    1 Spoor Avonture DSTV

    I missed the first episode but enjoyed the second. Obviously criticism is a bit pointless now, since the series has probably been filmed and edited a long time ago, but in Monday's episode there was far too much talking and far too little bike action. Most of it could have been shot in a studio...

    Maybe Trip - Rodepoort/Krugersdorp etc

    Nog 'n opsie (alhoewel die teenoorgestelde rigting van Beestekraal) is om van Florida suid na die Vredefort Koepel toe te ry. Dis net omtrent 20 km se deurpad suid na Lenz om weg te kom van die stad en daarna 'n lekker rit van 300 tot 400km op grondpaaie. Baie lekker paaie in die Parys/Vredefort...

    Drone fotos/videos

    I saw something on the DJI web site where you apply to have the no-fly zones activated on your account by submitting documentation from your national authority(ies) proving that you have the necessary clearance. My drone keeps on asking me to download software upgrades, but I don't think that...

    5 Inch Portable Colour Motorcycle GPS Display - R2149

    Dookie, where did you order the Carpuride from? Fruugo no longer stock their equivalent model. Also, is the screen any brighter than a phone?

    Stolen 990 adventure S

    @skydiver I already looked on Takealot myself but many of the reviews say that the alarm sound is not at all loud and the device is a waste of money. That's why I asked @Allegro specifically which brand it is that makes "a moer of a noise". If it isn't loud there's no point buying it and "moer...

    401km/h

    Let's wait for the engineers to tell us, but my turbo car has equal performance whether it's at the coast or the Highveld, whereas a non-turbo car picks up 18% more power at the coast (more oxygen). So if a turbo bike/car puts out the same power at low or high altitude then it "should" run...

    Kyk, 'n groot dam!

    @Dorsland "Sal jy glo die dam se kuslyn is omtrent 430km." If you add together the coastlines of the Vaal Dam and the Gariep Dam, the Free State has a longer coastline than Natal.

    Electric gate: open/close indicator

    I also cannot see my garage door from my house and don't like unlocking the security gate late at night to go out and look. I stuck a magnet and reed switch to the door and frame (available from Builders security section) and set it up that it closes the contacts when the door is fully closed. I...

    Can you identify the charging cable

    The 276C may not have a touch screen like some of the latest GPSes but it is still a formidable device and has one huge advantage over newer screens - it uses an old TFT type colour LED screen which actually works better the more the sun shines on it. As the angle of the sun changes to become...

    Can you identify the charging cable

    It also fits a Garmin GPSMap276C. If you want to get rid of it I would be willing to give it a loving home. You can PM me.

    Sorted! 2003 F650GS Fuel Pump help needed

    Here's a rough and ready test you can do without any instruments that will answer a whole host of questions for any motor that doesn't want to start. Firstly, replace all the bits you have removed so that the complete bike (tank, pump, regulator, filter, injector, sensors) literally everything...

    A TT500, a CRF300L and 43 years that separate them

    I was in the first draft of CF ou manne who got called up in 1976 to go into Angola to fight that stupid incursion for that warmongering PW Botha and the liar Pik Botha, who addressed the UN General Assembly with the infamous words: "I would like to state categorically that there is not a single...

    Hydraulic oil for bottle jack

    I agree, ATF (Automatic Transmission Fluid) is the easiest and cheapest option. A mate of mine who operated a forklift company told me that hydraulic oil and ATF is exactly the same stuff, just with different colourant added. Perhaps one of the other forum members with more knowledge can confirm...

    Daar is iets in die eenvoud van 'n klein fiets op 'n grondpad

    Ek is 'n gebore Suid-Afrikaanse rooinek, maar een wat in die Vrystaat skool toe gegaan het. "Dual Medium" het hulle gesê, maar wat hulle bedoel het was 'n skool waar ALLES in Afrikaans was behalwe die taal in die een klaskamer vol rooinekke. In elk geval, het dit my in goeie stand geplaas om...

    2024 Turkana Safari Challenge

    Jy moet gaan ry, boet. Daar's ook nie 'n oseaan of 'n bergpas of sneeu in Gauteng nie. En waar ook al bly jy, het jy nie vier provinsies nie. Klim op daai stofskooter en RYYYY!
