    Dakar 2024

    I hear what you say, Orange or nothing 🤣👍🏼 But seriously, I was thinking the other day about the past where there would be about 6-8 factory KTM’s and Cyril and Marc had “water carrier” riders following them, who used to do things like donate an engine on the marathon stage etc. I thought to...

    Dakar 2024

    I support KTM and all the riders and drivers from SA. Some guy from Botswana on a Hero does not really get any special support from me. I am such a brand whore I don’t even support Husqvarna of Gas Gas ha ha.

    WARR BASH GROUP REPORT AND PICS - PLEASE POST IT HERE

    I didn’t participate in the WARR this year unfortunately, but I was just wondering if anyone could say if the lodge where you stayed and the riding areas are the same as the bivouac and riding areas that we did on the marathon stage of Amageza 2016? Looks a lot the same.

    2021-22 KTM 1290 SUPER ADVENTURE R - FRONT RIM PROBLEMS

    Ek het hulle nie oorweeg oor hulle nie tubeless is nie, en ook nie omdat die TPMS sensor nie op hulle pas nie.

    2021-22 KTM 1290 SUPER ADVENTURE R - FRONT RIM PROBLEMS

    Dit spyt my om te rapporteer dat ek dit reggekry het om WEEREENS my voorste rim te beskadig, my duur after-market Alpina rim voor (baie mooi om na te kyk, en het darem die voordele dat dit tubeless bly en die TPMS werk nog) was toe nie 'n 100% oplossing nie. Die skade is wel minder as die skade...

    1290 Aftermarket Exhaust

    I have a Powerparts Akro pipe on my 1290 and I am very happy. Getting the DB-killer out can be tricky, but my KTM dealer actually has a jig that they used to drill the hole at exactly the right place to get it out. After-market pipes on these bikes is not about extra power for me - if 160 hp...

    Mac Afric Compressor Opinion

    I have had a 24 liter Mac Afric compressor for general bike and gun maintenance for 6 years, not a hiccup. In Lockdown I tried to service it’s oil, just for something to do, but I gave up ha ha, still going strong.

    2021-22 KTM 1290 SUPER ADVENTURE R - FRONT RIM PROBLEMS

    I think this is a simple case of RTFM! From the video, there is a comparison of what bike manufacturers actually say in the manual about letting tyres down offroad. It is recommended by KTM for the 790 (I used to do it on my 790), but not for the 1290, which is probably why when I did it on my...

    2021-22 KTM 1290 SUPER ADVENTURE R - FRONT RIM PROBLEMS

    Wow, that YouTube reference is really valuable, I think it totally changes my thinking about needing to let down tyres on gravel or sand. Here it is if anyone is interested:

    Calling on suspension specialists (Xplor Pro & Ohlins) - Enduro bikes

    Thanks man. Ek het nog glad nie enige verstellings gemaak nie, en sover het ek net een keer gery met die nuwe set-up, maar my heel eerste indruk is dat dit nie so plush voel soos wat ek gedink het dit gaan nie. Maar, en hierdie is 'n groot MAAR, die bike se controllability is totaal anders as my...
