Bloody Well done Altus!  :thumleft: :thumleft: :thumleft: :thumleft: :thumleft:
 
Wow awesome video Mr Red Sky well worth wait. Well done  :3some:

Just a warning to the guys on the outride who drowned their bikes, check your oils  :deal:

I have fitted breather pipes to my diff, gearbox and shaft and they seem to have done the trick because all my oils were fine when I checked them. Bismark's bike apparently had some seriously milky oil though. If left like this, especially on a bike that is left to stand, the bearings an gears will start corroding and that is  >:D

I didn't remove my airfilter at the time and 1000km and 1 week later this is what I found when I opened it up

My next plan is to improve on the low air intake problem by bringing it up to under the tank. That way I wont have to worry about this kind of thing and I can virtually turn the HPN into a submarine  :biggrin:

I think this is one is my favorite just because of its story. John bought this bike new in '81. He has covered over half a million kms on it and still loves to "leave no turn unstoned" on it  O0

I was paging through the bike mags at my local stationary shop when I came across some familiar looking old bikes and faces in the Mei issue of Woema  :3some: There is a great article with some pics on the event , well done Nikki and Altus  :thumleft: GKG in now officially famous  :mwink:

Now I just have to get my decoder up and running again so I can figure out what its all about. Much like Altus' video the whole mag is "trots in Afrikaans"  ??? A souties can also like to ride a g/s  :pot:
