Default Hi guys & girls, new to the forum

Hi everyone!

Have been lurking around for awhile and decided it was time to sign in.
Just picked up a 2002 929 RR, and hope to draw some good pointers and tips from the collected experience here
Bike is in okey condition, has a feve scratches and needs a bit of T.L.C but it revīs and runīs.
Have been rideing bikes my whole life, and did a feve long trips over the years. This summer I crossed Afrika on my old XT 600, and since Im currently stationed in Srilanka I might take the route trough India on the 929. If I have the time

cheers everyone! Hope to see you out there!

Tom.

Default Thanks guys!

Hi guys!

Thanks for the warm welcome
I will try to get some pics up soon, havenīt had time to take the bike for a proper ride yet.
Only comuteing back and forth to work, and with the traffic here itīs a slowmotion adrenaline filled ride every time. These guys donīt have traffic rules, they make them up as they go and the rush hour traffic is like nothing I have seen before
Bike runns great so far, had a feve electrical gremlins (someone in the bikes past decided that you donīt need to solder put a connector when you repair broken wires. You just tie a knot on the end and wrap the hole thing in tape) But with that sorted I now have lights that stay on even when crossing speed bumps or potholes!
There is a great deal of knowlege here that I have all ready found usefull.

See you guys!
