    Wanted Looking around for a maxi scooter

    Must be over 300cc and may not be Chinese. If anyone has one they wish to sell, get in touch. My budget depends on the bike, its condition, and if i think it is a good price. But not one of those R100k scooters. Something between R25 and R55k

    Twist to go

    Would like to get comparative views from F650 owners and possible suggestions on something that is bothering me on my Sertao. Assuming throttle cables and clutch are correcty set - how much throttle do you have to apply for the bike to actually get moving from the time the clutch starts to...

    Wanted DR rough stuff

    Bought a rather rough DR and will be needing a number of things over time, at which time i will post and ask here. In keeping with the character, age, price, and intended use of the bike i will prefer most stuff either 2nd hand, home made, or available at our local vendors. Nothing fancy...no...

    Help me decide - Sertao or XT660R

    I currently have a 2013, low milage Sertao in excellent condition which i have been using for commuting, breakfast runs and short trips. Before i start adding luggage and protection to it, i though i should take a minute and consider whether i should retain the Sertao or get a XT660R. Nothing...

    Sertao luggage options

    I presume the OEM vario cases from the previous F650 and mounting hardware (bobbins and rails i think) is interchangeable. Can someone confirm? Then i am also considering fitting racks for cases which can double up as mounts for soft luggage. More versatile than mounting dedicated soft luggage...

    Sold 2008 XT660R

    I recently went and looked at this bike, but ended up getting something else. The price has now been significantly reduced.

    Smart battery charger that can switch between car and motorcycle charging amps

    My limited understanding is that a charger's amp should be sized about 10% of battery amps. So for my 93AH car battery, i seemingly need to get an 10Ah charger. Would like to get n charger that can also switch, for example to 2-5 amps to also be used for motorcycle. Is there such a product out...

    Which are the quietest helmets?

    So did a recent long distance loop on the DL which was enjoyable save for the wind noise of my old DSV3 helmet. I dont have a high screen (buffeting) and always ride with earplugs. But now that the DSV is pretty worn (should hace replaced it years ago), the wind noise is spoiling the experience...

    Friend who is looking for Funduro / GS has come accross this model bike. Going offroad is not his main consideration, so the Scarver can potentially work. Lots to read on Internet, but was wondering what the opinion / experience of members here are. Looking at it, i have some questions on...

    Wanted Hey Buddy....i want a thumper

    A friend of mine recently had the opportunity to ride a friend's F650GS for a while and really liked it so now he is on the look-out. Budget is tight, as is the case with most pensioners. Top of the wishlest is an early F650GS / Funduro. Then a XT600E and KLR. Ideally around the R30-R35k mark...

    Riveting masterlink on DID 525VX3 X-Ring chain

    Suddenly the clip-type masterlinks for these chains are unobtainable and only the rivet-types are available which means i need a riveting tool. On the chain box it says one needs a DID KM500R tool, but that costs more than the chain itself and i dont want to invest in such tools at this time...

    Bike fell over and broke LH front indicator and clutch lever ball. It is a 2006 model (gen 1). Was actually very lucky for me as it turned out....when i picked the bike up, although in gear, there was no engagement. It was just free wheeling as if in neutral. Took off the sprocket cover and...
