Africa Twin farkles list

Stock suspension is pretty shite, impossible to get the correct sag and I'm a lightweight so this arrived today and k-tech are doing the front forks.

Shock supplied by rugged roads, Annette was really prompt and gave a discount.

Bought a rear seat of eBay to tie in with my Sargent. Much happier now. :JB





And before anyone says it....no, it’s not an oil leak from my bike.

It was an oil leak from my BMW.....:augie
 
@ Davy F, can i ask where you got the decals for the rear rack from ! im always catching my foot and marking it, the decals will cover the marks perfectly.

The dreaded eBay.....search for user:

labelbike and put in Africa twin beside that and that’ll bring up all you need.
 
Wheel Update
Just had word from Dobles that both My Son In Laws and my new Stainless Steel Spoked wheels are there and ready to be fitted Whoop Whoop unfortunately due to business commitments I cant get there till the 12th of next month but they are both booked in for then so cant wait
 
I'm putting together a list of parts to buy but I've just fitted a Cobrra 2 nemo chain oiler. Works very well and easy to use.
 
I changes the front organic pads to brembo sintered after i felt the front lacked stopping power, huge difference and 2 finger braking now.
