    Anyone have a Leo Vince slip-on on their F800?

    Very kind of EssBee to offer a spacer, but seriously not worth posting it. One could buy 5 spacers for the cost of postage

    OK, so I'm a bit confused now. Was that boot sale in the states, or are you back home?

    Bats

    Hi LeonDude, thanks for the informative reply. Yes, I'm pretty sure it's "spit out" as you said. They do it on the fly and one can actually hear it hitting the target. I'm in Plett, in the caravan park, so covers are a bit of a problem. Already have a tarp over the caravan. A shotgun comes...

    Bats

    Slight hijack, but bat related. We have a problem with fruit bats that buzz around all night and crap (or puke, I'm told) over anything and everything that is outside. If it gets on one's car, it takes a scourer to get it off and is very annoying. Any advice as to prevent this please.

    You could have eaten that whole order in the time it took for the robot to turn green, hell it stays red for a long time

    Best place to buy dewalt batteries around jhb.

    Is this an extra battery, or to replace an existing fubar one? If the latter, much cheaper (and often better) to have it rebuilt. Many places do this.

    New bike pitstop near Plett, on the N2.

    Heads up to Alan and his staff for an awesome Bokke/NZ experience. Atmosphere was electric, food was great and in an amazing spirit, everytime the Boks scored, we were plied with springbokkies on the house. Needless to say, I was rather wobbly when I left. Luckily, it's all downhill to Plett...

    The trick is to punch above the paint level...........but, also put a rag over the tin and punch through the rag. Keeps the mess to a minimum while propellant escapes

    Don't know how true the stories were, but I've heard of farmers in Namibia getting their old cruizers into the wielspoor in the desert, setting the hand throttle and braaiing on the back while they chugged along

    LITTLE BLACK BOOK

    I keep a spreadsheet of each and every penny spent, as well as a fuel consumption log for both car and bike. I don't read it too often, but go back occasionally to check what I paid for certain items, then compared to now. As @SabreF86 said, fuel consumption is a good indicator of engine...

    Motobatt Battery in Garden Route?

    Funny enough, the standard battery is a YTX14BS. One would assume that this is a14Ah battery, but is actually only 12Ah. I found this out when I mistakenly bought a YTX12BS, which the dealer refused to swap out, as I had charged it. This turned out to be a 10Ah battery, which I decided to use...

    Ja, I see the same thing in Plett. I think it is the difference between the paid and free versions of Flightradar.
