k1boon I am looking for a 850, 850R or V70 T5. Would you know of any which are for sale? I would like to have a 7-seater with some punch. Thanks, Regards, Kim. Dec 1st, 2014

Leyt850R hi new to all this forum stuf was hopeing someone could help me find the bits to put 300mm brakes on frunt of my 850r ? need new caliper slider ? Nov 12th, 2011
milemunching 960 Hi Ren,

Would the twin exhaust set upon yours fit the 960 estate (like mine)? How much did it cost to put on including parts. Were there any modifications required for fitting etc?
I love the look of your R. Very, very nice (jealous - in fact)!

Kind regards,

Kent.
