Seeing as I didn't get a response, I still went for it. Full speed on a hangover and around 11am I entered the park. I had a moment in the early shallow sand before the first gate, but sorted myself out and marched straight towards the first section of deep sand.. So fast that I panicked when I...

Thanks for the advise. My trip has been going pretty smoothly besides some luggage  issues,i will do a ride report when I'm back home. So tomorrow I'm riding from Hondeklipbaai to Lutzville or Vanrhynsdorp via the coastal sand. My bike can do about 300km on a tank, planning on taking about an...

Great Thread, Thanks for the link. Any comments on the info?

Hi, New to the Forum. Seems like a place to stay and hang out a bit. I recently got my hands on a TR650 Strada. I would like to change out the front mud gaurd and wheels to match the Terra. Does anybody know of a place in gauteng who could help me. Also, I think I should put some crash...
