Hey guys, trying to get a friend into the dirt - I've manged to get her everything she needs other than some boots. Does anyone have any in a corner somewhere? Happy to buy them, obviously. Not too fussed on Brand (but they will be used for funduros more than anything else).

The title says it all really :) Pretty sure that I can modify any cover to fit..

Hello Dogs! I am looking for a neatish XR for a first-time rider. Papers a requirement as it will be used to commute to school when not riding in the mountains with me on weekends haha.. I'm not too fussed about location - there are plenty trustworthy bike towing services :)

Hi guys, I am wanting to build a track bike with an mx 250 engine in it. Basically, I need the engine (running would be great but not necessary) frame and any electronics necessary. The rest is pretty optional :) Not fussy about general condition etc!  O0

Hey guys, Going to make this short and sweet - on the hunt for a set of hand-guards. Any condition. Let me know? Western Cape would be ideal!  :P

Before she goes on gumtree, I thought I'd look for a good (better) home for her here amongst you lot. I planned to tour Africa on this lady - starts on second kick most days. Otherwise first :) Unfortunately we have moved into a smaller flat with too little garage space and I refuse to let...

Hey guys, Looking for a YZ250 (or similar) rear shock. Know of anything looking for a new home in a pile of junk (or treasure..)?

Hey guys, I need to sell my Dakar to make financial space for another project. Mechanically she is lovely. She is used on a daily basis - even in this kak weather - to go to work and back. Weekends sees her in the bush / trails getting me from A to B, taking photographs of adventure...

Hey guys, I am having to let my baby go to make room for other things to come :( She has ABS, Heated Grips and most NB of all - WP suspension done by Mike in Noordehoek. She needs to sell fast... please let me know via email if you're interested.. R40 000...

Hi guys, Now that my KX250 is basically fully restored (pics coming before you all start demanding the writeup).. do any of you know of someone looking to rehome an old CB750 or something similar? Got a road bike that is taking up space / looking for a new, loving home, etc  O0

Hi guys, I have found a pair of complete wheels that I'd like to put onto the KX250 restoration. Do any of you have experience in 'hot swapping' wheels? What should I look out for? I am after the rear wheel so that I can use the '86 swingarm which has disc breaks. Is it going to be worth...

Hi guys, So my '85er is almost, oh so almost running! The last thing I need to sort out - until I find something else wrong - is the rear suspension. It's completely pap. I took it out and there's no pressure at all in the gas/nitrogen canister. I pumped it up with my foot pump and it...

Hi guys, So I've been a little busy.. Does anyone here know how I can 'safely' remove the front forks from the tripples in the picture below? I want to get the frame powder coated, but need to get these off first.. The bike/frame is a '85 - I want to ride it in the VMX. The only issue is...

Hi guys, I'm looking for some help here. I have a '86 frame that I want to move my '85 onto but I need a rear wheel with disk mount-hub. Newbie question here, but surely there are a few options here and I'm not limited to the 'exact' 86 wheel that belonged to this frame? Can I use, for...

Hi guys, I'm not sure if it makes a huge difference - the year model - but the frame is a '85 - '89. I am looking for a complete wheel with disk break mount? Anyone have one lying around or an idea of where I can look for one in the WCape area? O0

Hi guys, Some acvice for a newbie please: I've bought a project bike to ride in the VMW - a '85 KX250. I need to rebuild her engine. I have no idea what I am doing, however my service manual is on its way thanks to loot.co.za So while that is posted over (2 weeks or so to go..) I would...

Well gents after a lot of searching it looks like I've found my first 2 stroke! It even qualifies for the VMX! This beauty (she is actually in really bad condition but what do you expect for a bike that was found rotting on a farm 300kms outside of CPT?!) is now parked in the garage, ready for...

Hey Hoggies, Does anyone have any idea what it costs to get a bike down to the sunny Cape from JHB? More NB does anyone have any connections that perhaps have some space on a truck?  O0

Hi guys, I'm a nwebie to the MX scene and on the hunt for a lekker bike that I can thrash around. By lekker, I mean CHEAP. Ideally I'd like to get a bike that meets the enduro specifications as well as MX. If I had to choose, I'd go Enduro. So far on the list is a '91 Susuki RM125 ; '93...

Hi guys, I'm wanting to get a cheap, nasty, old bike and fix her up to get into this whole MX jol. I love my Dakkie, but need something I can treat like a mountain bike! What are your thoughts on the RM125? '91 model? It's a toss-up between this and a YZ150 (or WR200) really. Parts for...
