    Wanted: Any bike in ZA in April/May - Preferred EU registration

    FYI found a bike thanks to Captain Slow - bought his KLR in PE and rode to CPT; 4 weeks later I'm still hanging out and enjoying the country, the scenery, and the booze.  I will be travelling for up to year vs. 5 months now, so I'm in no hurry.  Drop me a line if anyone is interested in a ride...

    Wanted: Any bike in ZA in April/May - Preferred EU registration

    Ha, so I'll take that as an "you're out of your mind." I dropped a note in the new member forums. I'll keep hunting - equivalent cost to ship in and ship out a USA-registered bike looks to be about 35,000 R for me, so hopefully something in that range turns up.
