    Your opinion on Spirit motorcycle gear?

    Hi Dogs, So after a recent tumble, I'm in the market for a new riding jacket and helmet. The Spirit gear looks like decent quality at reasonable pricing, I use my motorcycle daily for commuting, so these items get replaced every year or two, which makes it very expensive buying the best of the...

    Illegal plates.

    There is a place in Centurion, I think the name is V Custom cycles. They make them according to the size you require. They will just tell you it is a "bar sign" and not a numberplate. I'm guessing to protect themselves. But the plate itself is exactly like the old plastic plates we use to get. I...

    Husqvarna 650TR Terra Owners - Past and Present

    I bought mine new and apparently they also did the update on the ECU but it made no difference.

    Husqvarna 650TR Terra Owners - Past and Present

    I had one, was quite a nice bike. The only gripe I had with it is it seemed to sometimes have a hesitation/stall on pullaway or acceleration. And it use to break the numberplate holder thingy. Otherwise it was quite fun.

    Which commuter to buy?

    Oops... Dan moet ek seker, die knuckle naby an my palm is na meer as 'n maand nogsteeds groter as die ander hand sinne en hy voel los as mens die duim van die hand af wegtrek... Maar wat nie doodmaak nie maak groot I guess... Thanks for the info gents, it seems like the NC might be the better...

    Which commuter to buy?

    Nee, nie te erg nie. Duim kwaai verstuit en knie so bietjie stukkend. My helmet het baie seerder as ek gekry. Was so weird highside affere... My hart hardloop weg van die Honda af, maar met die huidige petrolpryse en dinge moet mens maar met die kop koop...

    Which commuter to buy?

    Het nog nie regtig navorsing gedoen op die Hero tot nou toe nie, maar dit lyk my nie dit gaan gebeur nie. Die NC lyk eintlik na die slimste opsie wat brandstof verbruik ens aanbetref. DIe fiets gaan nie 'n tussenin fiets wees nie, maar eerder iets wat ek soos 'n tool kan gebruik en nie worry...

    Which commuter to buy?

    Dankie Gerard, maar ek wil juis kleiner gaan. Ek het vergeet om te noem die Suzuki Drz400sm is ook 'n sterk contender. (As mens een kan kry)

    Which commuter to buy?

    So as luck would have it I had a "incident" on my Ducati Scrambler. Insurance will be paying out for it to be fixed, but while waiting I am considering buying something as an absolute tool to commute with. My requirements are as follows: Not more than R70k Light on fuel Tyre sizes which can be...

    2015 BMW S1000XR tell me more?

    Met die huidige petrolprys jaag ek fokken nowhere... Nie eers vir die bottelstoor nie.

    Sold FS: Yamaha BWS 100 2-Stroke Scooter *SOLD*

    Ek gaan seker nou soos 'n idioot klink, maar ek is opsoek na 'n goedkoper commuter as my reeds goedkoop commuter. Hierdie outjies gooi so 110km/h voluit neh? HOe lyk brandstof verbruik?

    2015 BMW S1000XR tell me more?

    Decided to rather stay with the Duc for now, maybe get another(cheaper/older) bike as a toy rather than forking out the bucks for the BMW and then keep the Ducati, as it is truly excellent as a commuter. Light, nimble, easily maneuverable in traffic, approximately 23km/l. What I'm trying to say...
