I have become obsessed with watching this on YouTube. These guys are insane! The throttle and brake control needs to be on point. I see there is a SA Facebook page but looks to be dormant since 2020. Anyone tried this before? Shorter vid There are lots of vids out there. Looks like...

Hi There I have read the threads on here, but I have not found the same symptoms in the other threads, so please excuse if this has been covered and I missed it. 2007 610i SM as the title suggests. Bike starts and idles although a bit rough. When riding, as soon as the revs climb it starts to...

Ad says it all - not interested in paying thousands in legend tax, hence why not looking on Gomboom.

I have a mate I'm trying to get into dual sport/Adv riding. He has ridden road bikes for years but never been off road. We'll be doing day trips to start and then getting into longer rides. We'll be doing sand, rough stuff, mud etc. Lots of training before the actual trips start. His budget is...

Hi I missed two pretty awesome deals earlier this week. A heads up if anyone wants to sell their DR. I would prefer to view if possible but have a mate or two that I trust in other centres that could look for me. I do not want a fixer upper - needs to have been properly maintained etc. Thanks

So we are slowly making our way to winter. I am in the market for a new bike (read demo or low km bike) and want to know if the myth of mid winter bike specials is real? Logically there should be some push from dealers as especially in the Cape the winter rain keeps the fair weather bikers in...

Hi My GS needs a service, beyond the usual stuff I am capable of. Not interested in stealers, someone in the Cape that can service GS's well without me needing a bond. It is a 2006 model with abs etc. Will be 40 000km Thanks

Hi There are a few of us that only have a bike for transport. So which bike do you own or have you owned that doubles well as a "car" i.e. comfortable, has storage (boot), and is easy to use day to day. Currently my car is the R1200GS (2006) It has a shaft (no oiling chains), it is comfy (big...

Fits a full face adv helmet or a jacket. Comes with base plate and all fittings M

Hi I put an Adv screen on my standard GS and the wind around my head is ridiculous. I first had the screen on the max and the wind at speed would make my eyes blur because it was so dirty. I have moved the screen down to middle and the wind is still not comfortable. I am 1.8m tall and the...

Hi Want to put a GSA screen on my standard GS. Unfortunately the price vendors want for a piece of bent metal is ridiculous. Does anyone have an old or spare bracket lying around that will not cost me an arm and a leg? Thanks

Not an LC version (if that makes a diff) I am based in the Centurion, Gauteng area but will pay postage if necessary. Thanks

I have the BMW carrier. If I remove the BMW base plate, will the standard plate that comes with the SHAD fit? The boxes are really well priced but if I have to buy the whole bang shoot then buying a BM box will be cheaper. Anyone that has fitted a SHAD that can help? Thanks

Hi Dogs It is always good to see when our local manufacturers stand behind their products. I have a pair of easy overs where the zips were separating. I sent them to X-Kulcha and they are repairing for free. The pants are not new but well looked after and they could see that it was a...

It is a 2006 1200 GS with 28 000 original km on. Has crash bars, spots, belly pan, Leo Vince slip on with a decat, also couple of others like potentiometer cover, big foot stand etc. All for the princely sum of 65K. What say you dogs? M p.s. plastics etc. still look new

Hi I have a long out of warranty 1200 that needs a good going over. Who would you recommend? BMW are just too expensive and the quality of work related to the price just is not there! Thanks

Hi I have the BMW carrier with the BMW plate but no top box (fell off and died). I like the Shad's but need to know if the shad plate will attach to the BMW carrier. I want the SH40 but if anyone has done this please reply and post pics if possible. Thanks
