I'm increasingly using my TTR250 on the road (90% on and 10% off) and it's time to change to a more road biased tyre. There's loads written regarding off road tyres but far less about on road ones. From what I can make out the 'best' size seems to be 90/90 21 and 100/100 18 and maybe Pirelli Scorpions/Con...

Being Wiltshire based (lot...
Does anyone happen to know if the purple / blue colour can be removed from the wheel rims of the OE model ? How can it be done and what would it leave underneath ? Would it leave a nice clear alloy colour ? Or would it be easier to try and find a couple of secondhand wheels from a Y2K model ? Any other alternative...
Having got my head around Memory Map, I'm now finding the 3" screen on my MM device a bit small due to ageing eyesight So I'm looking for a bigger screen solution, ideally using the memory maps I've already bought as that was quite an investment.
