Hi all, Looking for a 2nd hand luggage set and racks for a 2009 KTM 990 in the Cape Town area. Please PM me if you have something along these lines. Cheers, Ian

Evening all, After 12 000km on and off road I finally picked up a puncture in the rear tyre, caused by what looks like part of a blade left of the road. Thinking this was a good time to practice changing tubes on my KLR I took the rear wheel off and tried to remove the Mitas E-07 tyre. F#ck me...

I had the opportunity to spend a couple of hours with Kamanya, DarthVader and co. learning the finer art of sand riding on the Atlantis dunes on Saturday. The most sand riding I had done up to this point were some sandy sections on some of the back roads I like to ride when I get the chance. It...

Afternoon all. My name is Ian Gage, I live in Cape Town and I have just taken ownership of a 2011 KLR 650.  :biggrin: I do a lot of 4x4'ing with my wife but decided being stuck in traffic for a couple of hours a day is just too much torture so decided to get back onto a bike. My face is still...
