My 82 model is up for reluctant sale as I'm moving into a smaller place. Was fully rebuilt 6 or so years ago and raced VMX and Vinduro. Broke 2 or 3rd gear a few years ago and while I've sourced a new gear cluster and had the gears undercut I've never reassembled, It will need new bearing and...

Esp for 2SD! Check out Troy Corser at 2018 Goodwood Festival. Bike 11 is a 1929 BMW R57, supercharged, girder forks, rigid back end, brakes the size of shoe polish tins, right hand gear change. The commentators have it incorrect for the first bit. He keeps his right hand on the throttle and...

Hi all I am thinking of buying a G450X (a lot of bike for not much money) as a short commuter - fifteen kays for freeway and then some suburban roads. Obviously I will be looking for one that's on the road and with papers. What's the collective opinion from the tribe? And any issues to look...

Hi all, I have completely drifted away from Enduro style riding - bashing rocks all day long is not my scene and now concentrating more on VMX and the odd occasional MX funday. Up til now I have been using my 300 Gas Gas on the MX track sommer with lights and Hyde protection etc and while...

I have a rebuilt 1956 Horex Resident that has been rebuilt in a cafe racer style. This is a German built bike, extremely rare in South Africa, and highly sought after in Europe. It looks great and runs very well. Lots of chrome and shiney aluminium, dropped bars, humpy seat, rear sets with...

Hi guys, I really enjoy looking at everyones build and the whole cafe racer / minimalistic thing seems to be taking off. So after I decided to fianlly register I decided to show off something I built six or more years back when I realised that it would be impossible to find all the missing...
