    New mirrors on my 950.

    Got these today, fitted this evening. Reading on ADV they are meant to ease the vortices shed by the stock ones - will be able to comment on this once I have taken it for a spin down the highway. I like the look tho'.

    Calling all Sparkies - KTM electrical

    Hereâ??s a question for all you electrically minded people. I recently fitted some spotlights. Upon fitting, I earthed the required wires to the stainless steel â??head-frameâ? (for lack of right word). At that time the meter said that the voltage was fine. A few weeks ago the lights started...

    I fell and failed!

    :-[  :-[  :-[ Thereâ??s a school of thought that advocates that one should speak freely about all issues in ones life, since it puts it â??out thereâ? and doesnâ??t become pent-up issues in your own mind. I resolved to do this, no matter how painful it is to talk about, OR how EMBARRASING...

    Pearls of Wisdom

    There are many well-travelled biking adventurers on this forum, and I've been thinking the following: If you could only give a noob 1 bit of advice, in one sentence, prior to them entering this passtime, what would it be. Your best piece of advice - no matter whether it's been said by someone...

    Solo Soul Food

    Solo Soul Food. So it was that I got no takers to ride a bit of a nostalgic route with me, and perhaps it was a good thing, else I possibly wouldnâ??t have got as much out of the experience as what I did. Everyone, for different reasons, wants to go back and see places that they lived in, or...

    Nostalgia

    I've been planning to do a bit of a nostalgic trip, to the place where I was born and spent my youth - Penge/Burgersfort/Steelpoort. I was planning to do it alone, since most of my mates are still on vac somewhere, but my Mrs asked me to try find a companion - so here it is. Would anyone like...

    I saw the light

    Right – I got some more light!  ;D The intention was to be more visible in traffic and to add more lighting power for poor condition riding, such as mist and fog. Coming back from Lesotho on a recent trip, thru Underberg area in heavy rain and fog, at night, I realised there’s a definite need...

    Wanted: KTM 300

    All, Maybe I interpret my wifes "If you want to ride on those roads, why don't you get an off-road again?" question incorrectly. Perhaps she means sell nine-fiddy and get off-raod. The way I see it - keep nine-fiddy and get off-road for more technical stuff and buggering around.  ;D So, anyone...
