    The CRF300L thread

    Geluk met die nuwe Africa Single @Dorsland ! Het die Africa Twin nou sy dinges gesien, of is daar nogsteeds plek vir hom in die waenhuis?

    Honda Africa Twin Pics

    My Africa Twin turned 7 in June. I bought it new in 2017, and the ODO now stands on 36000 km. Then: Now: It has been a fantasic machine to explore the winding roads and forests in the area. I have no plans to "upgrade" to the latest and greatest. As the saying goes: "Love is that feeling...

    Adventure helmets......just an image thing?

    I bought it only for the matching colour scheme of course... 😍 On a serious note, here is an interesting perspective on the culture and mentality inside the Arai factory!

    Africa Twin Service

    Mine is a 2017 manual, at 36k km... but not for sale! 😄 Nothing much goes wrong in my experience. Routine stuff, like I had to replace fork seals and replaced notchy steering head bearings a few years ago. Front brake pads are next on the list, and I suspect a new chain and sprockets are due...

    Securing your GPS from falling out of mount.

    Tethers/lanyards/toutjies from the device around the frame or handlebar. The Montana and Inreach have tie-down points, no need for glue in my case. I've never had them fall out of the mounts, but this is cheap insurance.

    How many of You commute?

    I used to commute daily for 12+ years between Roodepoort/Bryanston and Centurion/Bryanston. Mostly to save time in traffic. Nowadays I commute between the bedroom and study by foot, or take the train into the city for office days. It is much cheaper, safer, more comfortable and stress-free on...

    Where has your bike taken you today?

    I rode day 1 with a local group who went on a 4 day ride. Most guys were on 400-650 class singles, and the AT was by far the porkiest. It was hard work to get through the thick rutted clay bog holes and steep rocky climbs, but I somehow came through unscathed. Near the origin of the Yarra...

    Where has your bike taken you today?

    Solo ride on a beautiful spring afternoon. Found a new road through one of the nearby forests. Slight mishap with a trail-side tube change just before dusk, far from home...

    The BMW X-Challenge Thread

    Yes I had a similar experience. Engine cranked easily, but would not fire up. I somehow suspected the battery because it was still the OEM and was a few years old. The new battery solved it. My conclusion was the old battery had enough juice to pull the starter, but not enough to pull the...

    The BMW X-Challenge Thread

    I had this on my XChallenge years ago. I replaced the battery and the problem disappeared.

    Where has your bike taken you today?

    I took a varsity buddy from ZA on a forest/plantation ride. First dirt ride on his "new" secondhand adventuratised Suzuki DR650. We ended the day at a small town pub for a beer and a burger https://maps.app.goo.gl/c6ZXonk6mEQu56Cj7?g_st=ic

    Where has your bike taken you today?

    High spot in the Yarra Ranges mountains, east of Melbourne. I was expecting to see some snow on the ground, but no luck. It was 4'C at 14h00 though... https://maps.app.goo.gl/kF8m3wxGA9MmXHQa6?g_st=ic

    KTM 990 Adv Hand Guards

    I have the Barkbusters with Storm guards. I like them, and they can take a beating. Had the BB VPS guards too but they are too small and don't provide enough protection from the elements for my mostly cool and wet climate.
