In 2010 het ek die radiator op my ZX 10 verloor. n Klip het reg deer hom gehardloop en n gat so groot soos n R2 stuk in hom gelaat. Kawasaki vra my op daai stadium kort van R 13 500.00 vir n nuwe een met n 9 weke wag tyd. Bike Hospital was nie ver agter nie. Ek het vir 7 maande gesoek na...
See if you can find a oil distributor. In Paarl we buy straight from Castrol and Total. All our oils are less than half the price. Opens your eyes as to how much markup the shops put on oil...
I know they sold Castrol Power 1 for R 70.00 a liter.
Actevo was dirt cheap at something like R...
Ek dink hierdie klas van motorfiets gaan baie sterk word. The BMW XR 1000, Mulistrada, Kawasaki Versys 1000, om maar net n paar te noem. Die 1000 Versys is beslis my volgende bike. Ek doen bitter min grond paaie en amper geen ordentlike "off road" nie.
Hierdie motorfietse tick al die regte...
My 45 000 km service I was charged 8 hours. It was a major service and they did everything needed. Nothing special and nothing needed extra attention. I was also quoted R 5 500.00 for my service, by KTM Cape Town. I ended up taking the bike to Superbike Solutions. Cost a bit more but the...
I bought my girlfriend the 200 cc Puzey a few years back. The bike never gave us any hassles and she rode it all over. But it was built cheap and nasty. The amount of time I spent keeping the bike in top shape was crazy. There was always something wrong after every trip.
Look for a second...
On a bike that you ride every single day...don't fix what ain't broken. Keep an eye on your wear and tear parts and replace as needed. Preventative maintenance is good, but today's bikes are built really well.
I went through the Baviaans with the 690 last December. It was the day after Christmas and it was mental. I stayed in Plett for many years and I've never seen so many vehicles in the kloof. Some of the drivers were insane. Be very very careful around the corners. The 4x4's really don't care...
Beplan enige iemand om op te ry vir die Poison Rally. Ek en n friend verlaat die Hugenote tolhek Donderdag 00:00 ( 01/12/2016 )
Laat weet my as daar enige iemand is wat wil saam ry.
R 4 000.00 for a major service with the dealer isn't bad. I'd have it done by a good mechanic. On the 990 I'll do oil/filter and screens. I'll replace my air filter and pads, sprockets and chain. The valve clearance, brake fluid flush, coolant change and stuff like that I leave to a...
I took a friends 990 R for a ride yesterday. His bike is at 22 000 km and is much quieter than mine. My bike is approaching 50 000 km fast and has a much louder mechanical sound than his bike. I do ride my bike very hard. With lots of extended wheelies, racing up and down Hellshoogte and...
Earlier this year I did a ride in the Richtersveld. It was hot...above 40 degrees in places. The fan was running most of the 6 ours that we were on the bikes. My bike was fine and never had me worried with weird noises or anything.
My friends 990 did the same thing. His engine got very...
