and won't be withdrawn  :D Just don't have the time for 2 bikes, so the KLR stays. and the DR goes. Just did around 200 kms on him last Sunday, and it truly rides well. Suzuki DR 250RS '99 I think. 13lt tank 18000km on clock. Electric and kickstart (his and hers) Fully serviced with valve...

On behalf of MacDuff who has been eyeing a DR600 again  ::) 1998 XT600e  Blue/white New piston/rings, chain/sprockets and tyres. Pretty good condition. R25,000 neg. PM me, and I'll forward his cell no. I don't have pics, but there are some from his trip to Baviaans and the one with...

I have decided to keep the bike......

but not flat  ??? For some reason I decided to check my battery on the KLR and all 6 cells were empty, truly empty. What's strange is that I had no problems starting the bike. Filled the cells up, and put it on charge, but it was still fully charged.....the battery holder is slightly eaten...

My neighbour has had 2 tumbles with his Bros that he used for commuting, (sold) and has decided not to push his luck. He wants to sell his other 2 bikes as well 1999 TTR250 12000km E-Start Small dent in tank R20,000 neg. 1985 DT125 Kick Start R10,000 neg The TTR can do with a bit...

:D Saw an ad in the paper for a DR250 in Hermanus, so I decided to drag MacDuff along at 7am for a little trip...... Nice, very nice......it didn't take long for me to decide, but first I had a look at the other little beauty in the garage....The one Shark suggested, the CRF230F Bloody nice...

Been doing some research on the net for an offroad street legal bike in the 250-350cc class. Suzuki never brought in the DR250 and Yam stopped bringing in the XT350 in 2002( it has kickstart only tho) I see the DR200 (could be a little underpowered) and the TTR250. Test rode the neighbours...

Well, I've decided to sell this little chappie simply coz of the kickstart. I don't have serious problems kickstarting, just hate doing it :? It's a mans job Took it for a spin, and loved it, really a fun little bike, but am thinking of the neighbours TTR with an E-start Some details and...

Just putting out feelers on selling the XT200 , hence not in the for sale section yet....Need to know more or less how much I can sell this bike for. Reason for selling is the kickstarting....not difficult, but just a little bit too mucho for me....want something a bit newer with an e-start...

Is not available anymore :x The black part that goes over the exhaust on the right. The left side I have, and the little red piece that fits over the missing black piece I also have. Is there perhaps a place in Cape Town that can make one up for me? Does anyone know? Otherwise I am going to...

IT'S A BIKER'S LIFE: Rain over the Sani Pass turned the magical road into a giant water (and mud) feature when Denis Droppa and friends "did it" recently with our Johannesburg correspondent aboard this Kawasaki KLR 650. Picture: DENIS DROPPA Dirty weekend on a KLR [ See related stories ]...

Thanks :D Reading your thread on the work you're doing on the XT500, inspired me to get dirty with the wee XT200.....You are an inspiration. The last time the XT was ridden, was in '96 and has been standing in the neighbours garage for 10yrs....he wanted to restore it, but doesn't have the...

The long awaited XT200 is finally in my hands. :D I will be doing what I need to do to get it through roadworthy, then ride have fun, and in winter, try to restore it, but not quite in detail like DD. His pics and report has inspired me though, so who knows? A good learning curve...

Guys, within the next couple of days, I will be ordering the doohickey from Arrowhead....will probably email them first with the items, then phone to confirm.... Does anybody want anything? Let me know ok?

A big thumbs up to them :thumbleft: Had to have a new rear tyre fitted, the TW42....after about 30min wait, paid, said thanks, and off I went....As usual with a new tyre, I was cautious around bends, but still felt the back moving quite a bit, and closer to home, heard this awful noise...

Where can I get one? Need to do the mod this weekend, as there's too much talk of water crossings :shock: I can do the job myself, just need to know what T-Connection is best, and where to buy?

I promised myself that I will do this trip soon, and today was the day. Left on a lovely morning at 9.15am...could'nt manage to drag myself out of bed any sooner, and decided on the direct route. Over Sir Lowrys pass, the Steenbras dam...not the best place to stop. My first break in Caledon...
