Keep the bike! Get new chommies

Jy koop nie n ktm vir fuel consumption nie. Klaar! Ook nie om tyres elke 10 000km te ruil nie. My 1290 VREET tyres op en suip soos n seerower. Ek ry hom soos n rental, die hele tyd en hy like dit. Hulle maak nou deesdae allerande battery bikes ,fietse , Toyota Prius sulke kak vir julle wat...

The guys are also rating the Guglatec filter very highly so there is another option to consider: https://www.guglatech.com/en/air/3-ktm-1290-sadv-2021-air-fiter-ultra4-mab003-21.html Check the youtube video on there very informative

No Rottweiler airbox upgrade system for the 21+ models. I had the complete system on my 990 and it really woke the bike up + much easier to clean the filter. I liked the sound. Now my plan was to get the system for my 1290 but still waiting and while Im waiting I have been hearing conflicting...

Jammer daar maak die fotos nou almal oop ek sien die tank. Prys enigsins onderhandelbaar?

Het jy nog die oorspronklike tank?

Diè bike is KWAAD!

Thanks Andrew. If you like the 1290 S, you gonna LOVE the R. I smile ear to ear every time I get off it and yes Im averaging about 3000km / rear tyre.

I have built 3 rally bikes or rathe converted normal plastic bikes into rally bikes and I cannot stress how expensive and most of all time consuming it is. You are constantly wrestling to make things work on a frame and suspension that was not designed to do so. Then there is the fuel tanks...

She is definitely a beautiful bike. I know Im gonna get shot to pieces for even thinking this but I cant help it. Wonder if one would be able to fit CRF tripple clamps, shocks and 21-18" wheels to this or even Africa Twin wheels & suspension. Am I the only Petrolkop wondering this? 😈

So? Is it for sale or not? Has it sold yet?

Mud is ok when you know when and where you gonna get it. The unexpected mud patches at higher speeds is what I dread. On the heavier adv bikes there really isn't much you can do the bike will go where it wants to go. Now here is where I keep getting it wrong. The front goes into a rut and the...

Congratz on the new boney and welcome to the dark side. I deal with Sedick ONLY when it comes to parts for my KTM's he has been at KTM Cape Town for ages and he understands me ( meaning don't fork me around and I wont fork you around). I bought my last KTM from RAD Jhb and it was not a happy...

Baie geluk

I moved to 1290 after owning a 950 SE and 2 x 990’s. Im happy with the 1290, its a beast but same as with a 990 you need to take charge of it and ride it with purpose otherwise it takes charge of you. Get rid of the stock steering damper and fit a Scotts or put a thicker viscosity oil in the...

Hoop da is hot nurses wat jou sommer gou weer gesond maak

08:00 this morning. Its not cold as in Tankwa cold but still its chilly and seems like she swings just fine.

Just fitted the new Lithium ion battery. BSLi - 08 Check the difference in weight! And best of all 300A CCA plenty of muscle. Had to re-route the + and - cables because the terminals on this battery is opposite than the oem. The - cable JUST made it in fact I might make up a new one that is...

Spoke to Cecil Penny this morning. There is a Lithium replacement battery available for the oem Yuasa YTZ14S. Its pricey but I dont want to be begging people for a jump start early mornings again. Will need to re-rout my cables but should be able to make it work. I will post some pics once I...
