After almost 5 months I decided to do a short outride of +- 120K... Some dirt and tar west of Bloem.
On the way back opposite Spitskop the magic number rolled over.
First a Plaasnaam for @Dorsland's thread, then I noticed the kilos at my turnaround point, I then stopped at the magic number.
Tommorrow we ride again...

You've been holding onto Shrek for many years Rob, since 2008 right?
Well-done, good kilometers and happy travels you had and hope there is more to come!!

Must say my knee is much better, almost 100%... Daai MSM werk, is nou af na een in oggend en een in aand, het 6 per dag gedrink so 3 maande terug toe ek begin het. Was maar skepties, dit werk beter as die voorskrif goed wat Doc voorgeskryf het.
Terloops, die GP en Otho het nie geweet waarvan ek praat nie... ek dink vandag se dokters is heel out of touch met natuurlike produkte. Sad eintlik.
 
Congrats Rob!...... 10k more and Shrek will be brand new! 🤣🤣
That manufacturing year produced some good models I reckon..... These machines become like an extension of their owner's soul!

In the words of Neil Young......

👍
 
This ride was a sort of "Should I still be doing this?" ride...
What with my knee deciding to go eina and my brothers passing I have been reluctant to ride.
Kept charging the bike and started it a few times and "will go tomorrow" thouhts.
So ja...
It all came back to me yesterday. It is good to have a bike.🥰

Wys jou net wat bereik kan word as jy gereeld n enjin flush met Shell Rotella!! 😜 💪 👏
Hoop jy kan nog baie veilig kilometers ry Robbie.
 
No hijack as this is part of the story.

I now buy it at Checkers for way less.
It works for me and as it is a suppliment with few side effects woth a try if you have worn out joints like me. 😉
Sal Checkers dalk daai OsteoEeze Gold aanhou Rob? Ek kan nie glo wat 'n verskil dit aan my gewrigte maak nie.

En geluk met die 90000km, dis inderdaad 'n groot my paal. En dít sonder enige groot voorvalle nie?
 
Wow, 90,000km. Well done, man! Enige issues o oor die jare? Met die bike, nou...:p
Water pump oil seal at first service. Sorted by @Jules Superbike Services.
Then local agent fucked up his hard work by fitting new one under warranty wrong way round!
Radiator leak and mounting fracture.
Silverton fixed the leak and I modded the mountings. Still holding.
Clutch packed up due to my using wrong oil.
Then the odd bolt or nut going awol...😁

Nie seker of hulle dit aanhou nie @Dorsland.
Moet sê al my ander pynplekke pla ook nou minder met MSM.

Ou Shrek het twee pogings op sy lewe oorleef... Al twee my skuld
Een keer teen sypad geplant en ander keer 'n Alfa se gat afgeskryf. 😎
