@Noneking , what hand guards do you use? I want to replace the standard plastics ones on mine.

This might be of interest to those using Continental TKC80 tyres. Looks like a recall on some of them. https://www.advpulse.com/adv-news/continental-issues-recall-on-tkc80-and-other-motorcycle-tires/

I was in a similar situation with my Oz land cruiser. It was registered in NSW. I was in Tanzania at the time. I went to the local road authority and had a road worthy inspection done. A friend in Sydney took an email copy of this with my authorisation to have the rego done. This was accepted...

Massive congratulations! I'm so pleased that all the hard work has paid off. Good look with the next few weeks and the exam preparation.

Looks like turn 10 might be a problem for a few riders tomorrow if they aren't careful. Sent from my SM-G975F using Tapatalk

Not sure if this was mentioned in earlier posts.  Tenere 700 World Raid. https://www.yamaha-motor.eu/nl/nl/products/motorcycles/adventure/explore.t-n-r-700-world-raid-2022/ Sent from my SM-G975F using Tapatalk

I paid 116 for the haarboch tribune seats for Sunday only at Assen.  Indeed a pricey outing. These are nice seats though,  at the end of the straight with nice views to all the corners following. Sent from my SM-G975F using Tapatalk

I have the option to get a set of the new Karoo 4s for my 890. I guess they are not yet available in SA? Has anyone seen any feedback yet? https://www.advpulse.com/adv-news/metzeler-karoo-4-dual-sport-tire-launched/ Sent from my SM-G975F using Tapatalk

When starting the bike,  it will run on one cylinder for about 60 seconds. Sounds like a misfire,  around 1000rpm. Then it 'pops' and you can smell fuel and runs fine after that.  Does not do it every time,  very random. Sent from my SM-G975F using Tapatalk

Not sure if the cold start issue on the 890 is also a problem for the owners in SA. I've been following a post on Advrider about this and similar to a lot of people registered my issue on the American NHTSA Road safety site. Via via, KTM Austria want my bike for testing.  Anyway, I've attached...

Really? Any links for that? Sent from my SM-G975F using Tapatalk

That would be an excellent trip,  for sure. For 2022, it would work well to plan a trip for the race in Thailand 02 October,  then do a bike trip to Malaysia for the race on 23 October. I really hope that the race will go ahead with public.  My 5 year old son will join me,  we went to Le Mans...

Tickets for MotoGP at Assen TT on sale already. @voorvel @Cracker I bought some today already, just incase you are interested. https://www.ttcircuit.com/en/events/tt-motogp/tickets/ Sent from my SM-G975F using Tapatalk

I would suggest that you make sure you get good professional advice on tax implications to consider.  The last thing you would want is an extra tax liability surprise at some point. Sent from my SM-G975F using Tapatalk

Well done Mrs Zog, I really am so pleased for you.  I hope this will reduce the stress levels a bit and give you some more 'me' time. Great job!! Sent from my SM-G975F using Tapatalk

We are here in SA now,  due to fly back to Netherlands on Tuesday.  Flight ban already in place,  we'll have to see what happens... I really wonder if it is a risk worth taking right now. Then again,  I know the feeling of not seeing family for a long time, exactly the reason why we are here...

All the best with the move. It will be tough at times,  but in sure you will be OK. One of the key reasons we left SA again after trying it out for a bit was limited opportunities for kids and even just deciding to have a child. Sent from my SM-G975F using Tapatalk

I remember doing these tracks 15 years ago in a 4x4. It was great fun going through gunshot creek. Sent from my SM-G975F using Tapatalk
