Afternoon dogs My flatlet that I rent out has a problem where damp is forming in the kitchenette. I suspect an old or leaking pipe. I need someone to trace the cause and effect repairs. Please contact me via PM. Thanks! Koet

Morning. As per the title, in what condition is the pass to Thaba-Tseka once you turn off the main tar road? Last time we did it with bikes the steeper section had couple of steps down with big rocks. We managed fine, but a friend wants to do it in his 4x4 combi (bit raised but not much) and...

Hi everyone I'm trying to plan a 3 day (2 night) gravel route in the Eastern Cape.  We'll use at most 2 days to travel down from JHB to meet up with my brother from PE and then we'll probably have 3 days to explore some gravel before heading to Boknesstrand for maybe 2 nights and then the trek...

Hi all I've got a Wunderlich radiator protector and headlight protector for F850/750GS brand new, never fitted that's just taking up space.  For collection in Randburg or courier at an extra R100. I see on a local dealer's site the prices for these things are crazy.  Please make an offer. Koet

Hi all I somehow managed to crack the mirror on my AT. The assembly is 100% and now has a little scratch, but the mirror is cracked into several pieces.  Is there a way to replace just the mirror? Or if not does someone have an assembly they don't use anymore which they're willing to part with...

Hi guys I'm hopeful that some of the knowledgeable Dogs will be able to help with some interesting routes for a 3 day ride out of JHB.  We'll be a mixed group of mostly avg and some novice riders, so the route should be easy going and not too technical.  Camping for sleep-over will be fine, but...

I've been using the older version of the Spirit Revert helmet for commuting and I like it a lot.  I like the sun visor and the fastening clip and the comfort.  What annoys me is the visor mechanism that can't hold the visor up if you go over 60km/h.  The wind will just push it down.  The helmet...

Hi guys We (GoGravel) did an upgrade design to our radiator guards for the R1200GS LC for the new models.  Anybody around the Randburg or surrounding areas that would allow me to test fit on their new model (late 2017) LC? Please PM me! Thanks!

Hi guys. My brother is somewhere in South America on a trip and I got an SMS from him saying that his rear shock on his 2007 R1200GS is cooked and seals blown.  Is there anything he can do to filed-repair /rescue this to get to a town for proper repair? Thanks in advance! Koet

It started because of a lack of riding.  Life was getting in the way big time and it had to stop.  Kwassi's side was easy to sort, but I had to sacrifice some serious man-points to get a weekend away from SWAMBO and the 2 terrorists. First we had to decide where.  I knew I probably had only a...

Hi Advertising for a friend.  She's got a Nitro N1400-VX medium size helmet for sale.  Photos below.  She's asking R500 for it. Please give Lieze Oertel a call if interested or for more information. She is in Gauteng (working in Sandton) 082 876-5685

Hi knowledgeable peoples of WD My little Djebel has developed a rather weird sideways wobble at low speed.  It's like the little bike "shakes" left and right.  It happens when I slow down at a traffic light and is also quite evident when I give some power at slow speed while in a high gear.  I...

Hi all After our "small bike trip" to the Den (and my first longer distance trip on the Djebel) I need to do something about the bike's seat.  Does anybody know of a place that can re-do the seat to be more comfortable?  So re-do the sponge and the covering? Any contacts/advice welcome. Koet

Morning Dawgs It started happening again last night.  The little 250 Djebel sputters when revs go medium/high.  It doesn't have a rev counter, so the best description is that in 6th gear, when I reach more than 60km/h it starts sputtering and backfires.  It happened twice before, and that was...

Hi guys and girls. Can one of you maybe send me that PDF version of the service manual for the 250 Djebel?  If so, please let me know what details you need from me. Dankie! Koet

Hi dogs Does anyone have a stock bash plate for the new LC?  Maybe you replaced your stock one with an aftermarket?  Please PM me if you do and what you would want for yours. Thanx!

Hi A friend booked himself for a bile license test in Alberton on the 24th of Jan.  He also wants to do the license training on the 14th.  The place that he is doing the training through here in JHB doesn't want to rent him a bike for the test in Alberton. Do you dogs know of any options for...

Cool vid.  Might've been posted before.  If so, just enjoy it again!  :thumleft: https://youtu.be/SixrqpEAt6o

Hi all A friend of mine is looking for a courier for 2 bikes from JHB to CPTN in December.  I told him that I would ask the Dogs, would like to support community business first if possible. Please PM me if you can help, then I can put you in touch with him (I don't know dates etc myself). Thanx!
