Was that an offer? 😜

Being in the Platteland, I had reservations about support, but last week received good service from Percy at Ducati in CT. Put me in touch with his parts supplier in Joburg, quote received same day, costs reasonable, and they courier to my door. Happiness. To answer your questions: Belts -...

Duc 800 Scrambler

They do, to a point - but with the arm being sharply angled and a very small flat area under the axle area, if it starts slipping, the whole shebang ends up on the floor

Morning all Are there any vendors either bringing in, or manufacturing, something similar to the Abba bike stand or bike lift? Looking for a solution for a bike with a sloping swingarm and no place to attach bobbins. The axle shaft is hollow, so a quick fix to get the bike off the ground is a...

Met him at Tankwa tented camp about 7 years ago. He and a pal spent the whole day wrestling GS1200's through the sand towards the Tankwa reserve. Every 10 metres was punctuated by an S-squiggle, large flat area with lots of footprints as they lifted these agricultural implements (again) and...

I delayed viewing the bike, pending research into support options, and it's no longer listed for sale. Bugger. Was prepared to pull the trigger on R40k worth of tools and a rexxer too, there are no dealers where I live. I'll wait for another. Is yours the keyless start model?

I shot the stealers an email re the availability of belts and shims for a 2004 'strada and they didn't even bother to reply, can't see their network expanding any time soon with that level of support.

Can one insert an assembled stretcher through the opening?

10k USD bikes sell here for R200k plus, so 7k USD equates to R140k. Still interested?

044 272 5623 082 862 7306 Best drive, across the street from Klein Karoo Agri, has a stash of old bike tires. Maybe not open on a public holiday but they may have a breakdown / standby guy available, worth a shot

What do the stealers ask for a service with valve clearance and belts at 12 thousand?

Probably after the scheduled October price increases  >:D

Agreed, good choice, the T7 is an awesome piece of kit. It's a pity that saffers have to eat a one third price premium over what customers in the states pay. 200k equates to more than 13 thousand dollars, makes my eyes water...

Leave off the fancy screens, computers, traction control, riding modes, ABS, DCT and all the other girly bits that only the posers need, and they might get close.  :pot:

Get this one: 500cc parallel twin with a 270 degree crank 6 speed box with close ratios in 1-3 and a comfortable cruise of 130km/h hand guards, screen, luggage rack and bash plate as standard 25km/liter with a 17 liter tank Lightweight slip-on that sounds good Sprung properly for a 90kg rider...

Great. Sell up the stock and let's have a look see at the rally - the Karoo is a big place with a 7l fuel tank

Tubes might be more of a challenge in the dorp. If you're inbound from the west, first cluster of shops on the right has a bottle store, Weshandelshuis (spelling?) cafe type of thing - accross the road is A1 bikes, operating from a house. They might give you some leads. Patches and glue etc...

Pit Stop Spares, next to Nissan on the main road. The old Midas (non-franchised now), across the road from Pit Stop. If you need a quick charge with a conditioner, shout out

Stalled, then wouldn't start again?
