What makes it better is the power (not scary, but much better for overtaking) and suspension. If you ever carry a passenger, the Tornado will do it much more easily than the 190.

Howzit man. Don't worry about the age of the bike. Worry about the mileage and condition. Tornado's run to 180000km easily with routine maintenance. I've owned 5 of them, including the 2012. Not all 2012 models have the leaky gasket. You'll know as soon as you view the bike. The Tornado is a...

Please do. That would be great.

Hi guys, Do any of you know of a reliable bike transportation company (or honest person) who could transport my two KTM500s from Cape Town to Walvisbaai, Namibia? We're planning a 10 day trip in Kaokoland starting on May 11. The bikes would also need to be returned to Cape Town afterwards...

I'm selling my brand new Motominded Supermount V2. It's used for hard-mounting a headlight mask with an aftermarket headlight (e.g. Baja Designs) so that it doesn't bounce around with the stock mask rubber straps. It also tidies up the rats nest of wiring. Fits 2015-2019 KTM and Husky bikes...

Selling my lightly used Steg Pegz. Fits all KTM dirt bikes 2017-2019. Awesome for reducing fatigue and lower back pain when standing up on a dirt bike. Here's a video that explains how they work: R2000 excl. postage. They currently cost R3500 landed in SA. Message me here or call me on...

Are you with Johnny's group?

I'm not sure yet. Probably a similar one to the last one, with a few detours that I haven't planned yet. It's my wife's first time so I want to show her the highlights.

Hey guys. I'm heading back to Kaokoland near the end of May 2022. This time with my wife on her 500 too. Are any of you going to be up there too?

Hey guys, My wife and I have a Namibia trip planned for May/June 2022 (on our 500s) and I need to get two tires to Windhoek somehow. If you are driving from Cape Town to Windhoek in the next 6 weeks or so, would you be willing to transport two tires for me? If not, any ideas for transporting...

The Dunlop 606 front is just plain dangerous off-road.  Don't risk it. It washes out of gravel all the time and almost killed me in several crashes. I've read many other people complain of the same thing. In my opinion, the best 50/50 front is the Pirelli MT21. It's fantastic on road, does a...

I have done that mod on my 2016 KTM 500. Coming from a two-stroke with no automatic fan switch, I thought I needed to wire in a manual fan switch on my 500. I found it unnecessary in the end because in slow technical stuff the automatic fan switch on the 500 kicks the fan in as soon as I slow...

@Dirt Junkie what bike is this off? Will the hardware fit a 2016 ktm500? Has it been serviced recently? Sent from my SM-G975U1 using Tapatalk

Thanks man. The panniers in the first pics were one's from South America. Awful. They lasted 2 days before falling apart. The later one is a Giant Loop Cayote. It's the most stable rackless system I've found so far.

Glad you enjoyed it, Brakenjan. I also was inspired by MetalJockey's exploits.

Although I am surely too late, add me to the queue. Have cash. Sent from my SM-N950U1 using Tapatalk

Ruan, are those Michelin Desert MO2 and M16 mousses? What tire do you run up front? Thanks Boet. Sent from my SM-N950U1 using Tapatalk

Are you sure you're not thinking of Turkana Gear? https://www.facebook.com/1183779608372998/

Thanks man. I'm glad that you enjoyed it. I'm dreaming up another Kaokoland trip as I can't seem to get it out of my system. :-)
