Mooi gebaar van jou. Wanneer Vaalbaas kom draai, stuur groete vir hom en sy familie van my af! :biggrin:

Please contact me via email. I have done it in 2012, meting the Heroes in every small town (not the large cities). I also made a point of visiting the corner points of the country (except Union End which is in Kgalagadi, as I was not allowed there by bike). Do yourself a favour and find a reason...

Ek is een van daardie skuldiges. En ja; hoewel ek saamstem dat dit 'n nuisance is in verkeer elke dag, het ek op hierdie stadium min keuse. Ek is in die proses om 'n huis klaar te maak en als staan in storage. Het enkele lang trips gedoen met die bike en het dus die panniers nodig gehad. Ek...

Well done guys. Jealous! Will join a ride soon!

Replace. Ek glo nogal in Paretho se 80/20 beginsel. Dit werk ook so op bande. 80% van die pap wiele wat jy kry gebeur in die laaste 20% van die band. Dit is so. Jy is reeds verby (minder as) 20%. Jy gaan jou G@T skop as jy nou 'n puncture kry. Wat het jy gespaar? R20? Replace....

Sent you a PM Deon. For this and the Duffle bag.

I agree with Gee. I bough mine second hand (Thanks again to the Dog who sold me a virtually new set). BMW clothing is like a well looked after Mercedes. I will rather buy a well kept 2nd hand Merc with a service record than a new JingYongPing. Will wear my BMW clothing even when I ride another...

Ek kan hom na werk vandag kom oplaai.

I am interested please. Is it the 40l? R750? Cannot see the condition...

Good news are: Men do not get a mid-life crises. What happens is the following: You are young and under control of your parents (as you said) - no bike. But you look at each and every one. Ride it when-ever you get a chance. You reach your 20s. You realize you can buy a bike, but the hormones...

Wow! That looks impressive. Now...how do I get hold of one? If not 2nd hand, even new?

Dear fellow dogs My arrangements for the cross-Africa trip is coming along fine. Got hold of a very nice stretcher from a fellow Dog. What I still need is a good, comprehensive toolkit for my bike. The tools one get with it is in my opinion, not enough. I noticed a few options (GPS4Africa...

Thanks for the PMs! Thanks Deon. Will contact you

Good morning Dogs Yesterday I saw a small, fold-up type stretcher sold by GPS for Africa. I am really impressed with the size and strength. Wanting to buy one, I realized it will be another piece of equipment that will only be used now and then. Is there any Dog that bought one that feels he/she...

Sub! Want that info as well. Thanks for the question...

Jissem guys! Thank you for the feedback. You give me hope! I would love to do this trip all by myself. If someone or a small group wants to join it will be fine. Always better. I do not know the route as yet. Garmin and Google maps indicates different routes. Especially the lower part of Africa...

No replies? Bump

Dear fellow Dogs I am planning a solo trip from Pretoria to Dubai around the end of this year. One hear good and bad stories. Bribing; bad roads, horrible border crossings etc. Good stories about the friendly people and beautiful scenery that you pass by. So my question is related to the...

I don't know what you guys do to get 6000km on a rear E-07. I ride a 1200 GSA and now on my third set. Each rear gave me in the region of 20 000 km and each front around 25 000 km. Yes; I ride it in (by default) as I travel to work and back (65km there; 65 km back) each day. So it has enough...

@DirtRebel From what I hear the TRAX panniers can be converted to fit the LC. But not the BMW panniers. Correct me if I am wrong please. Thanks for the info though...
