    Wanted Honda CBX 250 Twister (or some form of wheels for < 20k)

    I have just returned to Cape Town and want some wheels. I miss my KLR650, if I can get one of those for a similar price that could be a great option. Also open to suggestions. Even a scooter that could sit comfortably at 100kmph would do for now. I am likely to sell it on in 4 months time.

    Is a full license required to enter Mozambique?

    I am pretty sure I know the answer to that, but it would be a nice surprise if I didn't need one! I live in Kosi Bay (30-40km South of Ponta Do Oura, Mozambique) and have my bike with me (and a learner's license). Wondering if anyone around here knows how to find the closest motorbike testing...

    Route from Johannesburg to Kosi Bay [depart 28/03/2019]

    I am hopeful for company, but a solo trip would be great too. Does anyone know any more interesting routes there? Originally I was going to leave from Cape Town, but I ran out of time to prepare camping equipment, and 6 or so nights of non-camping accommodation would have killed my budget. I...

    CPT - Worcester - BeaufortW - Colesberg - Bloem - Ladysmith - Pongola - KosiBay

    Hi, I am returning to my home of 2019 (Manguzi) sometime next week or the week after (sometime between 22 and 29 March). I am pretty flexible about when I leave because I work remotely as a programmer, so all I need is a laptop and an internet connection, so can continue to work in Cape Town...

    Radiator suddenly leaking, what are my options

    Hi guys, when I noticed the leak I checked the coolant level and it was still at an acceptable level. Out of desperation I kept it topped up with straight water for about a week, maybe two or so before I decided just to stop riding and sort it out. It drains from top acceptable level to bottom...

    Best value for money chain/sprocket set?

    I need to replace my chain as every few days it requires tightening and some links are stiff and make a clicking sound. I got a quote from Trac Mac for R1500 including labour, although I can't remember which type. I don't want to put something rubbish on which would affect resale price of my...

    Cost and method to strip plastic wrap/paint off?

    My 2011 KLR 650 has this grey plastic wrap/paint over it, applied by previous owner. It looked alright when I bought it but now its all scratched up and looking tatty (noob  experiences on the mountain trails!). Is there some kind of solvent that can strip this off? I can peel the plastic wrap...
