Journey to GS Trophy 2024 - Namibia

[Malmoer]

You guys did amazing and well done.

It's sad to see that they stacked the odds against the SA team.
I would love to hear a bit more about the event from the horse's mouth so to speak...

Thx in due time.

Idea of this thread is to show eveyting leading up to the event and also including the event.

Its a once in a lifetime event. If there is something that i can take from this is, that my skill level is the hiest it has ever been and probably ever will be. Just makes me a safer rider and i enjoy riding even more.

Well done Malmoer!!! It was one hell of a ride.... Julle kan trots wees!

Well Done Boys, you did very well - second is the best place SA would be allowed to take at this event and you did just that. Proud of each one of you!

reading between the lines i see.
100% correct. That statement was made back in 2022 after the Albania event by a top bmw executive.

but we gave it a good shot

 

[RobCrouch]

Well done!

 

[silvrav]

Well done! ON my bucket list but most likely also only when I am 49 xD

 

[Kamanya]

Outstanding!

I'd love to hear a ride report!

What an amazing privilege just to take part, huge ups to your guys for being so competitive.

Do they let you keep the bike as a consolation prize?

 

[roxenz]

Well done and congratulations to the ZA team. Awesome performance and achievement. Everyone knows you guys are still the best.

There is an option to keep it.
But

You have to purhase and take delivery in Germany........

Dit gaan mos nou heel snaaks voel om terug op jou ou bike te klim

@Malmoer veels geluk man...nou is jy op n yster wat jou skills beter sal match.

 

[TOURAG]

was nie die plan nie....

My bike is afgeskryf agv n ride. Nie n ongeluk gehaad nie maar wel erg baie skade. Storie vir n ander dag.

Die rallye's se verkoops waardes is baie hoog.

Ek ry baie, so ongeveer 30000km n jaar so ek het n bike gesoek met lae kilos en die nuutste jaar wat ek on bekostig.
1250's sepryse is net te hoog en dan is die kilos ook nie baie laag nie.

Ek het die tenere raak geloop teen n billike(budget friendly) prys.
2023 met 2750km op.

Wou nog altyd een gehaad het maar moet se, ek like haar kwaai.

Baie geluk met die T7. Is dit 'n groot verskil om aangewoont te raak in vergelyking met die rally wat jy gehad het? Weet die gewig is 'n groot ding, maar suspension en krag?

Is n groot verskil, ek sal moet werk aan die suspensie.
Minder gewig is natuurlik n hengse bonus.
Die feaures wat missing is soos traction control, engine modes ens pla my nie regtig nie ek het in elk geval op die 1200 in enduro pro mode gery met alles af so dis n maklike een.

Like die T7 se engine, glad en voel baie meer kragtig as wat die spesifikasie se. 72hp klink min maar dis genoeg.
Die exhaust met n akro op klink baie mooi, ek is happy daarmee.

Ek beplan om ten minste vir nou die springe voor en agter met my weight rating te vervang. Gister navraag gedoen by MP Suspension vir Ohlins springe voor en agter.

Algemene balans is baie goed, verbaas hoeveel makliker die T7 dinge doen teenoor die 1200.

Maar soos dit nou staan is die 1200 meer stabiel op hoe spoed (120km/h +) op grond paaie.

Baie geluk met julle poging.

Dankie ook vir die deel van die pad wat julle gestap (gery) het om daar te kom.
