I bought a SAE connector with eyelet lugs like that, at Makro some time back. Went back for another one a few weeks later and they had non of those, so I bought one with crocodile clamps, cut them off, crimped and soldered eyelets on with heatshrink to insulate and stress-relief the joint.

Lots of phonecalls but no-one has come to take a look at the bike yet.

The 850 I believe live has some serious engine problems with many being replaced under warranty, some more than once. What happens after the warranty expires? That is why I went for a 2015 F800GSA with which I am very happy. The only downside, the front rim is made from cheddar cheese and...

Whete do you guys buy these?

MapOut is only on IOS, not on Android. There are a ton of GPX viewers on Android. If you want to use it for route planning, navigation, import/export GPX, then the best Android option is Locus Map

I pillioned my wife on it a few times. No problem at all

Its a surprisingly capable bike and effortless to use in technical terrain.

Bump. Too many scamsters responding to my Facebook Marketplace ad. I would rather deal with a member from this forum.

KTM 390 Adventure, 2020 model, 53 600km (with the 2022 modes upgrade). This dual-purpose bike is upgraded to the perfect commuter, but on weekends it will take you on amazing adventures. Powerful enough for the freeway, but the fun starts when you get to the dirt. It handles sand, mud, clay...

My experience with having my seat trimmed down, might help you make an informed decision. I have the F800 GS Adventure version, with the high seat (there are two different seat options for this bike, with 30mm difference). I could only get my tiptoes onto the ground, unless I shifted my ***...

2010 model. Stunning bike. I am so tempted. He also has an immaculate 660Z Tenere for sale for R85k with 25k 0n the clock, on FB Marketplace.

Pour about two tablespoons of petrol into the tyre. Lay it flat on the ground. Throw a lit match into the gap between the rim and tyre. BOOM! Instant bead set. Now you can pump up the tyre with even the slowest compressor. Just have either a carpet, or a pile of sand nearby, in case the rubber...

We have an active WhatsApp group, Relaxed Adventure Rides, based in CT with about 350 members, which you are welcome to join. Send me a WhatsApp for the link. See my number below. Then we also have another non-chat group, only admins can post, and only invites to rides and events, called Adv...

Create a route by any means you can, or just import a gpx file. Make it visible on screen. Tap the button that zooms the map to your current location. Tap it once more, which then rotates the map in the direction you are travelling. What could possibly be simpler?

I see no way to load T4A into Locus Map. If anyone can achieve this, please detail the workflow to implement this.

Actually you can add points of interest, in different colours with different icons and names, and put them all into one "tour". The filing system is amazing. Best to work through the manual and tey out each feature as you read about it.

Hiya Paul, we met in Die Hel. Looks like you are having quite an African adventure! Are you writing a blog anywhere about your travels?

I am looking for recommendations for adv bike-friendly camping venues, not too far from Cape Town. I know about Beaverlac, Balies Gat and Moon River. Any recommendations are welcome, but ideally they must be able to supply braai packs, firewood, and possibly cooldrinks or maybe beer/wine. Go….
