*I had this on a previous thread but because I have gone through an interesting learning-curve I thought I'd put it all in one post.* LED Light-bar for a GS I came up with an idea to put a central LED Light-bar on my GS, instead of going the twin spots (one on each side) route. Having things...

I thought i'd share this with you guys. When I bought my 2004 1200GS three years ago, it had a pretty acute brake disc judder which was very noticeable under hard braking or when riding two-up. Since I didn't have much cash left after the purchase, I lived with this problem for time being. It...

Has anyone tried to put a light bar on their bike? I'm thinking of doing this to my GS; one light bar in the middle below the headlight, instead of the normal small round light on either side of the bike set-up. for example...

Where in gauteng / joburg can i find a handlebar bag similar to this? I once saw a few at cash convertors for about R200 each and they were all gone when I went back to buy one :(

Hi guys, it's worth a mention that Brad in Edenvale who sells used BMW spares is a man of his word! I bought a rear shock from Brad in September as my original shock had blown the seal. As I left Brad said, "if you have any problems, bring it back". I fitted the shock but unfortunately, less...

I just arrived in Windhoek for the new job. Last night just after sunset, dead tired and worn out from the loooong ride from Joburg, a mate and I pulled into Zelda's on the Namibian side of the Botswana border for a place to stay and eat. I couldn't believe my ears when the receptionist (I'm...

My girlfriend is selling her helmet. I think she wore it about three times before we got her an adventure helmet, so this one is brand new. R690 onco Kobus 079 507 1348

Hey Guys, I urgently need a lift to Windhoek as I have a job interview there and need to get my ass over there ASAP. (If I can find a lift for me plus my bike on a bakkie or truck, even better!) Any help will be greatly appreciated! PS. the reason I'm asking for a lift is because I'm broke...

Has anyone put non-OEM MX-type grips on their heated-grip GS? My (heated) grips are worn and I never liked the OEM grips as the rubber is too hard, so I thought I'd use the opportunity to put MX grips. Question - Can I put normal MX grips on, or must it be BMW heated-grip specific with a...

Mint condition with all parts, used twice. Asking R1700 R1500 onco (new sells for R3000+) ***SOLD***

After spending the whole day phoning around, I'm reaching a point of gatvolness. either they don't have stock, or they do have stock but they are double the price.. some have the brandnames on their websites, but don't actually sell the brand, and others don't sell to the public. then you find...

Metzeller Karoo 3 or Heidenau K60? Which one and why?

I saw this ad in the bike SA and went to their site. I took the plunge and bought me one of their helmets as I figured that at R1099 , if it turns out to be junk it's not such a great loss. I really liked the look of the helmet - more MX than touring, in other words, i think it looked bad-ass...

here's a link ---- https://www.gizmag.com/garmin-virb-actioncam/28779/ Garmin is a company that’s probably best-known for its satellite navigation devices, but yesterday it announced that it’s venturing into a new product category: actioncams. Its first two camcorders, the VIRB and VIRB Elite...

I want to change the look of my GS, and i have decided on Kalamata green (currently available on the 800GS). i will do some of the remaining panels in matt black as i think there's waaaaay to much silver on the bike, but i dont want to overdo it, so that's where YOU come in. vote for the one...

7km’s of hell. So on Friday morning I decided in the spur of the moment to hit the road. What else was I going to do, sit at home in the company of a girlfriend who’s sulking and won’t tell me why? Hell no! The moment she left for work I hastily packed my stuff. Headlamp, Tent, sleepingbag...

i get a call from a certain mr "clive" (strange name for someone who happens to have a thick african accent) who's interested in the suzuki i'm selling on gumtree. he says he has to check with his wife, and then calls back: "hello?" "my wife says it's OK. i want to buy the bike but i'm very...

So i replied to Woody1's request to get his panniers from Durban to Joburg. As it were, i happened to be in the maritzburg area conducting an aerial survey, and was coming back to gauteng later that week. I can still hear my camera operators' words "waddefok is DIT!?" when i came out of my...
