Nope....different horses for.... Had them both for a while and as I said, while the fun factor of the 500 is hard to beat, the 300 may be better suited to the terrain and format of the event. Time will tell. I have 3 months to beat my aging body into shape, select the bike to suite the event and...

It is a toss up between the KTM500 and the CRF300L for Project X in September. 500 has the power to weight ratio that is unrivalled in the sand (and the fun factor is off the chart)...and the 300 has proved itself difficult to beat with its low down torque and "mountain goat" label. It will also...

Are you going to enter?

Hmmm....?

Vaalbaas, your meat and wors contributed greatly to the enjoyment of all who attended...TOP DRAWER STUFF.

I have a DR and CRF 300 and without hesitation would take the DR : easier to work on/ fix in the field, stronger subframe , better on the open road. You are welcome to contact me if you want more than my 5c worth.

What business are you in? been here 14 years now and wouldn`t trade it for anything, but as Kobus said, it is a difficult place to do business. That said, I started from scratch and did ok. You are welcome to call me if you want to discuss. Pete 0823578842

My combination of choice on the DR, KTM500 and300L. With the 300 i leave them at 1.5bar and don`t touch them again...worked through a variety of terrain including Damaraland and Kaokoland...rocks, sand, whatever. No issues.

I may have a pair for you. Will look and bring them to Oukloof.

If you do make one I would be very interested as well. I can also help design and manufacture custom luggage to fit it EXACTLY. Please let me know. Pete.

4.5kg max warning on the frame at the points you attach rear carrier.

CRF300 is not the right bike in my opinion. Subframe not strong enough to handle what you will need to carry. I have a 300 and a DR 650 . I love the 300, but not the right tool for the job. DR is perfect. Ask Michnus Olivier.

Thanks Jay T It looks like I have the use of a RMC250 for my visit. I am doing a short trip with my girlfriend (she works there) at the end of this month to check out the lie of the land with a view to a more extensive trip later. Not really wanting to be guided or see any of the classic tourist...

My trip that I anticipated doing last year was postponed, but looking promising for this year. Anyone have a contact there ito bike hire?

Look at G/Reinet to Murraysburg and then west towards Nellsport. On the road you turn south to Aberdeen..very nice route. My 5c...

Oukloof Pass and surrounding area a few weeks ago...epic mountain trails, classic river beds and the lure of the Groot Karroo.

Nope..sold it a while back and boughtt a 500.
