    12V Male Plug for KTM 990

    I've been searching the internet without much success for this. Where can I find a male plug that will fit the GPS/Cigarette lighter socket on my KTM990?  It seems to be smaller than the standard ones you get in cars. Is there a place where I can buy that online in SA perhaps?  Thanks

    Stuff you've witnessed/encountered while commuting.

    In die kar op die N1 op pad Jhb toe, so net na die R21 kruising, kom daar 'n outjie op 'n CBR600 verby gevlieg, maar ek raak sommer so koud, want die verkeer vloei nie en hy was heeltemal te vinnig. Skielik is daar net rook soos karre briek. CBR in sy moer in, die kar waarin hy vas is ook helse...

    Remember that old Honda CB750?

    If you look at all the models here, I also can't find one with drums. https://www.motorcyclespecs.co.za/bikes/Honda%20.htm

    Remember that old Honda CB750?

    If you understand antiques you'll probably understand this. I don't, but what I know is that both are damn ugly and way overpriced.

    Spoke adjustment / "truing" in Pretoria?

    The wheel is fitted and what a pleasure the test drive was! So smooth and no need anymore to battle with shaking handlebars!  :ricky: Also very relieved to look back now and see that the bent rim was the only cause of the problem. I was fearing a bent frame or something else which will equal...

    Spoke adjustment / "truing" in Pretoria?

    It's the second time I get this advice.  Will start saving then, I bought the bike with the bent rim.  Wonder what the previous owner did as it was quite a dent.  I'm not sure if it is OEM - on the side there is a label that says "saXess".

    Spoke adjustment / "truing" in Pretoria?

    Got it back today and asked them to spin the wheel just so I can see what it's like now - seems perfectly straight and true now - satisfied. Looking forward to driving the bike tonight after I put the wheel back.

    Spoke adjustment / "truing" in Pretoria?

    I can also add that the spokes were rusted which added to the length of the job, because it first needs to be de-rusted otherwise you can't turn the nipple attached to the spoke or something like that.

    Spoke adjustment / "truing" in Pretoria?

    Hi, I took it in last week Tuesday.  George put the wheel on a tool there so that it could spin to look at how much it was bent in order to do a quote.  Quite a huge dent on the one side and the rim also appeared to be off center from the hub.  Understand now why my steering was shaking so...

    Jumping a 990

    Check bietjie hier: "The battery does not need to be dismounted to charge." "Jump starts are not recommended since they can damage the motorcycle's electronic system."
