I need a lift for an amateur radio receiver and its speaker, from Somerset West to Colesberg please. I was going to visit Cape Town in March, but that did not happen and I don't want to burden @Mikel89 any longer with storing the items. The receiver and speaker are probably the size of two...

I had this conversation with @NIMMO this morning, after I thought it over while riding to the office. My 1190 is in absolute pristine condition, it has never been dropped and does not have one single mark on it. I'm extremely fond of the bike and I intend to keep it it in this condition...

I've been thinking about stocking a few essential bike tyres for quite some time, but I've always shied away from it, just knowing how slow these are going to move. However, I do get the odd stranded biker and I always feel bad if I can't assist them. I had one yesterday that was in need of a...

Not motorcycle related, but I'm sure to get some answers here: I don't really watch motor racing, except for the Dakar and I will watch an F1 race, now and then. I've been aware of the US Nascar racing and especially the Daytona 500. Watching TV on Sunday evening, I stumbled upon the Daytona...

I bought an HF amateur receiver and its speaker from an elderly gent in Somerset West. The radio is too sensitive to have it couriered and I would prefer to collect it myself. The seller, however, told me that he sold his house and is moving out at the end of February. I have to collect the...

Another pristine bike from Deon in Colesberg. He bought this bike to use on shorter, occasional rides, instead of his K1600GT. However, he then sold the K1600GT and bought a 1200GS, which now meets all his needs and this 1100 is just sitting. As you can see in the pictures below, it is very well...

A friend of mine, who owns a breakdown service, has an accident damaged 1290R. He recovered the bike after it hit a bakkie. Apparently, the bike was just about brand new, at the time, which was approximately three years ago. The rider/owner lost his life in this accident. The bike has been...

Which bike shop in the CT area can I visit, who will stock the largest variety of adventure/off road boots?

My 1190 has only done 10k km since new, but it is already 7 years old. Is it necessary to drain the engine coolant at some stage and replace it with fresh coolant, or not. If it is, which coolant is recommended? Thanks

We're leaving on a trip for southern Namibia, next week. We can't get any clear answers from Nam on whether we'll be able to take meat through the border at Ariamsvlei. This will be pork, lamb and beef, all vacuum packed. We don't mind buying meat in Nam, but would prefer to take our own. We...

A friend of mine is looking to sell his 1100GS. He also owns a 1600 BMW road bike and an old BWM woith a side car. He is extremely finicky about his vehicles and bikes. He has owned this bike for two years I think. He had it meticulously maintained, with all invoices as proof. The bike has new...

Probably looking for the impossible, but here goes: My daughter is 21 and rides a Yamaha WR250, quite well. She is rather petite though and only weighs 54 kg's. I lowered the 250 as much as possible at the front and obviously set the suspension as best as I could for her weight and height and...

My front tyre pressure got a bit low and it triggered the low tyre pressure warning. How do I reset it? I've obviously inflated the tyre, but that didn't clear the warning. That said, I don't run the tyres, and especially the front tyre at the recommended pressure, as I feel it's too high for...

I've been watching this guy's video series, traveling through Africa - not sure if it has been posted. Quite amazing the way he does it. He has no GPS and basically follows the heading he needs to go. In the process, he tries he's utmost to avoid the main roads and as a result, travels through...
