Try wagging your index finger to them like they are a child. Usually calms them down 😅

Ag nee man. As ek myself op vou, kan ek mos binne n pannier pas en droog bly as dit so bietjie begin reen. As die pens meer groei, gaan ek nie pas nie.

Ek het klaar n GS. Werk nog aan die pens 🤣

A lot of their bikes sell before it even hits the website. Worth maybe getting in contact with them to see the options they have available or coming into the shop soon.

It is a weird thing. I always greet everyone. And I daily a R1200 GSA. The other day I stop next to the same model bike, greet the oke and he still looked at my like I am scum. Very few people greet me back even when I greet. My old F800 really had a lot more street cred...

I briefly looked at this bike 2 weekends back but, not enough to make a determination on overall condition. I was there to look at a Ducati Hypermotard on the floor so my focus was on that.

So I have heard but, my risk management made me not go. If I had someone with me, I would have gone. Will go back at some stage but, I did sell the 800 and replaced it with a bigger 1200. Once I am more comfortable with sand and technical stuff, I will go back there to explore.

I did exactly this. For the last 2 years I have been riding bike most of the time. Except for a short time last year when I broke my wrist so was off the bike for 6 weeks. When the cast came off, I was back on the bike. Even pitched up to my first therapy session with the bike. Only need 50%...

What people say when they see my face....

Starlinks still work if you have a USA address you can order it at and bring it over ;). Might need the package meant for "motorhomes" but, I heard somewhere the normal package is not geo-locked. Can't confirm as I have not played with it my self so could be wrong. But there are definitely...

Still in the tech game. Just not VSAT anymore. Fibre gives a person much more grey hair and I am a sucker for punishment.

800-900ms latency on VSAT is normal and a limitation of the technology. Only way to improve the service is to break the laws of physics. Low orbit satellite like Starlink will always be better. 35800km vs 550km makes a hell of a difference in latency and power requirements to send and receive a...

I specialized in VSAT for 3 years in a corporate setting (mind you, that was 10 years back) but, can tell you that if you expect anything close to the broadband we currently get, you will be really disappointed. It uses geostationary satellites 35800km above the equator. Now if you do the math...

I knew about the issue but, did take a chance. Will open it this weekend to get a part number as it seems there are two versions of screens. I guess Ebay, here I come.

So it has finally happened. My Nav VI started ghosting (registering touch on the screen without it being touched). I purchased it used a while ago so no warranty. I have been in contact with Garmin but I have heard they might not repair. They are unable to give me an estimate of the screen...

And whatever you do, don't ask a swerving BMW driver to get off their phone. They just get angry and try chase you off the road.:cautious:

Any bike is an adventure bike if you are brave enough

Welcome to the Forum. From your picture it looks like your GSA is Ocean Blue? I have the same one and not far from your area.

I prefer sweeto for that childhood nostalgia.

I suffer from nose bleeds from time to time and when I was busy with my pilot license, one instructor suggested these. Used to carry it on every flight after that. Pity they don't come in a scented or, flavored variety.
