OK, it's sold... with all the extras. Thanks to everyone who gave advice and showed interest (bumped my ad).

Chopperpilot Thanks again for the info and useful advice. As I said in my first post I've got two more bikes to keep me in trouble, one of which is a trials bike that I recently bought to hone my skills... Which appears to be working, as I've become far more proficient at falling off! I am...

Nice bike you've got there. What colour is your spring? I didn't realise the red spring wasn't standard. Thanks for the info... and interesting suggestion to sell extra's separately.

Yip, whitefish is correct, it's red... but why do you ask? Did the bike come with different colours/spring rates?... if so I hope red is what you're looking for!

Price dropped to R36k.

Awesome. And thanks.

Here are a few more photo's, taken this morning...

Another option I like is to highlight several photo's, right click, "Send to" and then "Mail recipient". It will open an image compression window. Select desired resolution and click "Attach". Should create a new email with files attached. Copy & paste files back into windows explorer. Only...

You've got me there George... unfortunately I failed to upload them last night after posting my text.

Sweet, thanks for the thumbs up guys!

Day Six At this point I was quite ready to get back to Beaufort West, and my rear tyre was finished with barely any tread left. It also had a radial cut on the sidewall that I was a bit concerned about. So I just took the tar straight back to Beaufort West, via Ceres. I was grateful to find my...

Day Five I met an Englishman the next morning in the camp site. He was on his way to Namibia with his girlfriend on a DR200 (the smaller version of my bike). He didn't have any tools, and his chain and rear sprocket needed to be replaced. None of this seemed to faze him. Clearly I've been over...

Day Four I was on my way to the Cederberg. My work colleague had given me a track that I believe is the old postal road out of the Tankwa. That was really fantastic riding. I came across a 4x4 route along the way, which I enjoyed immensely. There was a section where the track would go straight...

Day Three I decided that I would spend another night at the lodge so that I could spend my third day driving around the park, without losing time loading the bike, worrying where I would stay that night and without the hassle of having a bag on the bike. A work colleague had told me about a...

Day Two In the morning I met another dog who saw my bike and wanted to know where I was going. He gave me some advice on how to cut out some tar on my way to Middlepos, and then invited me to have a drink on his friend's farm, which was en route. After a drink I was back on the road, making my...

Day One Day one started easily enough on some lovely graded roads including De Jagers Pass. I worked my way through to Loxton where I was grateful to have my work colleague's Garmin. Without it I may never have found the petrol pump in Loxton. Although I did find I had great consumption when...

The trip started with the intention of driving to Cape Town to swap bikes with another dog, and then spend a week riding his bike in the Cape before returning home. Unfortunately the deal fell through, but I had already booked my leave and was looking forward to a week of riding, so instead I...
