    Would you? Trade ATAS for T7?

    Thanks Chris, just to clarify, the boys (12 & 14) are fine with the 125 - that little bike just got me thinking that maybe I should get something smaller than the ATAS for myself!

    Would you? Trade ATAS for T7?

    Most probably just a gatjeuk flare up, but can't help but to like the Yamaha T7. Funny enough I like gadgets, which my Africa Twin Adv. Sports has lots of. The T7 has none of that. Recently got the boys an XR125 which I got to ride to a weekend destination two weeks ago. Round trip of about...

    Oja en daai lelike exhaust header het darem 'n leksel heat resistant verf gekry. (y)

    The Pooratech Thread

    Dankie Danie, dit is iets wat ek oor gewonder het, dis maar 'n balans tussen klippies en modder keer van voor af, vs. voldoende lugvloei. Ek het hom probeer in lyn stop met die sump/silinder gedeeltes maar dalk moet ek hom voor die somer afhaal en boor teen die kante (sien rooi kolle op foto)...

    The Pooratech Thread

    Recently got the two laaities an XR125L to start learning to ride, and thought that a bash plate might be a good thing since they'll mostly be riding gravel and dirt. Problem is I don't think you get bash plates for small bikes so it became a nice weekend joppie and I think it'll do the job just...

    Wanted 125 / 250cc for a kid who has just started working

    @Fuzzy Muzzy let's hope for the best, if a scooter is an option for now then so be it, I think you're viewing things somewhat more long term in order to get the young man into biking as well and not be put off by a scooter. Either way, hats off to you for trying to make a difference in someone...

    Wanted 125 / 250cc for a kid who has just started working

    Not going to get a decent 250 even close to R12k unfortunately. Rather look at something like an XR125L - if you're lucky you might find one in fair condition for about R18k plus.

    Smart battery charger that can switch between car and motorcycle charging amps

    Not an expert on the matter but to my understanding most of these smart/trickle chargers aren't meant to be used with Lithium batteries, you require a special Lithium battery charger for that. Not sure if it's true but I've played it safe and don't charge my AT since it's got a Lithium battery...

    Smart battery charger that can switch between car and motorcycle charging amps

    I use the Bosch C3 - works great. You can select between car or bike, 6V or 12V, etc.

    Garage mishaps!!!

    Rondom 1985/'86 koop my Pa sy eerste Mercedes, basies natnuwe demo 200 automaties, metalic silwer. Goeie jaar gewees op die plaas en hy's so in sy noppies jy kan toor met hom. Na 'n lesing oor hoe om die deure sag toe te maak en versigtig te wees met my skooltas gee hy toe met 'n swaar hart die...

    Garage mishaps!!!

    Een ding wat ek sukkel om te verstaan: jy kan nou die beste floor paint koop en reg aanwend en als, maar so elke 2 of 3 jaar dop dit op of raak lelik en moet weer oorgedoen word. Maar mors nou per ongeluk enige ander soort verf en daai goed sit vir jare en jare en jy kry dit nie af nie!

    As daai berge en geboue so raps kleiner was, was dit beslis die pad wat Chris sê. Heimer krimp gou die foto asb.

    Destination Unknown via Wherever

    Magtag dit was nou 'n gawe reisverslag en dit boonop in Brits, uit Oudtshoorn! Well written and great pictures - if a RR makes you feel like getting on your bike right now it served its purpose, which this one just did.
