    DRZ 400 vraag

    Dankie. Ek sien geen rook as ek die fiets teen die sonlig parkeer en bietjie rev nie, ek het egter van n ou gelees wat ook geen rook kon waarneem nie maar toe tog op die end sy ringe vervang het en toe was die probleem opgelos...sal dit maar heel moontlik doen, die baie olie gooi voel net nie...

    DRZ 400 vraag

    Dit lyk my hulle is soos die klr 650s, as jy gelukkig is kry jy een wat geen olie gebruik nie, anders moet jy maar aanvaar dat jy altyd olie moet saamry op lang trips. Ek sien op ander forums dat daar heelwat ouens is wat ook kla oor olie verbruik,maar dat daar net soveel ouens is wat geen olie...

    Die fiets het op geen stadium gerook nie, ook geen tekens van n olie lek iewers nie.

    DRZ 400 vraag

    Net n vraag aan die wat weet. Is dit normaal vir n drz 400 om olie te gebruik teen 100kmh oor lang afstande? Ek het n 15/41 tand kombinasie, so my revs is nie so hoog nie. Ek het so pas 3500km afgelê Namibië toe, was elke dag +/- 36°C, so dit was bitter warm. Ek moes met so 1.2 liter olie optop...

    T4A - Still relevant?

    Ek het September 2023 n maand lank in Zim en Bots getoer. Het Desember 2022 T4A opgegradeer...die Zim inligting was absoluut crap, en dit nogal in populere plekke soos Hwange NR en Kariba verby pad. Bots se inligting was ok, is T4A nog relevant? Nie oral nie..

    DRZ 400 DIPSTICK

    I am looking for a dipstick for my DRZ 400, the one I have is cross threaded and is a bugger to screw in. Any good dipstick lying around somewhere, or can I order a new one from Suzuki?

    Thanks I will check it out! Just for laughs-I had no idea of biking clothes those years-I did the trip mostly in shorts, a t-shirt and vellies!! I met some Germans in Malawi that shipped their bikes to Mombassa. Just their bike clothing was worth more than my complete outfit, including my bike!

    I think it was the D707, I came back from Sossusvlei. Those years you could still drive right to the dead vlei on your bike.

    Yup, worn valve stem seals, started smoking when running against compression when I closed the throttle. Replaced the seals in Dar and sold the bike two year later without any further issues. I followed the eastern route, west africa was still closed for south africans thoose years. I went via...

    Yes, it had an electric start which was nice, but in my opinion its only drawback as well. I used to do many solo trips back in the day and I once put the bike down hard in the Namibia sand, took me a while to get out underneath the bike. The battery lost a lot of electrolite by the time I had...

    :LOL: That fridge was my old army trommel! Way back in 1996 I could not find any info for a trans africa trip, no quick google to give me any pointers! I decided to stash everything in my army trommel and lock it to ensure no one helps themselves to my stuff. I had lots of engine spares in there...
