    Ok what’s the deal with chain tension?

    My 2C worth. As many indicated, compress the back end. The swing arm should be horizontal and you measure the slack of chain at bottom. (ask 2 voluteers to sit on bike or strap down between frame and swing arm) There must be a bit of play. On a previous thumper I owned, had a dealer install a...

    Oh no... Noneking down??

    I am a bit shocked to see this happening to you NoneKing. I remember you & Dwerg had your fair share of medical "challenges" over the years that involved a bike...I was today at Fast KTM, admiring these machines and thought of Mr KTM / Dr Noneking for some unknown reason. I here I sit in...

    Noneking’s 890 R Rally Thread

    Amazing this Rottweiler air intake. Why can`t KTM get it correct to keep the dust out? Just asking.. On your videos I saw you all had to do a deep water crossing. Have you removed the wheels and inspected the bearings or is it properly sealed?  What about the shaft for the swingarm point point...

    Noneking’s 890 R Rally Thread

    Very impressive Noneking...now with the extra horsepower be sure not to loose the "mojo" when the power kicks in hard! Meant to ask you, the dirt tracks you and fellow mates ride over weekends, are they mostly tribal land or communal land?  Just curious from a safety point of view.  Keep...

    Noneking’s 890 R Rally Thread

    Noneking. Seen your YouTube video...wow, you are definitely "King" now. The pace seems very fast and it appears the bike takes anything in its stride. Think you should invest more time and effort in your YouTube videos,,,e.g. voice over, pictures etc. you might end up with a big loyal following...

    @Mr Zogg - your cupboard and flooring looks great. Well done Sir. Any news on your boat/s? Have you and Mrs. Zogg recovered fully from Covid-19?

    A little bit of Limpopo is good for the soul.

    Great ride report Noneking. I enjoyed it and can only dream of this of type of nature riding. How does Harry know about all these routes? Those steep inclines and declines  look easy on camera, but the real thing is another animal. It seems as if an older bike for this type of technical riding...

    Mr Zog - "Mofasa"  -  e.g. fasa - I made the "move" and a bit of your African heritage (the Lion). Congratulations on the stunning truck.
