    Helmet - Some useless information

              Long long ago, round about 2007, if I remember correctly, I bought an Uvex lightweight carbon helmet for about R6000.00 new.

    690R Irregular Electrical Problem

    I have a 2010 model 680R Enduro, also known as the PitBike. 77500km on the clock. Lately this machine is developing a rather strange habit. At very irregular intervals the whole dash display will started to flash like the disco lights in the old Jacqualenes. The exhaust note sound very...

    Major loss of oil

          So yes, during our trip following the Molopo River, the PitBike (2010 Model 690R Enduro) developed a slight oil leak on one of the oil filter housing covers. The result of a stripped bolt.

    690 Cooling Fluid

    I want to change the cooling fluid on my 2010 model GayTeeEm 690R (aka The PitBike) Where do I look or find a tap/plug/valve/hose to undo/remove/brake/strip/open to drain all the water (eg cooling fluid). The bike's running temperature seems to me a bit higher than normal. Through the years I...
