I stole  :biggrin: a 1983 suzi TS250 with 1440 Km on the clock. Tyres are still original and looks fine, but kindly check the pics and advise. Mainly town and dirt road use. Ride or replace ?

All my previous bikes, were in good condition and I tried to keep them that way. Since I sold my GS, I've been looking for a 2 stroke as I have never owned one, except for a Vespa in 1959. Today I purchased a 1988 ( which turned out to be a 1983 ) Suzuki ER 250 which was advertised on Gumtree...

Bought my bike in 05,  and it always idled at 750-1000rpm depending on the heat and or length of trip. 2 months ago, I heard of Corrie Venter in Wilderness who is an airhead fundi ( they said ) who used to use airhead engines in small aircraft. As I was worried about my timing, as well as the...

?????? When it was announced overseas, I wanted one, but trauma in the family was a priority. I don't even know if they came into this country. Any info anyone?

My headlight bulb needs replacing and I would like to install a 100 watt instead of a 60/55 standard bulb. Autozone only have a 130 watt, besides the standard one, but told me I need a relay as it could burn out my switch. The way I see it the 130 watt bulb would draw 10.83 amps at 12 volts, and...

Check out the detail. Is it a V twin, or what.

In 1983, I attended a BMW rally in East London. Besides being at a time of petrol restrictions and a national drought in the area, the highlight of the weekend was the unveiling of a brand new Krauser converted  R100RS in mother of pearl, which some rich farmer had ordered.  It was a beauty to...

What pressure should I pump the Anakees on my GS airhead for normal dirt road riding.

My 2 friends from the BVI, on their new bikes, did the Rooiberg Pass last Thursday, I feel they need an easier route, as the lady rider found Rooiberg to be out of her comfort zone. She stalled the bike twice on the upclimb and dropped it. No damage to her or the bike. Riding a new Sertao for a...
