Ag no man Willem.  I was looking forward to seeing this beaut this coming weekend at the Bloem Toyrun... Hope you manage to get it sorted before then.  :thumleft:

Thanks for your input LSS, much appreciated! Planning on taking a look at it later this week. Might ask you a few questions in future.  :thumleft:  :D I have spoken with the owner of that one at Checkers before, he works at the photo shop. Nike bike yes. The bike is running, and in great...

Hi all. I am looking at aquiring a Suzuki DR600. The plan is to give it the same treatment that the KTM got a while ago, with hopefully a few ekstras that Superfoxi will help me with(Think WP  >:D).  :mwink: What are your opinion on spares availability etc? The frame, subframe etc, does it...

Great stuff, dit lyk blerrie goed sover!  :thumleft:

I bought Losper's screen he had on his F800GS when he sold his bike. He spent a lot of time and effort on perfecting the dessign.  :thumleft: It is a heavily modified z-technic screen with a duct at the base to counter the negative wind pressure behind the screen (stops buffeting), and an...

Well, at least they got the right chassis. Thats a KTM 9x0 chassis!  >:D

Thanks for all the compliments! Already starting to plan the next one...  :mwink:  :ricky: Belive it or not, that little beemer was my first real bike, and also the bike that got me into DS/Adventure riding. So although it does have its limitations, I will always have a soft spot for it. ...

Thanks guys!  :ricky: The places that can be seen within the confinements of the ZA borders are just mind boggeling! We all are indeed lucky to have this as our playground.  :thumleft:  8)

Day 4. Day 4 covered a total of 455km. We left early from Elliot and travelled via Otto Du Plessis and Joubertspass to Lady Grey and then on to Bloem via the N6. Again, this was a perfect day for riding. We also had no issues with the bikes so life was filled with biking bliss...

Could not agree with you more!  :thumleft: Will try and post Day 4 tonight.  :ricky:

Thanks for the compliments!  :thumleft:  :)

Day 3. Day three saw us only doing 107kms. We decided to do Bastervoetpad without our luggage, have lunch at our place of stay and then leave for Lady Grey via Otto Du Plessis pass. That would leave Jouberts pass for Monday morning when we return home. That was the plan anyway.  :deal: We...

Thanx guys! :thumleft: Day three to follow soon hopefully. DD, the luggage is def a temporary sollution. Fanie is getting his ATGATT collection going and I spent my budget on Katy a month or so ago. I have oxford soft panniers, but you get what you pay for, I guess. I would rather use refuse...

All I could do was to leave the visor open and ride with wet glasses. Those of you who wear glasses will appreciate the fact that wet glasses are not of much use. So most of the time I was peering over my glasses, with ice and snow and rain hitting me in the eyeballs! But at this point in time I...

Day 2: This day's planning would cover 360km of hard riding. We arrived in Elliot with 330km on the odo after we made changes to the planned route, but more on that later. The morning started with the air being chilly, but not unbearable. We got up early to have breakfast and re-fuel in...

According to Antoine de Saint-Exupery "It is in the compelling zest of high adventure and of victory, and in creative action, that man finds his supreme joys." Well, this trip would bring us Supreme Joys then. Join the journey and find out why...  8) Day one saw us leaving Bloemfontein on a...

I am just busy with compiling a ride report for our trip this past weekend, planning to update on what went wrong en what was done in the meanwhile just after that.  :thumleft:

That's the idea yes.  :thumleft: Staying over at the Colyn's. Elliot drinks, on Saturday? Then we might just join you for a quick one!  8)

Sure I would be able to get the trail, thanks.  ;D We are starting early in Zastron and ending in Elliot. 360km for the day, thats why I said 'as the day progresses', as we will need to evaluate our progress when we get to the option of going down to Rhodes or going on to Tenahead... Hoping to...

Great thanks again guys. Outthere, the top route to Tenahead is the one I was refering to. We are basically skipping Rhodes in the process and we are coming down from Lundean's and plan on going past wartrail and Halstone guest farm on our way there. Thanks for the files.  :thumleft:
