Disclaimer - this is non rover related, and has a couple off color comments. The being said, the bimmer bike crowd shares a lot with the rover crowd in terms of wrenching, and lets face it, if I could write as well as this guy, I'd be a lot richer.

Enjoy!

Great writup. I wish there were more writeups of this quality for rover mods and repairs.

 

"Display some mechanical curiosity or go buy a goddamn Honda"- that seemed especially fitting for the Rover crowd. that's a great site, I was on it quite a bit b/f the wife threw down the gauntlet on the new daddy getting an adventure bike. now daddy has an adventure truck (and it has a/c!), but not as good gas mileage...

 

Ah yes, the SWMBO gauntlet....Don't have a tech article on that fix yet.

I just made sure to have 2 bikes BEFORE settling down, that way I could market it as a package deal...

So far, its worked. We'll see what happens when I come home with bike #3...

My personal favorite part of that was "Finding TDC" section.
