    Scramblers.

    I have a Ducati Scrambler Desert Sled. Great bike, enjoying it so much. It's a bit limited as a full-on adventure bike, with a small fuel tank, minimal wind protection, small diameter wheels and fairly harsh suspension (which is at least adjustable), but so far I've been everywhere where my...

    Sold Aprillia Tuareg 660

    If I can find a buyer for my Sled, I'll be looking at your Tuareg... Don't know if you know Percy that used to run the Ducati shop in Cape Town? He once told me that a friend of his has the Fasthouse Sled as well. Don't know if that was yours, or maybe the only other one in the country...

    Sold Aprillia Tuareg 660

    Is this your bike perhaps @Striggs? Just curious. And I see you also had a Desert Sled? Nice! I've had mine now for almost 2 years. Any idea where yours is now?

    Living with a bike with no dealer network..?

    What would you say are the cons of buying a motorcycle brand that has no specific dealer presence in the country? I can think of some of the obvious (parts availability, obviously), but is there anything less obvious one might miss?

    Sold Aprillia Tuareg 660

    This is the bike I probably should have bought. Alas, I bought what was available (and what I fell in love with) at the time. Is this a private sale? I'm just wondering if there is a trade in possibility somewhere..?

    Show us your KLR

    Just putting it out there in case - spotted in Woodstock at one of those street side bike workshops: dusty green KLR with CFM plate and Cederberg eagle bumper sticker on the front screen.

    Wie sê ek is nie ook 'n snoring Afrikaner nie?! :ROFLMAO::sleep: Nah, I just like my creature comforts too much. I haven't slept in a tent in years, haven't had a good sleep in a tent in even longer...

    Thanks for the speedy reply. 100% understood and noted. Will most likely book a campsite then and enjoy the best of both worlds...

    Western Cape Bash 2024. Ons Karoo Plaas. 12-14 April 2024

    Is there an option to pay for the dinners only? I'm thinking of staying a short distance away from the Plaas in my own accommodation...

    Info on the routes in Norden 901 Exp launch video

    Some good looking roads and trials shown in the recently released launch and review videos of the Norden 901 Expedition. It's easy to recognise that a lot of them are in the Grabouw area, but some are less obvious; I'm keen to know where! A few screenshots attached for reference, but there were...
