    Front axle seized in - any ideas?

    I need to remove the front wheel so I got the usual kit out - 12mm and 22mm hex - loosened the Torx bolts & removed the left hex easily but cannot shift the axle at all. I have tried everything - WD40, blowtorch on the axle, breaker bar on the 22mm, whacking it wiv a big 'ammer from the left...

    Slip-on recommendations please

    The fishtails have got to go, so I am looking for some slip-ons to replace them, My bike is a bobber so something appropriate - about the only thing I can find is the Pro Race turnouts which look ok but I am not sure about the visible gap they leave. Anything better available? Not too loud but...

    Quick Shifter?

    A lot of bikes are bubbling with tech (BMW included) but the R18 is refreshingly simple while still giving you a few creature comforts like heated grips, abs, riding modes etc. Now I might get flamed when I say this, but the gearbox is not exactly the smoothest in the world :oops: so maybe a...

    Roctane Exhaust Conversion

    With my new (to me) Roctane , I had some Vance & Hines slip-ons included in the deal and I was intending to put them on and give the engine a better voice. However, when I got them out of the packaging, they are made for the Classic and will not fit the Roctane - the hangers are in the wrong...

    Roctane Screen Options?

    I am picking up my (new to me) 2023 Roctane this week and I think I will miss having some wind protection - been a while since I had a naked bike. So what screens look good on the Roctane?

    Retro fitting T Bars

    There are some 'fat' T handlebars on offer from Aliexpress and I am tempted to give them a try. I had these on my Harley V-Rod and loved them. Has anyone had any experience retrofitting bars?
