    F800GS Tyres & OEM High Wind Shield

    Believe it or not they describe it as being their 'high' windshield, there is a lower version, whilst the tall version (as fitted on my GS) is described as the 'touring' windshield. The part number as per the link provided in the advert is on the shield :-)

    Accommodation in or near Himeville

    There are a good few B&B's in Himeville itself... we stayed in one of the establishments at a daily rate of R220 pp excl breakfast. Sure if you check the B&B 'shlenternet' sites you'll find something suitable. Have fun, such an awesome place! Try and do the river tubing if you can. Cheers  :ricky:
