    LOOKING FOR: TW200

    Hi, If I may ask, how did you manage to get the bike registered, A friend of mine bought a 2019 TW 200 from Linex Yamaha in Randburg, paid them to register it. They say that the homologation certificate for the TW200 has been withdrawn and that the TW200 is not a road legal bike.

    Gear shifting issue on 2011 GSA

    I had the same problem at about the same km, it was the linkage between the gear leaver and the gearbox that came loose, took it to Bmw, they tightened it quickly and for free, never had a problem again

    AEROTRIM FLIPUP SCREEN PROMOTION - R500

    I always find this very funny, if you want to elliminate buffeting, you need to lower the screen, not raise it even higher. I bought my Bmw 1200 gsa and the screen was upright, when I got home I lowered it, because you need to create an aero wedge, not a wall. I am 1.9 metres tall and set my...

    Bikes not allowed in car parking

    I have never had a problem from car guards or mall security, I have had individuals comment on me taking up a full parking bay, my standard reply is that my bike probably costs more than their car.

    Kaoko Throttle Control - Reviews?

    I have one and I love it, what's with using your left hand, the koako has a lefthand thread so when you open your thottle with your pinky on the wheel, it locks in place, same when you close the throttle with your pinky on the wheel, it unlocks.
