    Would you travel alone?

    Ludertitz & surrounds definitely worth visiting, amazing open spaces,coastline, old buildings, Kolmanskop etc.etc. & dirt roads surprisingly well maintained. The scenery on the dirt roads from Ludertitz up to Walvis is Epic! Have a look at some pictures on page 2 of the Sailing Board, “At anchor...

    Would you travel alone?

    These days breaking down in a (over)populated area is the danger. The dodgy Okes like to hang out where there’s lots of Prey!

    5 Scariest MX bikes.

    My first literal taste of dirt from too much power at about age 15 was on a TM400 my buddy borrowed from an older neighbor. Too much right wrist, a millisecond later sky, then pain & dust! That experience taught me about 2 stroke power band, so I was slightly more cautious when I got hold my...

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

    All depends what you want it for. Bigger costs more. For maintenance a top quality small Smart Charger will do for both & cost around R1,5k eg.

    Yamaha TT500 rebuild

    Cam running directly in the ally head, directly above the combustion chamber without an air passage between, was a Honda shortcoming from the first XLs. (I’m sure some will want to crucify me for this but it was very often a problem, although I’m sure better maintained bikes that had regular oil...

    Sorted DR350 cylinder head

    That link it doesn’t list the parts separately, so I think a used part or repairing are your only economical/sensible alternatives.

    1983 XT 600 Tenere ... Stator thing

    That looks like a worn out fuse holder. Replace it, SOLDER the connections & add a new fuse, you’ll be sorted.

    Sorted DR350 cylinder head

    That part is the rocker cover which bolts onto the actual head. It looks as though there is a bit broken out/off the side? Have you tried Suzuki for a new part.
