    Yamaha T7 - No longer a Concept

    Oukloof in the middle of the Beaufort West/Merweville/Fraserburg triangle is a good option

    Central / South Lesotho

    I've also done that route a few years ago, but on a plastic, agree that it is not for bigger bikes.

    Kove 800X reveal day Saturday 14th September - The Bike Shed - All invited, come for a boerie roll on this special day.

    I should be at the bike launch on the 14th, on my Kove 450, which should be purring like a kitten (or growling like a lion?) after its 2000km service and suspension mods. Collecting my bike from The Bike Shed this week where they have been looking after it on my behalf. It required a couple of...

    Kove 450 Rally launch in Cape Town

    Some photos of our recent Koakoland/Damaraland trip in Namibia with Specialised Adventures. The Kove performed flawlessly

    Thoughts on the Kove 450 Rally whilst riding through the Richtersveld

    No problems at all. On the last day from Brandberg White Lady Lodge to Usakos my downloaded GPS data showed speeds up to 154 km/h on the dirt roads. It truly is a magnificent machine

    Thoughts on the Kove 450 Rally whilst riding through the Richtersveld

    Rob, just came back from Namibia (Kaokoland and Damaraland) with my Kove. I'm slightly more on the wrong side of 100kg (115) and the bike can most certainly handle it.

    Wanted Looking for post 2020 690 or 701

    Noted, but for my 5 cents worth, I just battle to find a fit for the 690/701. For adventure riding the tank is too small, for trail riding it has to compete with the 500, which is much lighter. It's not an enduro bike, too heavy.

    Wanted Looking for post 2020 690 or 701

    Martin, read BuRP's feedback on the Kove 450 after his recent travels, in the company of 690's and 701's.

    Mooses (Honda 300 Rally)

    Runner can do it, but mine was done at Just Bike Tyre in Midrand. Otherwise ask BuRP, he does his himself

    Mooses (Honda 300 Rally)

    I tried it, but no thanks. If you have a tyre tear, you've had it. Difficult to install and a nuisance as well, with constant leaks around the rim.

    Mooses (Honda 300 Rally)

    Interesting to note the various responses concerning mousses. My personal experience is that a well lubed mousse will last the life of at least 2 back tyres and 3 font tyres. I have mousses on my KTM 500 as well as my Kove 450 Rally. Last year in Kaokoland I have travelled at speeds between 130...

    Did a nice weekend outride (500 odd km's) in the West Coast region on my Kove 450 Rally. Lovely riding from my home in Langebaan. Really enjoying the bike.
