Thanks guys, I am suspecting the CDI unit needs a bit of work....  considering the option of self-repair... could be fun...or not,... :-\ anyone local done it themselves....?  will check with Honda for their current price on replacement. Thanks hardy

Howzit Folks, Anyone had issues like this before... If I am on a 30min Highway stretch where I have been opening throttle 120km-130km/h Then as I reach offramp the engine cuts. when pull clutch in / not accelerating... :-( Starter turns but engine does not take... only after about 10mins...

Lol Ok cool I dig it!!!!  So all you meerkatte out there... I am still on the standard footpegs... are the bigger ones worth it? Also... how deep can our beasts go in water...? was mucking about the other day...and this felt pretty freaky

agree with all 350km is a happy distance, although you will discover when you are in Lesotho.. you should probably change the formula to time-based rather mileage. I'm a chugger at 120km/h, enjoying the scenery... I also don't have one of those extra ferring jobs so I guess I am taking more...
