Yip,  die swart en silver modelle is die entry modelle,  die wit en rooi modelle het abs en dct, en die top model wat 'n auto box het is ook wit of rooi.

Die boonstes is klaar en pas mooi.  Mike het die onderste (engine protection), wye vlekvrye staal voetpegs en Bashplate Vrydag klaargemaak.  Die eerste stelle gaan die week in vir Laser/Powdercoat.  Mike reken hy wil Vrydag alles klaar hê sodat hy die week daarna die luggage racks kan doen.

Sal more foto's pos.

Ok, some pics.

1 The engine bars will fit both std and DCT
2 The crashbars can be removed within 60 sec for filter access.
3 Spotlight mounting points included
4 Stainless wide footpegs

Note. Looking at the picture the white Africa Queens might not fit on the DCT as it is quite a bit wider (even to the front where the waterpump is located.

Fitted a Mivv slip-on today.
It looks amaizing and sounds even better.

Just received stock of BoosterPlugs for the new AT. It will be interesting to see what it does for the AT. NS. Fitting an aftermarket exhaust calls for a BoosterPlug to counter the leaner mixtures.
BoosterPlug, LED Spots, Tool Tubes, RustStop, Kappa Screens, Top boxes, Tank Bags, ATG Gear - whatever works for me.

Please give more info re cost etc and of course how it works!! I must say the AT is the 1st of many bikes that ive owned where an aftermarket pipe did absolutely nothing performance wise!

You are  welcome. Read here http://www.wilddog.za.net/forum/index.php?topic=194780.msg3603709#msg3603709 and go to boosterplug.com to see what it does. Go here http://www.boosterplug.com/images/shopdownloadfiles/boosterplug_%20installation_honda_crf1000l_series.pdf for the installation guide. Do you want to give it a go? I am keen to see what it does for the Transalp as it makes a nice difference on many bikes. You will have to install yourself though.
