I went through the same trouble with the pods falling on the ground, also they did not have great battery life. I switched to these earphones...

Yes, a 50/50 type tyre will be much better on Namibian gravel roads vs Karoo street. I currently run Karoo4 tyres on my Africa twin. Great performance but the rear tyre will only last ±3000-4000km. I also went through the exercise of buying tools for my Africa Twin. I got a (blank) tool roll...

This weekend we were descending a very steep, rocky and rutted (loose rocks) 4x4 trail near Riversdal. A decent of ±300meters. At first I switched off all the electronics (ABS and traction control) and started the decent. After about 50meters I was almost completely out of control with the back...

Gaan 'n winter baadjie, gloves en Helmet (met peak) maklik in daai boks ingaan?

Ek gebruik meer en meer my bike om te ry na kliente en meetings toe. Ek het tans 'n ±35L Kappa top box. Hy is net te klein om baadjie, handskoene en adventure helmet in toe te sluit. Ek dink n Topbox van ±45-55L sal idiaal werk. Plastic / SS / Aluminum maak nie saak nie, ek haal die topbox...

Nee, moet nie tyd mors met die app nie. Gebruik a Garmin GPS.

Garmin Drive (or last of the Nuvi models) you get from Gumtree or Facebook for a good price. A good universal GPS bag mount from forum vendors. Little bit of electrical work with the 12v supply. Load with the latest T4A maps. Now you have a cost effective solution. I used this for ±10 years...

Vrydag laatmiddag in die Cederberge Sondagoggend met Sonopkoms in n stormagtige Tankwa karoo

Okay, so die fiets was Vrydag by Honda in Tygerberg. Hulle het blykbaar een of twee sulke gevalle gehad van bikes wat uitsny en dan nie na N wil terugskakel nie. Die "nuwe" sagteware sal nou die probleem uitskakel....sê hulle. So my bike het nou die nuutste sagteware. Ek het nog nie weer die...

Ek het seker al so ±400km al gery sedert dit gebeur het. Die fiets het nog nie weer so gemaak nie. Hy gaan Vrydag na Honda toe vir n diens, sal laat weet wat hulle sê. Ek begin nou in myself twyfel ook....het ek nie per ongeluk die kill switch gedruk op spoed nie? Maar as is dit die geval dan...

Dankie. Ek sal dalk oor die naweek so bietjie loer. Maar Honda moet maar volgende week ook kyk. Ek hoop dit was n geïsoleerde geval, maar ek sal hom fyn dophou.

Gister ry ek tussen Malmesbury en Stellenbosch. 120kmph op speed control. Voor my is n stadige karretjie. Ek draai die fiets se oor. Smooth. Om verby die kar te gaan. Teen 130kmph vrek die fiets skielik. En ek cruise in 6de rat tot stilstand. Nou staan ek langs die pad. Die fiets wil nie uit...

Ons gaan jaarliks Kgalagadi toe al vir die afgelope ses jaar. Gewoonlik middel April. Volgende jaar is die oudste in Graad 1. So ons is gebind tot skool vakansie, laaste week in Maart 2024. Toe die bookings aanlyn "oopmaak" was daar net 1 nag in Mata-Mata oop en 1 Nag in Nossob. Ek het dit...

. Look at 05:30 in that video. I did the "full" water pump job twice in my ±70 000km of ownership. In both instances it was the seals that got "hard" and "eaten" the shaft. The impeller and gears was always fine on my Dakar. I then started to do this trick every second service, just replace...

Thanks gents. I am not going to worry, just keeping the slip for insurance. But will check with my broker.
