broken

Hello everyone, A month ago I bought my moms TL 1000R with 25.000km /15.000 Miles on the clock. Due to her new Aprilia, she hadn't been driving the TLR in 2,5 years. We started it up, changed the oil and filter and off I went. I drove 1500 km relatively calm, 400 km trips each time. Everything...

Well, I had a incident with the TL tonight... What can I do about that??

Hi there,:) In my right, front fork (OEM) adjuster right next to the brake calliper won't turn at all :banghead . On the left front fork - it works good - clicks like new one. Other adjusters works works good. I've changed oil but this wasn't working before changing it so it isn't my foult...

Hi everyone, I am trying to remove the headlight, all four bolts have been removed and the headlight has been slid out. However it is still connected via the two wires going to the bulbs. There is a connector going into the headlight but I cannot seem to pull the connectors free from the...

So the story goes I bought a 00' TLR less than a month ago and it has not been that great of an experience so far. The bike had warped rotors and a rear cylinder exhaust leak along w/a few other annoyances I discovered after I bought it.:banghead I brought the bike to someone to replace the...

From another forum. Guy in Aus has a highway head-on and lives... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FiufKP5xDoU Happened last month down Bathurst way. The bike... The guy...

Hello everyone. I don't post much here but I do read a lot. I've had my 1998 tlr for 7 months now. I've been using it as my daily ride for the past 4 months. I bought it with 32000 miles and the only things I've replace so far were the fork seals and tires. Last night I adjust the chain 'cause...

My gearshift pedal broke when my bike fell over. It appears that the footpg has to be removed to replace. Can anyone explain to me how to remove the footpeg and replace the shift pedal (stock rearsets).

Well I was looking around this morning and noticed the Radiator is pulling down on the the front fairings which is causing my misalignment of it. After further inspection I find that the Upper tabs on the radiator under the neck have seperated from the Raditor. I cant really think of much other...

so my mother backed into my bike and sent it about 5 feet down the breezway. the radiator was shoved a couple inches over and broke off and or bent up the tabs that mount the rad to the bike. ive hunted around and the price of the used rads are extremely high. once i bend back the tabs.... what...

Heeeeeeeelp. The lower mounting bolt on a '99 TLS standard rotary shock has snapped off half way along (ie inside the shocker) so cannot remove the shock to ezi-out the broken bolt. The reach required to drill and extract from outside the frame is too far for standar:bangheadd tools. Anyone else...

so the hump on my tlr is broken. it is the tab towards the rear of the hump. does anybody have any ways to repair this?

I broke the small blue clip on the fuel line where it attached to the fuel tank. RonAyers only shows the actual fuel line for sale but I don't know if that will come with both parts of the quick connector. I would think it would, right? I can't connect a hose directly to it because the bend...

Have you ever forgotten about the (still recovering) fracture whilst doing a routine task ...... I swung out of bed this morning and went to stand up on both legs, forgetting my crutches, the dire warnings about what happens if I put weight on my broken ankle, etc., and was just at the point of...

Hey guys, i been cleaning the crap off the back rim, chain and sprocket today and noticed that one tooth is broken off about half way, no others are, to be honest i think the sprocket could do with changing but i need to know if its safe to ride as i use this bike to commute and cant afford a...

While working on the TLR last night, I ran across this. I have no idea how long it has been like that either. Is this a major concern? It is seperated right where it bolts to the frame. It doesn't really move, but I am afraid of it getting sucked in by the chain. What is it anyway? A chain guide...

If you have any that are rashed, broken or crashed, let me know.

bike was running great, and then started to hesitate pretty bad at low throttle. i could get it to act decent if i gave it a little gas, but of course that meant raising more and more speed. so finally i got pissed enough to gun it. to my dismay... thats what it didnt want to do. it died. here...

Mmmm, look what i found when PAPPS came around to mine to get his bike ready for MOT. We knew there were bits bent and broken, but not to this extent. Had to glue the back of the clocks, hot glue a small crack in the newish headlight unit, tried to plastic weald one of the panel lugs back in...

So... I'm riding home from work tonight, and noticed something was weird with the bike's handling - noticed the old pogo feeling from the rear that induces a weave in the handling when you're hiked over on the gas. Over every bump, it felt like I was riding a pogo stick. I took it easy to get...
