Stunning!!!!! Whoever buys this is scoring big :cool:

Gone to a new home.....Single Spirit Bluetooth headset unit - great for listening to music or connecting to your phone. Works fine but you'll need to get more sticky velcro to fit it inside the helmet. Free to a good home - You can collect in Sandton during office hours.....

Transalp v AT is definitely going to depend on the type of riding you want to do. Both are great bikes. For me, 2-up touring was a priority which meant ATAS DCT and I have no regrets.......until someone asks me to do technical singletrack - which is way beyond my skillset on a 250kg adventure...

:coffee: :cool:

Thanks Pieter, good on you to share ;). Just for the record the words are not mine but written by Valde Ferradaz - he's busy riding through SA at the moment - some good stories/pics of his on FB....
