  • Tyre wear on the steering axle TGA

    Hello, have a problem with the running behaviour of the tyres of the steering axle on the TGA! The tyres run extremely inward, on the right side with very large wash-out on the half roll-off surface. In addition, the tyre develops “saw teeth” on each block with straight longitudinal profile, which means that the outer groove is higher than the adjacent inner groove, comparable to that sometimes found on the rear axle, just in the direction of travel inward! the axle leg bolt changed! Recently both wheel bearings were tested and if possible, the axle leg was checked to the left and if possible! A month ago steering gear and pump changed; on the track nothing has ever been changed and the vehicle has been lubricated by hand for a year! I am grateful for tips and information! Gruss Noseman

  • What tire size is that?

    Hello, I bought a braked car trailer and can’t do anything with the designations on the tires. On the tires it says: 185 R 14 C 102/100 R Tubeless. All Season. All weather and the width are clear. However, I don’t find a ratio of the height to the width, or even a speed index. Will you be smart from this? I have to order new tires for the trailer and can’t get any further here. Also, it would be interesting to know if I have a 100km/h registration with the tires. Thank you for your tips.

  • New entry with XV 535

    Hello friends! I think I am one of the elders i.d.Round (Bauj.1947) – but I wanted to feel it again – the Croiser feeling. I bought at Ebay 14 days ago in the instant purchase a Yamaha XV 535 Bauj. 96, 15000 km with all the accessories (Pre-deployed footrests – all imaginable leather bags ). The initial bargain turns out now as a babe. 1) The exhaust goes so loud that everyone turns around after me. At my age this is rather embarrassing to me. Can you get there. 2) The engine noise (or rather coming from gearbox) is very loud. So a friend of mine has promulgated my Yami and has also noticed that the noise is very unpleasant and not original. So clear text: When I start the engine and get on the road – nothing abnormal. But when driving. – the loudest when I drive downhill without gas there is a strong “singing” or as one might call this – and that is really unpleasant. m. What should I do? On to the factory town -. I bought this after all – would therefore not like to invest immediately – therefore the request – please report insider – would like to have joy at this machine

  • XJ 600 S Diversion Carburettor. Who has an idea?

    Hello guys, my old diversion makes bitches: if the engine is really warm, it doesn’t really take on gas anymore under about 3500 tours. If it’s cold or not quite warm, it runs perfectly. It says so: you drive e.g. with constant speed with 3000 tours, the engine still runs clean, when it turns up slowly then it starts to jerk. But if you tear up quickly, then it runs cleanly. I thought it might be on clinging discs. chieber, isn’t it? Is a uniform pressure carburettor? Or rather a membrane? But then why only with a warm engine? Would be grateful for a few answers…

  • RD200

    Since 2006 I am proud owner of an RD200 DX Bj. 1977 with Tüv. It is not in the best condition, however, the fun factor is enormous. In the vehicle license is under 5 “Frahrrad M.LB.” Does this mean that it is throttled? and if how? Does someone in the Berlin area know a secondary screwdriver, which can make me the part a little faster? This screwing is not my special area. Greeting BrunoRD200

  • Xj 750 Seca does not start

    Salve together, as mentioned above, the good piece does not start. New battery is inside, spark of ignition passes through all 4 candles, gasoline also comes through (witnesses wet). Laser attracts nicely through just want to jump off se se! Machine stood since May this year. Now I don’t know quite further, think already about expanding and cleaning the carburettor but don’t know quite how, is there somewhere a manual or a repair manual to it?! Do you have any idea what I still check or. I am grateful for every advice! Nice greeting BlackFlag

  • Clutch slips through

    Hello I have the problem with my Yamaha XJ 600 51J that if you give half the gas the coupling slips through. Now I have already looked around a bit in the internet and found out that it probably is either on the oil or on worn or glassy coverings or on the springs. Currently I use as oil 10W-50 motorcycle oil from castrol I have just removed the clutch discs and for me looks like the coating is not worn yet. Nevertheless I have The following questions now arise for me: 1. Does the oil fit 2. How do I recognize whether the covering is glassy (looks at everything relatively smooth except for the radial grooves) 3. How do I recognize whether the springs are in order? many thanks already for your help

  • BMW 1200 GS or KTM Adventure??

    Hello guys! I spun around a little bit the other day again. I brought my 1100 GS to the screwdriver to have it checked out after just under 100 tkm. Then the question shot through my head what I should do, if it doesn’t do it for some reason anymore. I of course looked at the 1200 GS. But somehow I also came to the 990 KTM Adventure (I like it quite well). Now my question: How would you like to escape iden and why? Looking forward to reading from you mfG Jens

  • Experiences with Porsche Center

    Hello together, in July 2010 I brought my Boxter BJ. 1987 , 265000 km to the Porschezentrum Inntal to the reperature. Cause was a sign (motor ) in the Armaturen Anzeigenfeld. When after 6 weeks !!!! the “damage” was not located in the yet, I said, please write together, what I am guilty so far. On that they replied to me 4850,– Euro !! But you still found garnix, no… they told me, we do not know, but we already have so much When I then switched on an expert and initiated a proof-proof procedure, the dispute with my boxer really started. The vehicle was sent to the Porsche Center in Munich….I wanted a neutral place….. not with me…not with the “Inntaler” The expert found that there was a crack at the oil filler, because of which the engine “pulls” at higher speeds false air, the control unit tries to compensate this and makes the half the error message “motor” visible in the display from the dashboard. Reperature costs of the stun 28,– Euro with installation approx. 280,– Euro. So, the vehicle back from Munich to the Inntaler (that was a big mistake) and both parties have 14 days time to steal. What does the PZ “Inntaler” He drives again with the boxer !!! Without expert!! Without order from the court !! Without my consent in a proof-securing procedure !!! …and claims…the fault lamp (Mo In this 2nd report, it was found that the control unit was opened….inside plugs have broken off and cold solder points have loosened. The best thing, however, is that in the time of the first 6 weeks, the Inntaler sent the control unit for verification to a specialist company that has not opened the control unit…. So now since you started… In the meantime 2 years have passed !! and PZ “Inntaler” still has mei n Car !!!

  • Long-term quality Cayenne Diesel

    Since I got my new Cayenne Diesel 4 weeks ago, I hear from some sides (……maybe envious!) that the Cayenne should not be very good in terms of long-term quality. Since I always drive my private cars at least 7 years or about 120,000 km, I am not crazy now because of this, but certainly my thoughts. In my X5 past I was spoiled – had actually never had any problems. Except normal service was actually nothing. n Feedback from Cay.Diesel drivers are interested in who already have many kilometers on the clock.
