Raptor Chapter

Anyone tried an Aprilia Tuono shock, more choice on ebay and generally newer than falco shocks. My shock just dumped it's damping fluid so need a new shock, haven't got the cash for a new one.
Also saw an 2008 1100 Ducati Monster shock, any thoughts.

This is not an unbiased post as I am friend of Martin Leigh, top bloke who owns MTC exhausts. I have a set of stainless rounds on mine, with no fitting problems. The issue with a lot of companies making cans are the link pipes, most companies buy the link pipes in from a supplier and unfortunately t...

I am going to try this firm for my chain and sprockets next time. GB MOTORCYCLES tel. 0114 245 9912, the owner is called DARREN. I was helping out on the THUNDERSPRINT stand at the Manchester Bike Show, their stand was next to ours. Seems like a genuine seller who knows his product and very cheap at...

That looks a nice example, I have just seen it on ebay, good bike for someone out there.

Yes, my bike is totally standard, no power commander, standard air box etc. The bike runs fine with MTC cans, thanks for the interest in his products, you won't be disapointed.

I have had a success there should be two Raptors at the Thundersprint. Having tried to get a number of NSR250's at previous Thundersprints I know how hard it is to get any kind of gathering together. Believe me, it would be good if we could get a number of RAPTORS together, it could become an Annual...

On the MTC EXHAUSTS offer thing, they already do some great offers, often doing 20% off etc. The owner is Martin Leigh, speak to him mention me, (Scott Leven) and see what he comes up with. It will be cheaper than any leading brands and his products are just as good. I went for a cheap option, stain...

Hello to all in RAPTOR land, recently bought a Silver V Raptor 1000, 2001, 18,000 miles and I'm really impressed.

I am entering the 2012 THUNDERSPRINT, I am racing a 600 SRAD in the modern classics, but more importantly I will be entering my V RAPTOR 1000 in the cavalcade. The THUNDERSPRINT is a brilliant free biking day out and was wondering if any other RAPTOR owners would like to enter the cavalcade and show...
