Had one of those prior to the KLR. Was a English import so had no rev counter and the pillion pegs were bolted to the swingarm, other than that was pretty much the same. Nice bike, but it was terrible off road, it either went straight when I wanted to turn or the back would come round too far. Just totally random. Spent a lot of time in ditches. I could not believe how good the KLR was off road after spending a couple of years on the XL, thats how bad it was.
I mentioned vegetables once, but I think I got away with it...........

went for a 10min open road on the seal to see how she went and she felt a little better even without the screen on there yet, the only down side was when i stood up and looked down on the fairing she's crooked as fockall ready for some play
but at least at around 100-120 it had no noticeble affect, gotta take it off to make another light bracket as the beam aint right yet so when shes of i'll try to straighten it a little.
i liked the look and feel when on the bike.... mmmmmmmmm dreams of dakar

Tip of the day for adjusting valve clearances:
When doing front (exhaust valves) you need to go past TDC allowing the piston to drop approx 2cm before adjusting. Doing exhaust valves at TDC gives a false reading. Intake valves are to be set at TDC.
NB: This is an XR specific method
Anyone got a spare speedo cable I could buy from them??

Hi guys, I need your help.
When I bought my BRP, I checked the valve clearances and they were ok. Now, a few thousand kms later, I decided to check them again. They seem a bit tight so I adjusted them.
Unfortunately, after adjusting them I have the "loose valve clatter". I checked the adjustement a few times to make sure it's ok, but the valves still tick.
The service manual sais: make sure the auto decompressor is not activated. I have no ideea how to do that. I made sure I didn't turn the engine backwards but more than that I don't know how to check the state of the auto-decompressor.
Is there anything I'm missing? Is there any trick on the BRPs?
