Dakar need a good battery and good connections on the terminals. If possible get a new battery or get this one to more than 12VDC. You then need to start it and see what the charge voltage is. It should by above 14VDC when revved to about 2000rpm.

Carl did a new cover for a KLE500, made the template and repaired the sponge and fitted the cover for less than R1000-00!

Google maps show them as legit. Call Alzu feeds next door and ask if MC auto is still operating.......or a Secunda, Trichardt dog can perhaps sniff around there..

She has about 65k on. (Correction 68.5k km).It still can happen to newer bikes according to my research on the interwebs and forums. '13-'14 more likely though.

No worries. The labour is one thing, BUT the eyewatering thing is the new stator... To say the least, my trips for the foreseeable future will be the office run 😔.

Did a trip to the Lowveld over the long weekend in April, all honkey dorie, arrived home and parked for a week. Started her and battery low warring.....Charged the battery but never displayed more than 12,4V. Did some basic troubleshooting and took her to BMW Motorad Centurion....they confirm...

😟 My mid 2015 rotor she is faulty.... Is it advisable to get the stator rejuvenated by a specialist stator wizard?

Very nice!! You need to speak with Carl in Centurion about the correct way to do the seat cover. He is very good. PM me if you need his number. That sound is awesome, get ear plugs....No Noise or something.

The Bridgestone TW's as listed above is discontinued.:(

Which website did you find these Dux?

Sirac's are not available anymore. What cost effective tyres can be considered as an alternative? KLE500 doing more tar than gravel but needs to drive a sandy road to the farm where he stays.

If you deal with Petri and his band of effective assistants there is no worries, it was a total pleasure buying a bike that they facilitated the deal....just saying.

Word of warning. My BIL had a similar situation with a car dealer in GP. He mentioned on social platforms that the guys has "skelm streke". This guy lawyer-ed up and my BIL had to pay R20k in damages for calling him what he is. ....Metal note to self, never buy a bike south of the Juksei river...

They open new slots on Tuesdays. Look for the smaller towns, Heidelberg, Nigel, Carltonville, you get the idea. Your window of opertunity is small to get a slot. Best of luck.

Hi Jughead, I got units from China as per your photo, 3 units at about R650 landed. Programmed and fitted no issues.

Send him a SMS with 10 digit access code and 6 digit pin. Send second SMS that you type in R3500 and he need to refund you.... Would like to see footage of him standing at the ATM.....priceless.
