The big question that is always asked relates to either OIL or Tyres , and I think its because oil keeps the engine in good condition , cuts expenses so to speak if you are diligent in checking the oil level , using top grade oil and not checking has no benefit . Now tyres is a different case...

AUTHOR Mat Oxley Kevin Schwantz helped define an era of grand prix racing that’s rightly considered one of the sport’s golden ages. The American’s vicious battles with countrymen Wayne Rainey and Eddie Lawson and Australians Mick Doohan and Wayne Gardner are the stuff of legend. Who better to...

Re training on a mx bike , many years ago watched a video of K SWANTZ training on a offroad bike on his ranch , thing was that on that bike they removed the brakes , no front and no rear , and off he went like a bat out of hell , control from the right wrist .

I still ride/commute everyday , have been for 44 years , last 35 Kempton to Randburg , BUT as soon as I am back from a trip the gears start whirring again for the next ride

My friend and I must suffer from itchy butt , we are hardly back from a trip and the next one is being planned ! I am the one with the ideas and plans , he just pitches up and rides . For this weekend coming we are doing things a little side ways if one can call it that . So here is the route...

I have two KTM jackets for sale , both in very good condition , no 1 is a BLUE /ORANGE STREET EVO JACKET SIZE XXL R3500.00 N02 BLACK /ORANGE /GREY APEX JACKET , has a removable waterproof softshell inner that doubles as a destination jacket . R2250.00

There was a post on body armour and how good or bad they are , I like most of us have armour fitted to the jacket and pants , knees need it . Now in my case being challenged in the leg department , battle to find pants that have the knee guard in the right place , and have the pants tailored...

Sorry need some more advice , the road down to Greytown from Dundee and then back to Colenso , is this doable and is there some mountain pass type roads ? or better to give it a miss as its in Zulu land and plenty cows and stuff in the road?

Doing some research for when the itch gets overwhelming and we just have to ride . Thinking of using a different route to my favourite destination " Clarence " Departing Kempton park and head east to Delmas from here towards Leandra - Evander and then turn south to Standerton . From here we...

Like most of you I like chasing adventures , and making memories as this will be talking points when you cant go out and ride . I hope that I have many many more years of being able to go chase adventure . What I do find strange is that so riders will go far to play on a dirt road , or for...

I know this has been discussed before , but as this road is /was still being built last time I was there in November 23 I have to ask again , any idea how for they have gone with the road , If one had to enter from PHUDITJABE , is the road paved or still dirt? last year it was paved about 15 ks...

Dropped valve normally occurs when you down change at high RPM , piston traveling faster that valve train , and and and . disaster ! You will only know the damage once you open the motor , apart from the obvious valves and gaskets , you could be in for a new head , piston and if unlucky a...

THANKS , Then like 20 to 1, :cry:

When you talk $ is it ZIM or US ?

I am aware we all have our favourite destinations , for most in JHB its ET or maybe Clarence , I have done the South coast a couple times , maybe more but now a little stumped as to where to go for a sleep out weekend ride . A direction that does not have kilos of boring Hi way , But then any...
