    Gasket set on 990

    Just had the steering column bearings replaced on my 990s Adventure. I wanted to sell it but can't do it now. It has sprung an oil leak... sometime largish marks on cement floor, sometimes nothing, sometime just a drop. I was quoted R 7k for a new gasket set - that is without labour. Is it...

    Selling 990 Adventure S - help needed

    It is due to unforeseen reasons (I had a unexpected heart attack 4 months ago) and the old age catching up on me that I am looking at selling my 2008 orange and blue 990. :cry: I always knew this will be my last bike but the heart attack was very unexpected and the moment has now arrived where I...

    Did your riding style changed over the years?

    My thoughts exactly. Sometimes I enjoy riding the fresh mornings winter or summer at 60 or 70, other days doing 160 on the highways not unusual. However, after my heart attacked me 2 months ago it seems I am a bit slower, a bit more cautious .... ouderdom is 'n bok en 'n bok is 'n bliksem!

    15 min idle why and how

    Current fuel consumption very normal i.e. 12 k/l 'hard' (150-160kph) riding and 15-16 km/l in city

    15 min idle why and how

    Your suggestion as to what is a premium quality injector cleaner please? Never heard of something like that but then I am not technical. Thanks.,

    15 min idle why and how

    A more technical minded friend said my bikes idling may be very rich, he can smell a little bit of petrol in the fumes. I see RRRRR out my already thin wallet but he say's its only that EUC need to talk to fuel injectors... of so iets. I know it has to be exactly 15 min of normal idling on level...

    Are there still newbies who'd like to be taken out on rides? PTA edition

    OK hoe klink Sat oggend vroeg. Ek wil nie heeltemal so ver ry nie (sal vertel wanneer ons bymekaar is) en wil nie graag alleen ry nie. Of te moeilike paaie ry nie. Pulsonic - apologies not meaning to "stel" your show but if there are people who like to ride but not that far, please let me know...
