Someday you'll own a Yamaha.

Ja, die hand is beter, maar dis die clutch hand, nie die ABS hand nie...:)

Start hom in neutral, stoot die bike n ent en sit in rat in beweging. Soek neutral terwyl jy beweeg na n stopstraat, dit is maklik omdat die ratkas draai.

I did 65000kms before this started, on this same mod. I will sort it out when I return from holiday, and post the results here.

So, if you sat on the tar at 140/150, and the tacho goes into the red at 152kph, you were almost redlining it on the tar? So it does around 8000rpm at 150?

As I descended into Doringkloof from the side entry with brakes disengaging automatically, all I thought about was the poor sod who died on the BMW for the same reason and what poetic justice it would be for me to go the same way..... I could hear @TheBear laugh on the other side of the...

5 out of 10 times it would brake as normal, the other half the pedal will not move, like the adjuster is too tight.

:love::love: I know, even on Porto Santo they have these mini-panniered DT50's. Love that island and it's people. Where on the island are you based?

Coming to think about it, my bike's tail/brake light stopped working about a year ago, I think around the same time I started noticing the rear brake issue. Perhaps electronically linked?

Then the two of us are neck to neck in the "who knows" race.:giggle:

I got my bike in 2016, and immediately spaced out the rear brake ABS sensor, disabling the whole system. This has worked 100% until about a year ago, when I would find the rear brake pedal rock hard, with zero braking, every 5 out of 10 tries. This did not bother me much, but over the last...

Speel-speel, soos Chris sê.

Ladismith camshafts......properly matured.

:love: Ek het letterlik sit en wag vir jou.

@BuRP was on a 2025 KTM 500, I was on the 701 and Rufus on the best of the lot, a 2016 Yamaha xt250. While I found it easy, there is a few places where a small mistake could have very serious consequences. Perhaps this simply unnerved you a bit?

My skill level may well fail me completely on Baboons, but over my whole life I have always strived to actually see for myself what terrain look like. If I listened to others' reporting on road conditions, I would have missed out on multiple brilliant technical rides over the years.

Verdien n mens dan om betaal te word om sulke onbetroubare kak te bou?;) Ek dog hulle werk vir tips.

Gaan kry n RPC by die verkeer, vat vir padwaardigheid, laat hom weeg, polisie verklaring oor opbou koste, en kry jou papiere.

Agusta will surely never be missed by me. Even in their heyday, it was a company producing very successful racebikes, and very expensive road models, built by an Italian multi-millionaire. Never related with them, my Suzuki, Yamaha, Kawasaki and Hondas I could buy, was cheered by me.
