I will certainly do. Thanks also to every-one that contributed to my request so far. I appreciate it. The planning is getting form and I currently have about 3 weeks of riding... I need more please!!

Pullin here at the Orange Elephant sometime I would love to but you will need to give me GPS co-ords or description where this is?

Tx Matewis

Tx Chris. I am also planning to work Flying Brick in for the tank conversion whilst in the Cape

Tx Gerard. That seems awesome! Did this trip eventually materialised? I will definitely use this as a basis line and plan from there.

I need help/advice from some-one that know the area well. I have a 3 month break next year March to May and would like to explore that part of the world. I have bought the paper T4Africa map but battle to find all the iconic places every-one is talking/writing about, Angies, Ronnies, Tankwa...

This seems like a good alternative for the range issue. My question though is the replacement of the modified airfilter to allow for the sensor. Do you have to import this every time or is this modified version available in South Africa and at what price?

I've got Rumbux on mine but the lower bolt running through the engine mounting keeps breaking off. I've tried different strength steelbolts but no luck so far. Used it with springwashers and normal washers but still no luck!

No photo's of the trip? Would've love to join as I always wanted to do this. Unfortunately only saw the mail thread now. Damn!

Buddy I did check the standard Sahara is 140/18/18 and the D908RR is the same. Interesting though is that the speedo pick up work from the rear tire. I found the speedo speed vs GPS speed is 90km/h (Speedo) and 120km/h on the GPS! Now how does that work! The speedo and GPS difference on the...

Tx for all the replies! I followed Piston Pete's advise and did the front 2.4 and rear 2.6 bar. Still had the problem but then took it out on a tar ride. 200km later and the problem seemed to resolve itself! I was doing 130km/h with only a slight hint of weaving. Now for gravel. Hope to do some...

Piston Peter, tx I will increase the pressure as suggested and try. Will feedback tomorrow

Just checked. Properly lined up and chain correct tightness. Man, this is weird and I have heard so much good about these tyres

I have just replaced my OEM Sahara's on my 690R with D606 front and D908RR on the rear. The wheels are properly balanced and is pumped 1.8 front and 2.0 rear. The bike start to weave at 90km/h and if I push it harder it threatens to turn into a serious slapper. I have now done about 100km but is...

Tx. Phoned them but the shop is closed till next week. Will try again then!

I've seen an oversize cover that goes over the bark protectors protecting your hands from the cold wind. Something like "elephant ears" that strap over the bark protector. Does any-one know where I can buy this?

Maybe we can have an area that provide a list of routes done by members per geographical area, ie. Lesotho, Swaziland, Gauteng, etc.? That will provide a single place for members to browse should they want to plan a trip.

Just got it back from the dealer. I took it for a oil filter and oil change. They maintain the oil usage is normal. At least I got the mid service oil change registered should I have a claim later. Maybe I should contact Alfie for advice. Problem is I am based in Pta.

The bike is still under warrantee. I hope it settles. I will make sure the dealer is aware of this and push the topic if it does not get resolved. I was not aware of the airbox issue but had a look and it seems OK. No dust on the inside

I just realised my typo error. It is actually a 2016 model
