Hagon finally arrived - though Hagon UK based it came from Japan in the end - fitted last weekend and bike was "horing kry lekker ry" again. Unfortunately did not even do 100k's and a blik cut the corner - swerved but could not get out of the way and it hit me on the right foot and lower leg...

Thanks for all the advice - called Fast Eddie's but they could not help. Since I need the bike to stay sane in this traffic and use it every day and a lack of time due to workload to look for a place to repair ordered a Hagon from UK at arond R3300.00 - should be in Nairobi next week. Cant wait...

Thanx Burp n JimJim - quote from Honda - R 7000.00 - thats the damper only - with a wait time of weeeks and at a third of the bikes cost - cant do. Alternative available in UK - complete untit at around R3300.00 rand. JimJim can u send me Dave's contact details? Sending the shock to SA will mean...

Is there a rear shock absorber from any other bike that will fit the Dominator? - with all this rain in Nairobi I took the southern bypass in Nairobi - basicly offroad with river crossings in this wheather ( my Dommie kannie swemmie - het gevrek in die middel van die stroom - maar gelukkig weer...

Jislaaik - hoe jaloers is ek nou! Op daai Cederberg ride en op jou petrolverbruik -  - my verbruik wissel tussen 16 en 18km/ liter - dis nou in Nairobi verkeer en ek is nogal lief om sy oor te draai. Carburator gaan al bietjie beter - rev nou gladweg op na 5500 revs maar begin sluk hier by 6000...

Thanx - will check this weekend - have someone in UK from kenya - so will order if necc. Where just checking your screen - template made so hopefully can complete that as well this weekend. Cederberge - paradise - i love that place - have fun.

Thanx JimJim - gues this weekend its carburator time. I think I also have a problem with the starter plunger - whether I push it on or off makes no difference - thinking of blocking it - Nairobi seldom go's below 12 deg. This week bike developed starter problems - removed it and cleaned it and...

Het oor die afgelope paar maande die Dommie so bietjie gediens - nuwe agterband, ketting, sprockets, agterbriek pads, K&N airfilter, Olie en oliefilter, Valves gestel - en ja - doos wat ek is die carb gestrip en skoongemaak. Bike hardloop lekker maar sukkel nog met die carb - het dooie spot op...

Dominator after working the weekend branding the Standard Chartered Nairobi Marathon

Laat ek weer probeer.

JimJim - like the screen on your bike - I need to build one since at 100 and above the wind is klapping me big time. Another difference I note is the front mudgaurd - looks much cooler than the road type on my bike ( the Dommi's used in the Camel Trophy also had the high front mudgaurd - 2 nice...

Dusty Rusty - my vorige fiets was 'n Honda MTX 200 R en ek het omtrent 10 jaar laas gery. Stem saam met jou - voor ek die Dommi gekry het was die plan om eers naweke gewoond te raak aan die fiets - na die eerste dag gese - Nairobi se traffic se moer en van die eerste dag af werk toe en terug...

Handige link vir die Dominator - owners manual en service manual -  https://www.eikholt.net/hpalt/dommi/index01.htm 

Thanx jimjim DustyRusty - is 'n produksiebestuurder en deesdae permanent fabrieksrot - maar ja wil gaan ry - nice ding omtrent Kenia - daar is nie baie drade en heinings nie - so as 'n plek interesant lyk dan gaat jy net - solank mens net hoflik teenoor die PB's is. Hoop om 'n report of 2 te post.

Thanx Piet Yes JimJim - same model - are spare parts available in SA? - basics like sprockets - need front one urgently. Thanx Dusty Rusty - moet se ek geniet die bike - ja myne het ook die Toolbox agter die bashplate en gebruik selfde sluitel as die ignition

thanx vir al die welkoms Shearingroads - daai Dakar is 'n lieflike fiets - hier is die prys en onderoud bietjie rof - met die Honda het ek darem paar sent vir petrol en bier - met die Cheetas support - geen probleem - solank hulle net nie teen die WP speel nie.

Howzit allie Wilde Honda - meen Honde. Is 'n long time lurker en het uiteindelik gejoin. Ry 'n ou Honda NX 650 Dominator - so maand terug gekoop en gebruik daagliks werk toe en terug in Nairobi verkeer. Bike het aandag nodig maar het die 160km Nakuru toe mooi gehardloop - more vat ek die pad...
