Nevermind, I bought a conventional lead acid AGM battery. Motobatt equivalent because it was in stock. https://www.motohardware.com.au/mbtz14s-motobatt-quadflex-12v-battery

My battery is almost 5 years old and is starting to feel old and tired. Can I replace the standard lead acid AGM battery (Yuasa YTZ14S) on the 2017 AT with a lithium ion battery without changing the charging system?

No clunking from the seat. It looks like it was worn head bearings after all. The dealer inspected and replaced them, and I have not heared any clunking noises from the front end since then. I had the front forks serviced at the same time. It was time after almost 5 years. I also had the...

That is interesting Mr Fox... I have not thought of the seat, but will check it out. I get the clunk consistently when the bike was on the centerstand (mostly unweighted front wheel), and then ride down the small curb from my driveway onto the road. It feels like it's coming from high up on the...

Dankie Chris, dis goeie raad... Ek hoor die geluid juis as a hard rem, of as ek deur 'n gat ry. Dit kan heel moontlik die remme wees...

Has anyone adjusted or replaced steering head bearings on the AT? I get a clunking sound from the front end these days, which I suspect is caused by play on the steering head bearings. I do not feel any notchiness at the steering center position, which is usually a tell-tale sign of worn...

'n Paar naby kiekies... Na nog meer tyd, en nog 'n paar fyn instellings moet ek sê geniet ek hierdie shock baie. Teer of grond, hy werk so goed dat ek gou van hom vergeet.

Ek het jarre gelede ook eendag my gat gesien op so 'n einste snotterige grondpad tussen Greylingstad en Devon. Gelukkig niks seergemaak nie, en daar was geen skade aan die bike nie (1200GS). Die agterwiel het skielik besluit om voor te ry...  ;) Sterkte met die knie se herstel.

I still use the GS Pro boots. 2nd pair. They're about 8 years old and still going strong.

Hey Bozo, yes I’ve been through Dargo before on the way to the Vic high country, but with the car. I’ve seen a number of ride reports of that area. Remote and some challenging mountain tracks, looks like fun on a small bike. I suspect the AT will be too much bike and a handful on many of those...

Ja-nee hy werk nog mooi!  :thumleft:

Na 2.5 wasse kry ek nogsteeds modder op plekke.

Circumnavigation of Blue Rock Dam. Early December I was bored one weekend, and studied the map for fresh areas to explore. I noticed a possible dirt road around Blue Rock Dam, about half an hours ride from me. The dam was build as a water source for a coal fired power station in the...

So... ek het uiteindelik tyd gekry om met die shock te speel. Ek kon maklik 30% "sag" instel, met 12/60 clicks preload. Met die OEM shock was dit nie moontlik nie, selfs met 100% preload. Ek is so 105 kg met vol ****-suit en MX boots, Camelbak, 1 liter water, en 'n paar tools. Ek ry gewoonlik...

Die Tractive shock is vandag uiteindelik geinstalleer! Ek het net 'n vinnige draai gaan ry, die lang pad huistoe, en hy voel goed! Myle beter as die OEM. Ek is bly ek het gewag vir die 95 N/mm spring. Hy voel lekker ferm. Soos Goue Lokkies van haar bed hou, nie te hard, en ook nie te sag. ...

I embedded the video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=whYAwn0hvms&t=834s That is nuts! :eek7:  :ricky:

I had a 2004 GS for 2 years, 16000km - 35000 km. FSH at dealer. The first year it ran great. The second year I noticed substantial pre-detonation/pinging, especially during hot Gauteng summer days in top gear. It also developed a nasty gearbox niggle, where it would "fall out of gear" on...

Camelbak Mule 3l, probably 15+ years old. I initially used it a lot for MTB, but the last 5 years it has been my motorcycle daypack. Unbelievably, the bag itself is still in perfect condition after all these years, but I recently replaced the bladder.

Ek het nou die shock teruggekry nadat die ouens 'n stywer 95 N/mm spring opgesit het. Hy word volgende week geinstalleer.

Typical winter ride in my area if you venture off the gravel and into the deep forest tracks. Not my video, a bit too adventurous for my taste…  :lol8: https://youtu.be/BUmDGqzaDcQ
