    Where is the main fuse?

    Where would you find the main fuse on an 07 KLR? Suspect it's blown after a jump gone wrong :'(

    Perry Yamaha Tenere?

    I've heard that Perry Yamaha sell a version of the XT660z with some added bits and mods, but can't seem to find any details online. Does anyone know what this entails?

    Long term storage

    Before I went to the UK, I changed all fluids, drained fuel, removed spark plug and sprayed some DWF into the cylinder of my KX. Put it on a stand with wheels off the ground and sprayed the metal bits with DWF, everything else with silicone spray and chucked a cover over it. Stood for 7 months...

    What kit?

    Gloves and boots are a no brainer, but what? I can't see myself shooting down to Durban for the day in a pair of MX boots. Are there boots available that offer decent protection an still let you walk more than a few meters in comfort? Also, these DS helmets with visor and small peak, are they...

    What kit?

    What kit do you wear when doing DS riding? Coming off an enduro bike, I'm used to ballistic vest and knee guards, but they're not particularly comfortable or cool. Wouldn't want to spend a day in the saddle with knee guards chaffing me or smelling like a miner, but I wouldn't mind the protection..

    Helmet testing - are the expensive ones really better ?

    IMO, the best lid is one that stays on your pip, and that you can afford to replace after an off. Seen loads of guys spend R5k plus on a helmet, have a fall and then carry on using it because they don't want to spend the money again. Most guys I know have never inspected the foam for dents or...

    Help me pick?

    What's the deal with tubes vs tubeliss? On the enduro bikes I had tubes (obviously), but there is a tubliss system available, and okes love it. I never tried it, but I assume its for convenience only, as you do not have to worry about pinch flats?

    Help me pick?

    Leave you okes alone for a day and the thread gets to 3 pages!  :biggrin: I had some time to kill this morning, and popped into Yamaha and BMW. No riding impressions, as I need to get my learners, but looks and feel from sitting on the bikes, the Tenere has stolen my heart. Will arrange test...

    Help me pick?

    Hi guys, I'm looking for my first DS bike, and currently I'm torn between one of three options, either second hand F800gs or new G650gs Sertao or XT660 Tenere. I'll be using it for riding ;D Mostly one up, and I'll try my damnedest for as much of the riding to be on dirt as possible, though...

    Hi guys, new to this forum, may know a few guys from edirt and 4x4community! Looking for my first DS bike after road bikes when I was a lightie and more recently enduro riding. I'd like something for the road as well, and will prolly not be doing hectic offroad stuff, so an adventure bike sounds...
