    Bike Transport Cape Town to Johannesburg

    That is my other bike. 11 years old more than 100k km on the clock still ticking along. I have just been reading ride reports about Hardy's trips and felt a lighter bike makes more sense. The fact that my youngster can ride the DR and join me on some trips is a bonus.

    Bike Transport Cape Town to Johannesburg

    Sorry about another bike transport thread. I have been given 2 contact details. Neither answers their phone. I got an I'll call you later but no call back from one. I am obviously disillusioned. Considering flying down and riding it back. sadly work won't allow the time. Can anybody...

    Causes for snaking

    It's apparently a known thing for panniers to cause snaking. My 990 starts snaking at around 160 also. Triumph sorted this out with a flexible pannier connection. I see KTM is offering this in their power parts catalogue for their KTM panniers on the 1290. I have played with it and weight...

    Yamaha T7 - No longer a Concept

    Your KTM 12 000 or 120 000 km's? If it's 12 000 then the Yamaha might last.

    Ten700 or 790R

    Danie you got it wrong. You can buy the KTM if you want. So all the KTM's are off the floor Rally bikes. The Dakar is full of KTM because you can buy the bike. The Yamaha and Honda are only for factory team riders.They are as standard as the race winning Mini. So in all their specialty not one...

    E-bikes vs motorcycles

    You have that on your motorbike? :pot:

    Not this again

    My understanding is most manufacturers would carry the PDI cot. Even if they didn't when I buy a bike from you the sales price should include all these extras. It is part of the cost of sale. They are trying to push cost of sales down to you.

    KTM 690 airlifted out of Swartberg.

    Sadly he can't do that. To do that he would have to ride a Jap bike too. :ricky:

    Yamaha T7 - No longer a Concept

    There is the rub. After pags and pages of shooting various KTM's down the Snowflake KTM he rides is still preferable to the Unicorn. Since this post he has made many posts to consign this one to the annals of history. 2SD doth protest too much, methinks.

    Quality Riding Jacket

    And this is why I prefer a walk in shop. WHen I find hat I like I want to try it on confirm the fit and leave with it. The link starts with someone els but after the first post MXalliance steal the show. It seems you would do better to order it yourself directly from overseas. At least then you...

    Yamaha T7 - No longer a Concept

    I wish Yamaha would back themselves and just sell a few in SA. I suspect while a good bike it is not the world beater the hype is pretending. in the Pol Tarres video it definetely gave up a few spokes while wheel spinning on the beach. How many bikes did they really use to make that video...

    Quality Riding Jacket

    My frustration is I like to walk into a store talk to someone and try things on. MXAlliance is online only. With the fact there is no size consistency any longer what confidence do I have. most Saffer online stores try and make you wait for delivery issues and wrong sizes etc. In the States or...
