Bits wanted for Honda Transalp

Am doing “remodelling” of 1987 TA RD06.

Am looking for the following (condition/colour not important, cheap is important…):

1. Alli bashplate/engine guard. Either aftermarket, homemade, or off an Africa Twin RD03 or RD04

2. MX headlight/ bikini fairing/ or similar that clips onto forks (41mm diameter?)

3. Pannier rack or similar (homemade?): only needed to keep small soft luggage (Oxford panniers for a sportsbike) off the exhaust and from interfering with the wheel/chain.

Leave a msg here, email me (icon above) or call in the UK on 07812 941 867

Cheers
ChrisB

ahhh, but what about...

4) crash bars (i don't mind used ones)

5) large tank (do africa twin ones fit?)

6) stiffer forksprings. (any recommendations?)

mines a 97 single disk one.

4. got them via ebay.de
5. got one via ebay.co.uk
rd03 and rd04 tanks fit (fuel pump needed) rd07 tanks don't fit
6. am using original with 10w grade oil.

check out www.transalp.de in german, but run a translation program into english if required.
