    Wide of the Mark

    Just watched an entertaining movie about 6 Ausies on an adventure bike trip round Tazmania called Wide of the Mark. What makes it interesting is the approach and the bikes. They weren’t riding convention bikes, instead adapted (and I use the word cause it wasn’t customised) road bikes. Harley...

    450 EXC Oil change intervals

    I'm getting confused. The manual says oil change every 15 hours, but running a search there is such a wide variety of answers, 5 hour or 500 km or 3 hours etc. What are your recommendations on this, I recon if you go on a law of averages you'll be okay with every 10 hours seeing that I do not...

    Neck brace woes

I’m wearing the jacket type body armor and if I put the rear support underneath the jacket it pushes everything out of proportion, and it does not fit over it, the back and chest protectors push it up to high. Any...

    Tent cot

    I wonder if anyone here has experience with this. Seems to be a great alternative for trips as the single folds into 80cm long X 15cm wide, will fit snug on the bike. They seem interresting enough and cost around US $170 (ZA R2000). With todays "cheap" imports I'm tempted.

    Dodging e-toll gantry

    I was wondering, travelling between Pta & Jhb daily, I have seen a few guys now who would, and not to pass between cars, drive on the white line in between lanes when passing under the e-toll gantry.
