Heading to London for a few days and I convinced the wife that we need to get to the Ace Café. Its a bit out of the way and about 45 mins on the tube from where we are staying. Is it worth it or just another tourist trap and t-shirt-buying-souvenir stand or truly a "do not miss it" kinda...

Bit the bullet and ordered a British Customs FEK. My plan to do my own was thwarted by my day job taking me out of town pretty much all summer and real life getting in the way of doing anything from scratch. I've heard so many mixed reviews on turn signals from BC that I am not going to order...

Maybe I am dense but is this screw size 5x0.8x20 (mm), per the Bike Bandit part description? I have unfortunately crossthreaded it when replacing my speedo cable. I have a buddy who can do a tap for me but I obviously need the right size tap. All he has is SAE taps so I need to get a metric...

Life long dream realized. Getting the hell out of IT and doing something I love. Working with wildlife and being in the snow. I wont promote the new company here but lets just say that I (my company that is) provides a service that no other company in the world does. An upclose and intimate...

Got your attention didn't I?? Well, its actually the Thruxton getting undressed and dressed. :brit_tit: Took the plunge and glad I did! BC Airbox Removal kit, number plates and Progressive Suspension shocks (412) and ProgSusp front springs. Much better ride, sound and overall look. I...

need some help from the NBR guru crowd. My speedo and odo stopped working yesterday. I got home thinking it might just be loose, gave the cable a turn or two or three at the cup and tried it again but no dice. I took the cable off and the pin, see pic, pretty much fell out into my hand. I...

Thought I would share a learned and valuable lesson today as it all went down about an hr ago. I suspect some of you will chide me for being dumb. Dont clean your tires with off the shelf Tire Cleaner (of the AmorAll sort). It makes for a slippery and ineffective contact patch for your...

I'm about to pull the trigger on a set of Progressive Suspension 412 series rear shocks for my Thux10. I will also be replacing the front springs with prog. susp. springs. The shocks are slightly shorter thatn stock, 1/4" (I think). Anyone have experience with the 412 series (positive or...

Haven't done it before, so when my next oil change is due I have a new alt cover and gasket ready to go. Any words of advice if you're someone who has done this before? thnx in advance P.S. GO BRUINS

any thoughts on reastaurants or the best Tri dealer to get a cool South African Triumph dealer t-shirt? ( I am a bit of a whore for t-shirts)....

A friend of mine is in the clip (she skates for the "Death Track Dolls"). Yes, it's a Harley but still a cool video. http://www.cyclecanadaweb.com/multimedia/videos/hd/345/

F'ugly but what do i know.... (Source: Cycle Canada website) Spy shots of an all-new Triumph touring machine have recently emerged online. UK publication motorcyclenews.com posted photos last week of a shaft driven large displacement motorcycle it claims is the Triumph Trophy reborn. Though...

I have a set of Napolean branded bar-end mirrors, that are not my OEM mirrors on my 2010 Thruxton. They are a replacement set after a guy kocked one off. I asked the dealer for stock mirrors and they sent me Napolean but they simply don't fit and are night and day from the Ken-Sean mirrors...

kinda cool http://www.purdue.edu/newsroom/students/2010/100929CairoBike.html

So not 15 minutes ago the guys who are pruning a massive tree in my backyard tell me that the opened their van door, after moving it next to my bike and managed to ''scrape'' my bike. He said he will pay for everything, banged up mirror, scraped front brake lever, scraped engine cover, scraped...

Took the plunge and my Preds should be showing up this week. Can't wait... While searching that "other" site I see a lot of mixed opinions on whether or not hi-temp silicone or similar should be applied to the header and then cans themselves for the install. What do you guys think, or what...

Any of you guys/gals deal with Stainless Ride? Thinking about getting a pair of "Factory Seconds" EPCOs from them.

A Mods and Rockers 2010 ride took place last weekend in Toronto, Ontario. Good music, great food and stories abound. I 'borrowed' a few pictures (thanks Mike T) of the Saturday ride to the pub.

So.... I drive home from work and notice a film of oil and some 'pooling', if I can call it that, at the base of my (front) cam cover, seems to be mostly on the left hand side. The bike only has 3000 km on it so I dont think it can be deteriorated gaskets or anything like that. Does anyone...

Getting a new lid. Bell Custom 500 Wondering what the masses think (not sure why I care, or if i even do) just curious i guess...

...BSA Not sure of the year (74?) or model. Gee, I wonder where I got the brit bike bug?

So here, for the public's benefit, is a step-by-step approach to the act of diving which, when implemented correctly, can give someone a convincing edge on any pitch, from the fields in Europe to your local house league. Just don't expect to be invited to any post-game celebrations any time...

So....my noggin is the shape of a watermelon and consequently my 'new' Davida helmet has a few pressure points that I want to soften. The inside core is just styrofoam, albiet quite compressed. I am thinking, llike a surfboard, I can shape the foam core a bit with just some sandpaper. Anyone...
