Hello all.
I am planning to change my rims during winter probably to Excel ones. At the same time i am thinking to maybe change the front wheel maybe to an 19 inch. This because I use my bike mainly on twisty roads and i think an 19 inch would suit my purpose better. Has anybody tried this? How about the speedometer - how can i resolve the false km`s shown with a smaller front wheel?

Regards from Norway...

Hey Tim,

what happened? I wanted to place my next bid a few minutes ago and Ebay says you don't want to sell it anymore?
I thought the whole day about the height of my maximum bid (higher than my PM bid)!

Schelbi.

I completed also the right panel.
Tomorrow I should have the seat.
Then...paint.

Hello !

Does anyone know how many total XRV were produced?

Some fine work after gpmucci´s heavy metal

Check out my new seat for AT 1996. Project is not finished yet, but yes, this seat will fit the colour of bike

It is double brown leather custom seat with red quilting (to fit to red frame).

Not Spanish.... It's Portuguese. But if you care to browse, there's a section in English too.

LethPhaos · 09-24-2012, 03:20 AM

Ah, sorry, didn't mean to get that wrong. I'll check the english section, thanks :)

I would like to see the rest of the bike, if the colors match I bet it will look great.
