    R.I.P. CYCLOPS.

    Ag no man - this is really sad news. Enjoyed a few cold ones with him at the KZN WD Bash at Imbabala a few years back. He seemed to get very quiet on the forum over the last while. Condolences to his family. RIP.

    GPS Cradle

    The Chigee AIO-5 has been getting rave reviews all round. At Eicma the Chigee AIO-6 was released but it looks like the only difference between the two is a slightly bigger screen on the 6 (afaik). The Chigee is simply a mirror of your phone - no risk of ruining your phone (sun/rain/vibration)...

    BMW GS1250 Bluetooth connection and Connected ride issues

    So picked up me 'new-to-me' 1250GSA earlier this week, downloaded the App, connected the phone and Sena to the bike (that was easy!). From the above should I now un-pair the phone and the Sena leaving me with bike-to-phone and bike-to-Sena? I still need to get the cradle but at 5k from BMW...

    Kyk, 'n groot dam!

    @Dorsland, thanks for a fantastic story. We're on our way down to Gariep in 2 weeks time and cannot wait...... Afrikaans is such a lekker language - when boervrou gets the bl*ksemin with me she gooi's the taal flatout.....and then I'll start laughing and tell her to start from the...

    Kyk, 'n groot dam!

    .....and that's even when you exclude the coastline of Vanderkloof Dam....just up the road from Gariep.... the second-largest dam in South Africa (in volume), having the highest dam wall in the country at 108 metres (354 ft).......

    Spirit DSV 3 opinion please

    My pillion says that the Spirit modular helmet is the best fitting helmet she's ever had - I enjoyed my DSV2 as a commuting helmet - it is noisier that most helmets but I like hearing my surrounds when I commute....at that price point I think its a good helmet.

    KTM Durban - Contractual Termination

    Couple of years back I drove all the way from Jhb to the KTM dealership in Durban, spent a small fortune, turned around and drove back home. Great dealership - really sorry to hear of their circumstances......

    Pillion on F800GSA

    Another suggestion - I see you are n Pretoria - book yourself and your pillion for the Dual-Purpose course at ADA. Made a massive difference to my Mrs in anticipation of our Namibia trip - she even asked if I can jump the bike higher.....and to absolutely agree with BH's post above - langarm is...

    Pillion on F800GSA

    When I still had my 800 GSA my Mrs also complained initially - tossed the rubber pegs and bought some offroad pillion pegs from Flying Brick - Knowing her feet were secure sorted the whole issue, to the point that she was happy to pillion a 5000k trip through Namibia and Botswana.........then...

    ..Pay KIT Forward...

    Gone to a new home.....Single Spirit Bluetooth headset unit - great for listening to music or connecting to your phone. Works fine but you'll need to get more sticky velcro to fit it inside the helmet. Free to a good home - You can collect in Sandton during office hours.....

    Transalp vs Africa Twin choices

    Transalp v AT is definitely going to depend on the type of riding you want to do. Both are great bikes. For me, 2-up touring was a priority which meant ATAS DCT and I have no regrets.......until someone asks me to do technical singletrack - which is way beyond my skillset on a 250kg adventure...
