    Ear Plugs for bikes.

    And I have found these throwaways the best. In my case I have to put them in with the large part inwards facing my eardrum but they really block a lot of noise. https://www.fowkes.co.za/product/earplugs-cordless-disposable-green-sold-per-each

    Ear Plugs for bikes.

    My solution actually belongs on the Pooratech thread but it will probably get lost there. After using Waxsol I use this nose cleaner thing with lukewarm water to flush the wax out of my ears. Easy to do and gentle on the eardrum...

    690 external fuel filter options

    I have done a similar mod as @Operator but I did remove the internal tank filter so as to remove one point of failure (or a more regular recurring maintenance job).

    Uploading Garmin 680T tracks to Google Earth?

    If you upload a route and you stray of your intended path than the route will update to a new route (or at least ask if you want to change depending on the setting on your GPS). When you convert your route to tracks before uploading then the track on your GPS will not change if you are no...

    Just beautiful bikes - designs, mods and graphics

    That's merely a half collection. You lack a white one and an orange one.

    MotoGP 2024

    But just when BB33 gives you hope in one session (albeit bloody late) he then takes it away solidly in the next 2 sessions. I give up! I think next year I won't subscribe to Timingpass anymore. I spent most of the session looking at my laptop hoping to see some good sectors from BB33 instead of...

    MotoGP 2024

    That was such an inspirational bike that I painted my bike in a similar colour scheme in the mid 1990s.

    Hydraulic oil for bottle jack

    My jack had the same problem after topping it up. I just ended up bleeding it a few times and a bit of pumping up and down and then it was all sorted. Like Danie, I used ATF.

    Cam Wear. Any examples in SA?

    You have some valid points there. I will reduce the oil change intervals some more, it is such a small incremental cost.

    Cam Wear. Any examples in SA?

    But surely when you ride and the oil gets hot any petrol that was in there will effectively get boiled off?

    Uploading Garmin 680T tracks to Google Earth?

    I import my tracks from the Montana into basecamp and then export them as KML. Those you can just upload into Google earth. Nothing fancy needed.

    MotoGP 2024

    I think your last sentence should read: Marc also testiculated" "Bulega right of the track the other day.... And Maverick's comment? Don't know about that guy. Sounds to me that he is already making excuses for next year. He is so fast when everything works but you will never win a...

    KTM Durban - Contractual Termination

    I don't know what is in the contract but they probably owe no one an explanation, not even the business affected by this. This doesn't mean that I don't feel for the guys who have lost their agency. It's crap when your business gets upended. And time will tell if this is a good decision from...

    KTM Durban - Contractual Termination

    The thing that I struggle to understand after having read through this thread is why people think KTM owes you an explanation. KTM SA makes a business decision and that's it. Their business, their decision.

    MotoGP 2024

    The reason that the "kitty litter" jokes have stopped is because of the rumours that the 2025 Hondas will be so slow that when they fall in the middle of a corner they will come to a dead stop before exceeding track limits.
