Doo done this past weekend by Chris Schinn in PE. Piece of mind at last. About 12000km on the clock. doo and spring was still in tact and in pretty good nick.

Mooi! Well done, BigE.

Black Label for KLR and Castle for me.

Brilliant. That gives me time to make a plan. I'm sure I can get up there before the end of the year. Thanks boet.

Anyone going to Hogsback next week via Grahamstown? I can't get there- going in the opposite direction.

There is talk that it may return to Africa- East Africa and perhaps a little further south- in 2011, possibly. https://www.sport24.co.za/Content/Motorsport/256/ac1aa49c6f6c4a4cb7fc93ab03818207/24-11-2009-05-53/Dakar_to_return_to_Africa

As little as that? ;) Thanks RodC. I would probably have to have it couriered- may have to take you up on that if I can't get one for less than the price of couriering the thing. Not many people I know do the Grahamstown-Bloem run!

What can I expect to pay for a new KLR standard exhaust? Anybody?

I test-rode BigE's KLE on Saturday and was very impressed. He's obviously looked after it well and it's in great nick. I'm a big guy and the handle-bar raisers made things a lot easier. So, why didn't I buy it? In the end I just can't get rid of my KLR. I love it too much and has given me so...

Well, I think I will start in Grahamstown and work outwards to bathurst and then possibly PE and after that Bloem. Edgy, do you think you can bring it into town and then mail me when you have it? Let me know what you want for it.

Ja, taht's what I thought. I'll check what shape it is first.

I assume this exhaust will fit a 2006 model KLR? I am a mechanical dunce, so confirmation of this would be great.

Thanks Fugly.

Hi all My bike is currenly sitting at Automotorcycles in PE (Govan Mbeki Ave.) for a service. I am looking for someone trustworthy (!) to install an Eagle Mike doohickey and springs. Who in PE can do this for me? Unfortunately, I probably won't be there to watch or assist as I am in...

Here's the link to the advert for your mate who is looking for the KLR: https://wilddog.net.za/forum/index.php?topic=29643.0

Currently the doohickey's fuel consuption is zero and the same with is oil consumption. The doo has not rust, is completely unscratched and in absolute mint condition. The KLR, well, its in excellent conditon and I will gladly throw in a service at a Kawa agent before any sale as well. It...

I may be keen, but the KLR will have to go first. Let's see what happens.

Trying again, see first post.

BigE, how tall are you? I'm about 1.96m, and 135kg. I'm actually wanting to replace my KLR with something like a KLE. Nothing wrong with the KLR, I just think the KLE would a better "fit" for me and what I use a bike for. But I would have to sell the KLR first.

Both our cars were giving up the ghost at the same time, but needed reliable transport. Decided we needed to get something that can take the rough roads because we like to go out into the sticks. So bought a gas-guzzling double cab. But I still needed a run-around and couldn't afford another car...
