    Guess who I just bumped into ?...............Noraly

    I've not followed the latest series but I see she changed the Gopro mount on her Arai. Does anyone know which model she uses now? Looks neat. All I can get locally in terms of a chin mount is a strap-on and I don't very much like strap-ons ;-)

    Bike prices on classifieds. Asking price / Selling price / Negotiate?

    With regards to bike prices on classifieds, half the adds are asking far more than the market is willing to pay. Some will admit that and lower the price and others will go as far as marking it sold and then placing a new add with an adjusted price. Some are open to discussion. I do my research...

    Potential new rider assistance

    I completely agree with the previous comments and wish to add: anyone willing to commute in GP should have no problem riding to any destination outside the cities. While learning I would have started on the open road and then gradually eased into commuting which requires far more skill. The NC...

    Seweweekspoort

    That's a most enjoyable little add-on to the route. Not too technical and not too long to be a problem. We normally go that way on the way in or out. PS: It is slow technical in some areas but should be doable by anyone that's not a complete beginner.

    XR 650 L refurb / Restore

    Are you simply planning a refurb? While stripped there are some frame reinforcements you can/should do. Happy to discuss and/or share pictures.

    POLISH OR DUBBIN YER NEW BOOTS

    I have a pair of Sidis from 2013 I still use on the XR. I clean and apply Dubbin after each ride and they still look like new after 10 years. I do the same with all my other leather boots and shoes and I get at least 5-10 years and often have to resole. I've never had a problem with stitching.

    Personally I have no issue with swearing in general…I do often and consistently regardless whether its Sunday or Monday. There are however some words which offers deep insight into one’s character especially when it’s a word you do not use in your day to day conversations. My ex MIL grew up on...

    For this reason I like observing people being startled like in this video. What comes out their mouths at that moment is normally a true reflection of what fills their thoughts.

    In my line of work we often perform root cause analyses for this exact reason. There is only one proximate cause to the event but generally several contributing factors. The following definition assists: Proximate cause (direct cause) - occurs immediately prior to the incident; directly results...

    Smurf vs Lucifer

    Well…it has the cafe racer option for coffee shop cruising and the bobber option for being a hooligan. Commuter is a bit of a stretch :)

    And finally I managed to finish the bobber tailpiece. My 3 in 1 bike is complete.

    Smurf vs Lucifer

    So 2023 started with a bang but I did manage to drop the bobber tail piece at the painter last week and collected it earlier this week. After sorting out the lawn this morning I spent some time shaping the LED strips to fit properly. Now I just need to pick up some stick light **** double sided...
