offroad-offcourse has a video or two of the Voge. I quite enjoy his stuff. One video compares it to the Honda.

Posted this in the XL500 thread as well, but first NX500 video I see on my YouTube suggestions...

@TVB Did you end up replacing the rear shock spring?

I'm considering buying a Zumo XT at some point. They seem to be slowly dropping in price (see them at R8500 now), but that's still a lot of money so if I can find a decent 2nd hand one and save some money I'd be happy. If anyone has a Zumo to sell, please let me know. Although the XT would be...

Remembered there was one for sale last year. I know nothing about the bike or seller. Been a couple of months, but it's still showing "For Sale". https://wilddog.net.za/threads/bmw-g650-xmoto-motard.278013/

After some more kms on the bike, I have some questions for those that have fitted risers... How much rise did you add? Is there enough cable available? Standard risers, or those that move the bar further away? Are there downsides to the risers? I'll stick with the stock bar (for now), so I know...

I thought I'd hold off on suspension upgrades, as the suspension is not bothering me that much yet, and replacement shocks are expensive, but this might be an interesting option. :unsure: Is this then just a replacement of the shock spring? Standard "harder" spring, or are they based on rider...

Congrats. Hope it works for you.

So I've had the bike for just over a week. Have put about 320km on it (avg about 34km/l) mostly back-roads, only a couple of kms dirt, will take on more dirt roads in the coming weeks. Sharing some photos and thoughts (from a short time with it). Yes, the suspension will need to be upgraded at...

Picked mine up this afternoon. Super happy. Pushing it around the yard and into the garage felt like it was a bicycle compared to my previous 1200. Was concerned about the suspension and power. Went for a short ride. Concerns are gone. At 95kg I'm sure I'll find the suspension limiting, but for...

I guess we shouldn't really make light of the situation.

I'm sure someone will "match" that suggestion.

I've never had any interest in traveling to India, but her last trip (and MADTV had a couple of episodes in northern India if I remember correctly now) made me reconsider. Interesting people and awesome landscapes. I found the Itchy episode yesterday more irritating/infuriating than...

Agreed (assuming Nigeria)

Stock availability

Thanks for the responses. It is Bikers Warehouse, but the question here was not due to concerns specific to them, as I assumed they were authorized resellers (thanks PierreM), it was more a matter of whether there are any benefits buying directly from a specific brand's dealership. Hopefully...

Was wondering whether there are any downsides or potential issues buying a new bike from an "independent" bike store rather than directly from a Suzuki/KTM/Honda dealership. I'm assuming a place like Biker's Warehouse is an authoriser reseller, so there shouldn't be any issues, right?

I assume it's in-store only?
