Ek verstaan nie. Is F'qol net so veel soos fokkol?

May I add that a good service with fresh oil ect makes a huge difference? When last was your bikes suspension service? I had mine done recently at MP in Capetown, and apart from other work, he found one orifice or valve thingy clocked up. His explanation was that pressure would have built up at...

So....for a carburetor engine , no issue if you use the kill switch. The switch just dump the electrics to the chassis = ground On a fuel injected bike, there is literally a "buzz" of comms running to and from sensors, servo motors, checking safety circuits, etc. Basically thousands of pulse per...

mmm. ek sal dit gaan vergelyk met bike by RAD, maar die foto laat dit erger lyk vermoed ek. Bike staan mooi regop, soos ek daarvan hou... Dankie en groete

Ek het hom so gekry...Is hy veronderstel om reguit te wees?

Hi Piet, My side stand is nou about 80 mm longer (at the bottom) and the existing spring is not strong enough to keep it up when "enjoying the bike"---small jumps etc. Did you use a stronger spring? @Kamanya i will take it thanks. Watsapp send

So...what did you do with the side stand spring after making the side stand longer?.... Did you move the connector on the side stand and replaced with a longer and stronger spring? IS the side stand for the S and R models longer at the spring section or longer at the bottom end of the stand?

I bought one last week from KTM in Cape Town for R465-00. According to RAD in Paarl, it is discontinued, but the Cape Town guys had stock...

Praat met @Fenderbender . Hy het al 'n paar fenders mooi gemaak

Eerste trippie gehad met die "langer suspensie die naweek. Hoogte is nou perfek (Ek dink so 250mm?!) Steeds gemaklik met my voete op die grond. Daar deur Anysberg 'n paar keer al sy voete in die lug gehad en hy land met geen issues. MPeatzoldt is 'n "genius". Oop pad oor gate, klippe, sinkplaat...

I owned a GS many years ago, since then on 2 HP2's (also Boxer engine) and now also a 990. This is a very old debate, so I think I am in a position to give an alternative view. Just park for a minute the discussion what bike is best, and look into the designers "intent", or "Brief". Maybe it...

@Hinksding het geluide gemaak van wil kom aan my..

My experience with the D606, based on one on a previous 501 and XRR650, both at the rear, is that the compound is quite hard - It should give good mileage but it doesn't "bite" as other softer tyres. (I actually ended up in a ditch in a offroad race with the 501 due to loss of traction... I...

@Heimer, ek het jou 'n boodskap gestuur. Ek gaan LLTHB se bed oorneem - as hy net sy foon wil antwoord, en my vriend Hennie du Toit (Lang Hennie ) neem my kamp spot oor..

To add...I replaced the chain guard on my 2007 990 recently due to a clapping noize at low RPM. The pices that goes around the swing arm . Got the original from KTM CT. What a difference. Quite and smooth all the way.! Be cautious of a stronger fin...it might lead to damaging the swingarm ! The...

On inspection of my flat front tube, I also noted a small fold in the tube, which weakened it. Tube was fitted by a dealer....

Happened to me last year on my way from WARR. Front went flat in the Nuwekloof pas. I had to use both lanes through that little pass. Was on my first trip on the 990. Scary experience 😬 Gat af geskrik! KTM Paarl fitted a new tyre and tube the day before the trip. I saw that the lock nut on the...

Hi, I need to derust and clean bolts. I remember somewhere on WD's somebody made a homemade setup. Can you direct me to the info please?

What is the longer term solution to the sight glass blowing out? I bought my 2007 model with a 20c piece glued in with plastic steel. Coming to work today the 20c blew out as well - Not sure how many years it was in there.. I have a 2n hand brake master to fit, but want t know - based on...
