a rebuild of one of those yamaha,s is in Trailzone magazine try a google.
Need some advice from all the experts. Dr 750. When running on full throttle at around 130km/h the bike feels like starting to run out of petrol. Have free flow exhaust. standard airbox and filter. main jets 122.5. Can it be the air fuel mixture? Any advice where to look?
when it runs out do you mean like stuttering kinda then back on and then stutter and so on? is she hard to start when shes hot?
Not really stuttering but more like pull then nothing then pull and it carries on like that. Like playing with trottle open close open close. All in fairly short time. Start easy.
