The neatest tooltube I have seen, was a dummy exhaust muffler on the opposite side to the real muffler. It looked like a twin exhaust system, except for the telltale of no carbon deposits at the stinger.

The F800 Adventure version has nowhere to mount the popular plastic tooltube. Where can I view this 304 S/S tooltube? Any pics? Another potentially popular product might be a water bottle holder for quick access. I do not enjoy anything on my back while riding, so no camelback. I have an...

Any update on conditions after recent rains?

That is not the Droëlandskloof road, it starts 3.5km South of it. On the map below, Droëlandskloof is in red, while the road he marked is in Purple. It does eventually join up with Droëlandskloof, but its a private road and not accessible. BTW, reading the comments on the Droëlandskloof, the new...

So much confusion about lithium. Let me try to clarify a few issues. You get Lithium, and you get Lithium that is very very different. Lithium Ion and Lithium Polymer (Li-Ion & LiPo) are NOT used on bikes or cars, unless they have an integrated and sophisticated BMS. The Lithium batteries...

This coming weekend we are doing a three day ride, Saturday to Monday in the Tankwa Karoo. Overnighting at Bike X-Cape both nights. Michelle’s delicious Durban Lamb Curry Potjie Saturday night. Braai Sunday night. Saturday breakfast at Hillbillys just before Ceres. Sunday breakfast at Tankwa...

Only saw this now. Will contact you via WA

Yes, exactly. That is the route we always take, cutting across after Bergsig. Dewald, the semi-technical section at the Eastern end is enjoyable but a bit short. We have taken newbies through there, just a bit slower for them. If its wet, the last 100 meters can be slippery mud, but its short...

Thanks Petri for superb service, organising financing for my buyer. Service like yours is truly rate these days.

I cannot believe that the article does not even mention Honda or the Africa Twin. Really? i would love to know sho wrote that article.

That plastic mounting bracket will not survive your first gravel ride.

While talking about unicorn bikes… whatever happened about the Rieju Aventura 500 Legend with the Honda 500 engine? It was all the talk and bees knees at EICMA but nothing since then. It looks exactly like what we would expect a baby Africa Twin to be. I was rather excited about that one.

Service interval of only 5000km?

Another supposedly dead keen buyer kept me on a line for way too long now, he never turned up to view the bike, despite several appointments that he missed… every single one. So I told him to get lost in no uncertain terms. it is back on the market once again. Bump… again.

Next Monday I shall identify as female, looking for riding pants, lol. Also want to buy my wife a helmet. She wears the same size as me…

Strange that you have been taught to stand up with straight legs and to grip the seat between your legs. Is that the norm on offroad courses? Perhaps I have just forgotten what was taught on my first intro to offroad riding, however I average 40 000km a year, mostly offroad and found that what...

I am selling my KTM 390 Adventure, advertising on a few different platforms. Every time my ad gets renewed on Facebook or Gumtree, I get a call from this guy who does not realise that he has called me before. I am sure he is a scamster, but I cannot figure out exactly how he intents to carry...

Every time my ad gets renewed on Facebook or Gumtree, I get a call from this guy who does not realise that he has called me before. I am sure he is a scamster, but I cannot figure out exactly how he intents to carry out his scam. Perhaps someone here knows. It is always the exact same story...

It is too, yet no takers. But no shortage of scamsters responding to my Facebook Marketplace ad. The usual "stuck on an oilrig" scam and "my brother has a transport company, he will fetch the bike".
