    130kg and Small bike

    I had a TTR250 when I was about 150kg I didn't think I did the bike any favours, but it managed quite well with the commute and some light touring Never bottomed it out or felt like abusing it I have a lot of mechanical sympathy, so I never tried to be an enduro god on it If he can find a...

    Rechargeable headlamps

    These are very good, but not always 'camp friends friendly' If you want everywhere in front of you illuminated it is great, but if you are using it for braaing while having a conversation with other people, every time you look in their direction it is a bit uncomfortable Works like a freakin'...

The O-Ring...

    Sorted Kaoko Throttle Lock

    Hi Not what you asked for, but the pooratech version up to where you get a proper one is to slide an appropriately sized O ring over the bar end and then leave it on the edge in front of that lip on the grip and then slip it over the gap between the bar end and throttle when needed, and slide it...

    Sold 2003 Yamaha XT600e

    Wish I had the money now If I had the money I would have sold the GSA, bought this and then started to pester the Visarende if they maybe had enough of the LT yet 🙃 Good luck with the sale though

    Am I being stupid

    'Old' :) I feel the same as you The newest vehicle on my property is 2006 Edit: Although I must confess, I missed the original post's '2013' I also won't be able to buy new any time soon, but my opinion regarding 'refurbish' vs 'buy new' original question is that at some point you won't be...

    Another 450 from China

    Maybe the guy riding it is one of the people they use n China to measure how many people can fit into a tent and he is making the bike look big ?

    R 300 MITCHELS PLEIN ( BELVILLE-Boston to N2 SOMERSET WEST )

    Hi The R300 goes off towards the N2 before Mitchell's plain, so you will be fine Just don't do it at 2am You can also just go straight on the N1, through the tunnel (or 15 minutes longer go over for better views) and then go Robertson/Ashton/Swellendam Edit: I just checked and according to a...
