    THOR turtle pakkie - Bike shirt bo-oor of nie?

    Ja nee kyk, ouderdom is 'n bliksem... ;D.  Ek moet se, as dit nie vir daai tor pakkie was nie, sou ek baie meer ribbes gebreek het. As jy met 'n neckbrace ry haal die armadillo agter kant af.  Hy is veroderstel om te werk met die ding aan, maar dis 'n bogger om hom in die gat te kry (dit is maar...

    The Pooratech Thread

    Okay, not necessarily Pooratech, but surely a cost saver. The standard Trax pannier base plate is a bit crap.  Mine  broke completely due to vibrations on the Tenere... Good Vibrations...  I decided to design my own out of 4.5 Alu.

    It could be that your chain needs replacing yes.  When the bike is on the center stand the chain runs on the swingarm chian guard and on the bottom chain roller, so with a dry chain and an old chain it tends to make a weird noise.  always change both sprockets with the chain.  Im doing mine...

    That sound might be rear wheel bearings being "Sat".  If it is a "clack clack clack" noise it is bearings.

Usually the light comes on at roughly 280km - but this depends on how long the bike has been upright (the gauge is...

    Quality bike tie downs

    Try Helderberg yamaha.  i have a set that was not overly expensive.  think i paid R200 or something, but i can be wrong... two caribeeners with a loop at one end that goes around the bike with also a good press buckle to tighten it down.

    A cheap tire with good grip is the T63 - but with crappy Km's.  More expensive tire with good grip - TKC twinduro - OK km's Good allrounder - Mitas E-07, E-09 or E-10
