Dear all, I am relatively new to South Africa and I have noticed that many bikes (not only GSA) have the orange cover for their lights. Besides the protection, do you think the orange is that useful? for off road? for being seen? Also, is it better to have the orange for the low or the high...

Hi all and Happy 2014! I recently moved in Stellenbosch and I own a 2012 GSA. Do you know of any place besides Donford that would carry some variety of tires for my bike? Would I need to drive to Cape Town? Thank you!

Hi All, Does anybody know where I could find one of those small pumps to manually move petrol from one tank to another or to a stove bottle? Around Pretoria or on line? Thank you! Emiliano

Hi everyone, I have Jesse Luggage which are made of 2 mm thick aluminum. Do you know anyone in Pretoria area who could fix a couple of dents? I know they look great for an adventure bike blah blah blah.... but I still want to fix them! Thanks! Emiliano

Hi all, I am riding from PTA to PE in one week and I was wondering if you can suggest a biker friendly camping site along the north-western border of Lesotho (SA side). Any other option/suggestion is appreciated. Thank you! ???

Thank you all for the replies and "directions"! Any specific suggestion on where to stay between PTA and PE? I am flexible, from camping to any other (relatively cheap) solution. Thank you!

Thank you!

Hi all, I used to live in the US until one year ago where my GSA used to have Mobil 1 15W-50, which is a very popular oil among boxers fans in the US. I have not seen the same oil in the stores here. Which oil type (brand and viscosity) would you suggest for smoother driving and possible reduced...

Sorry may be I was not very clear. I mean "speed cameras/radar detector"!

Hi everyone, I used to live and ride in the US and there using a radar detector with a motorcycle is common. What about here in SA? Can you find one and use it on a bike? Any experience? Do you really need one? Cheers! Emiliano

Hi all, I recently moved to SA so I am not very aware of many websites and brands sold in SA. I now would need to upgrade my 1200GSA with some good led fog lights. When I was in the USA the Clearwater Krista, expensive but really good. Any suggestions here in South Africa? what would be for you...

Hi all, I am relatively new in SA. Some time ago somebody in Wild Dog mentioned to me that there are options by train from JNB or PTA to transport the bike by train and then have fun around Cape Town? Do you know anything about this? Thank you! Emiliano
