After recently relocating from Cape Town, South Africa to Los Angeles, USA, I found myself in the unfortunate state of being cage bound. This was weighing heavily on my mind – not just because I was unable to ride, but more so due to being completely unsure as to what bike I next want to...

Hi I have sold my GSA without the panniers & topbox, so these are still for sale. Happy to let the whole set go for R12k, as they are still in great nick - I may have used it once or twice since I bought it with the bike in 2011. PM me if interested. Thanks!

Hi The sad day has come that I have to put my baby on the market. Reason for selling is simply because my wife and I are relocating to the USA in a few months. I initially bought the bike from our late friend, HP Freak (RIP Howie . . .) At the time the bike had 12000km on the clock and...

During June this year, I was fortunate enough to ride again with my friends Lucky Striker and Kaboef, as we had some unfinished business to wrap up on the West Coast. Which they did. I had a camera and a little GoPro with me, and managed to string together the following two clips of our quick...

Monday, 31 Dec 2012 Last year I decided to attend Mother’s informal but by now annual “New Year’s Bash”, this time held in Hanover. I enjoyed the get together, especially the company and ended up doing a few days solo ride in the Karoo – check out some pics here...

Yebo There have been a lot of threads about the bash already, so apologies if this is a bit boring as a result. I have put three video clips together of the ride there (Part 1), the Saturday at the bash (Part 2) and the ride back (Part 3). Had major issues with the video's being blocked on...

After some deliberation I have now eventually decided to post here about my intended little project. The reasons for my apprehension to open up the inner activities of my squatter hut to the general public are multiple. For instance: This is probably just “another one of those airhead...

I was up in Joburg and had some free time on Sunday before having to return to Slaapstad. So I suggested to Messrs Brakenjan & Rolling Stone that we should go for a ride to talk some kark, reflect on our last ride together at the Amageza and of course have a cold one - their indication in return...

Posting on behalf of a (non WD) friend, who is looking for a good condition second hand BMW aluminium / Trax topbox for his 800GS. Plse PM me if you have one or know of one for sale. Thanks

I have a brand new (unopened & still in its bag with instructions) folding brake lever for the BMW G650X Challenge for sale that I bought new from TT but ended up never using. They are currently selling it (see ...

I have a brand new (unopened & still in its bag with instructions) BMW G650X low profile oil drain plug for sale that I bought new from TT but ended up never using. They are currently selling it (see  https://www.touratech-usa.com/Store/2076/PN-049-0360/G650X-low-profile-oil-drain-plug) for...

I had some free time during New Years and when I saw Mother's bash thread in Hanover, I decided to do that long awaited Karoo solo trip around it. Instead of doing a "normal" ride report, I have decided to mix some pix with noise. Hope you enjoy watching it as much as I enjoyed riding there...

I guess it all started off in das german colony of Deutsch Sudwest Afrika, way back when in Oct 2007. After an awesome trip (in the middle of nothing - see some pics and babble here: https://wilddog.net.za/forum/index.php?topic=12145.0) we became a bunch of good mates and managed to keep in...

Hi I am looking to get a set of Anakees for my GSA. Was just quoted a price of R2409 for a set by Tracmac. Is this ballpark, or can one get these tyres cheaper somewhere else? If so, any suggestions for here in Slaapstad? This really seems too much. I mean I am not buying a set of tyres for...

If the the SAS Willehond main mechanic (having recently turned into the SAS Wille-dakar-bike-builder) is not too busy converting a perfectly good motocross bike into a fast fuel bowser wiff dik truck speck hoses, I shall appreciate it if he could advise me whether the SAS Willehond is currently...

Yesterday we got an invite from friends in Paarl to watch the rugby with them, and when the Princess mentioned that we should use the motorhome to attend to this visit, I jumped at the opportunity, as rides with her on the back is few and far between. In fact the last one was six months' ago in...

Last weekend ChrisL and I had to make a decision on whether to cross a low level bridge across the Duiwenhoks river that had some water flowing over it. (Some pics of the crossing here: https://wilddog.net.za/forum/index.php?topic=63615.0) At first glance (and even without walking through the...

Hierdie is my eerste poging om `n kortstondige ritverslag in my moertaal, Afrikaans,  weer te gee. Die taal is myns insiens ongelukkig  stadig aan die uitsterf en voor dit gaan gebeur wil ek darem `n paar gedagtes oor van my ervarings op `n motorfiets uitkap met die blikbrein se sleutelbord in...
