I saw this AT at Ramabantla yesterday as we were leaving at 5:30 in the morning so no chance of asking the owner where he sourced these pannier racks...anyone know, they the neatest that Ive seen so far!

yes, we sell those - that is a rack SYSTEM, meaning a rack and bag combo, so the rack is not sold seperately.

It is a SW Motech rack (and SW Motech 'Dakar' bag (Bags Connection is a SW Motech product).

available from us or other reputable bike stores nationwide

Cheers

After having hard boxes on my previous bikes I just could not deal with the job of fitting and removing the ATG bag's
that I bought for my Twin, especially when on longer trips. So after much delibiration I bit the bullet and bought a set of Mosko Moto panniers.
Must say they are very well made and thought out.

Catchy do you then have ATG bags for the AT?

The ATG bags are universal, I do however have the bike specific Rumbux pannier frames on.

These are the prototype readiator covers and sidestand foot enlarger from GoGravel, soon to be launched. Fitted to my AT.

Very nice

BMC filters - money well spent!!
pricey though, R2200 (luckily for both).
Consumption has improved quite a bit and waaay more responsive from 100kmph and when cruising.
Agents don't change filters on 12000 and wait for 24000 but they look very tired around 15000.

Mine must go for it's 12k km service soon. Did you just change the filters yourself? Where did you get them from?

Hi Koet.

Easy to do yourself but for R2200 Cytech/Tours for Africa fitted them too.

Bike is in for her 12k service and I'm fitting new BMC filters.

Next farkle: Suspension upgrade. But that's gotta wait till cashflow resembles something other than a river of blood.
