For the sake of context I'll bore you with a single paragraph. My mother recently confided in my wife re her childhood dream to have a picnic in a forest. As she also grew up in the Kalahari so I can understand why. Following some pretty serious medical issues late last year all of these...

I am looking to ship 3X DS bikes to Saudi Arabia or Cairo if indeed less painful? team Gazoo says they're full for the December run. The plan is to use them here for a while and then ride them back home to SA. We are weighing the cost of buying here, limited options and the general stuffery...

So, the old covid has thrown another salvo of f#ck&ry our way... I have to now be out of the motherland before returning to the fun factory called the middle earth (spelled east) - Uganda looks like a good option, was in Kenya for a month in May and not looking to get "al shabaabed" in Ethiopia...

Anyone possibly involved with UB leisure or have contact e-mail of their owners / management?

I am looking at doing a west coast roadtrip with the family. As I have not been anywhere near the west coast north of Paternoster in 10 years i'd like to hop around the spots from kleinsee to elandsbaai and then swing inward to Citrusdal. On the bike i'd just wing it but as mein fuhrer will be...

I am looking for a CRF 70 for my 6 year old son. will look at 110 and TTR as well.  Anyone know of any leads please. Bike's final destination will be Upington so I will need to arrange transport / lift as well.

I am looking for something bigger for my laaitie. He's quite comfortable with stopping and going through the veld at a steady 40km/h. I can see that he is aware of what is around and in front of him so the fuhrer has given her permission to upgrade. My application was however denied  :'( He had...

Advice needed Yesterday my colleague asked me re a substantial delay to his indicators going on in the cold. 2013 XR 650L with 34kkm. Good overall condition. I have seen it in action this morning. Literally 500m delay before the light flashes after flipping the switch when you pull away. I...

Wife: OK, vlugte is gebook vir ons 3. (her and the kids). Hoekom moet jy werk oor die tyd? Almal gaan weg. Me: It's what I do - I have to keep the gears turning when everyone else is on the beach. Wife: Ek weet vlugte gaan baie duur wees ma kyk of jy net vir 'n week kan kom. (insert Employer...

I need some advice. I have been riding for many years and have transitioned from Fox forma pro to Fox comp, then Thor biltz then TCX shorty. I have also made the mistake of buying DMD boots last year for 2K - lesson learnt, they are total k@k. My gardener now looks quite butch met sy biker(ish)...

Have to laugh... Colleague of mine is now gatvol of his lunchbox and toebroodjies falling off of his makeshift luggage rack thingy. The computer that needed a new screen was certainly the last straw... Looking for a top box - new or second hand that will fit or be slightly modified to fit an...

I have an opportunity to buy my Quest bike so I need to let go of my commute bike as gazetted martial ruling number #964 states: “Thou shall not buy another bike” I take good care of my bikes and don't mind to spend extra to keep them tip top. I was keeping this one because i like it until I...

Does anyone know if the Wunderlich handlebar bags are universal or if there is a model specific one for an 800XC? I live in the sticks so I want to be sure before I order. I'm looking for one on the forum as well. I have looked at locally made ones at the triumph dealership but they look a...

I am looking for front indicators for my 800 XC. i live in the sticks so i have to go to midas or get online. dealer not really an option until the next service in two months. I suspect the originals were over tightened and the rubber was damaged to some degree. After some time and vibration it...

It seems my previous post was unsuccessful. I have posted my XR again. This time at a steal. Bike has done 20000km. Extras are worth a conservative R15K. It would do wonders for my mirrage and for that matter the longevity of my biking career if I can sell this bike fast. That leaves me with...

I am planning to do a trip in July to Swaziland (in at the North and out at Jozini/Pongola at the South) and then on to Kosi Bay and down the coast to Sodwana. maybe a dive or two along the way. Has anyone done the "coastal road" for want of a word recently. My comrades have 1200's and I fear...

Hi fellow dogs Got introduced to the forum by a colleague. Tagsey1. I am simply amazed at how well this thing actually works, still learning the ropes though. Been biking since my early teens opi plaas on a Honda MT 50 and a Suziki RV 90. What a machine that fatcat was... Progressed to a...
