That's not all bugging me. The more I think about this article, the more confused I get.

The AT only came out in 1989 in a 650 and a twin. HTH was the DR as a single a counter for that? Plus the DR was out in 1988. ?!?!?! OK, the TA was there in a 600 in 1987 but again, only as a twin.

I give up - day too long...

Yep, about the same price. Bit cheeky asking £50 for a used one then.

Rob, open a photobucket account. It's free, and all you need to do is upload pics to your album and then upload to the site using the pic icon.

robmoto · 04-14-2009, 07:50 AM

Open your photobucket page; pass the mouse cursor over the 'Direct Link' box and left-click; it's just below your pic (the link should now highlight in blue).

Get ADV back up; click the 'two mountains' (allow pics, if it asks); a box should appear in the top left of your screen; click in the box and select Paste (this links your selected pic from Photobucket to ADV).

You pic should now appear in the thread.

Have you all seen this type of ammo box? It's a bit smaller than standard.

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Vintage-Milita...1%7C240%3A1318

And this for cheap tank bags.

The S6 bag is usually plain green, the S10 is cammo.

Ausibatla,

It doesn't look like anyone has answered your question about the '94 rotor fitting the '88. I don't know from experience but I think it won't. Check this thread, I'm pretty sure it answers your questions (there was definitely a thread there that covered this, I think it's this one):

http://www.socweb.co.uk/forum/forum_...65435&KW=dr750

I checked the part numbers for the rotor on the fiche and they aren't the same.

Similar to mine and the ones locally http://www.packrat.co.za/CatDsplItem...s%20ammo%20box

Will upload pics just now...

DrBigEd · 04-14-2009, 10:43 AM

As promised. This is the left hand side. The box is mounted inside a strip alum bracket, which in turn is riveted on the inside of the soft pannier bracket on the other side from the zorst.

This is from the other side where you can see the alum bracket better. Also the tyre levers at the bottom. When I get the box I'll try some more pictures.

Oh, and this is me on the day my first bike in 12 years arrived. I already turfed up some of the lawn across the road...

Didn't even have a helmet yet. The old one shrunk somehow

Good pic Ed. I see you have a similar 'off-road' build to myself

Megamoto · 04-14-2009, 11:36 AM

Must be something to do with 'Big'..............

See........... the avatar was right.

That's why I make such big dust clouds when I land. I'm still playing cricket. Earlier in the season a wicketkeeper tried to block me. They picked him up halfway to the boundary...slightly confused.

I'm ashamed to admit I'm 27.25 stone. That's lotsa pounds...

I was 17.5 stone on the wing in my rugby playing days

That was 5 years before Jona Loma (or what was his name again

)

I have to loose weight this winter...
