I am selling my beloved Dakar  :'( It has been used for daily commuting the last two years, but the kids don't fit so we got a second car. Now there are plans afoot to cross an ocean, and although it a fantastic bike, it's not so good at riding over waves... I have not gotten round to any...

Hi All Now that the Dakar is in service it is time to tweak some things. I am looking for bar risers and a main stand. If anyone has old stock lying around in the garage or from an old bike or whatever, please give me a shout. Hugo

So i was still snug in bed last week Sunday, completely unaware of the bunch of Dogs heading out on the Alternative route. So to make up for missing it, how about heading out again tomorrow? EDIT I should add that I do not know the route. The once that I was meant to do it i ran out of fuel  >:(

I am sure this question has been asked, but upon some searching I only found older threads, so here goes: Where in Cape Town (preferably Southern Suburbs, but not essential) can I take My KLR for some TLC. I don't have the time/space/patience/tools to take her apart myself, and need a bit more...

I need some advice with regards to fuel consumption in sand riding. I realise it all depends on how hard you ride, but if most of a day is going to be spent in riverbed sand, by how much should I expect my fuel consumption to increase? I am interested in both KLR650 and Dakar consumption, bikes...

Am looking for a fairly cheap 2nd-hand tankbag. preferably in CT area, but Randburg can do as well. Thing must at least have wrking zips and not too many holes.

Cutting a long story short, I have a brand new (read clean) KLR centre stand in PE and I need it in Cape Town. Is there anyone coming this way soon? It can be picked up at Midas in Huegh Rd, Walmer. Help will be appreciated (and rewarded, somehow :) )

2007 Bajaj Pulsar 180. Am the second owner of this little commuter. Am upgrading to a KLR. Can reccomend the bike for shorter ppl (I am 1.84 and am a bit too tall for it - knees a bit too bent etc). Fuel comsumption is around 40-45km/l. . I am at UCT and will most likely get the bike to campus...

My sister is coming to visit CT next weekend and I'm lifting her around on the bike. If anyone has a spare bike jacket (of small sizing) that I can borrow for the weekend it will be very much appreciated. I have a helmet and gloves but would prefer it if she had a decent jacket. Any generous...

I have read what several people have already said about their near misses, but most of us have to deal with drivers who just dont care. I find it inspiring to hear how some people manage to handle scenarios in a calm way - will hopefully help if I am ever in a scenario where I need to actualy...

I ride a Bajaj Pulsar 180 and no, its not a happy chappie in the dirt (thus i dont take it there), but its all i have now. It went in for a service at 6800km and has since done around 500km. About 120km back i started hearing a funny "plink" sound, esp when slowing down near a stop in 1st or...

Idea stolen from another topic relating to the 1200GS, I was wondering what the higest Dakar odo is that you have seen. How long do these bikes last?

I have had the wonderfull misfortune of having my one pannier bad slashed off in the CPT CBD  :(. I have NO idea what the bergies are gona do with a WiFi card, an empty lunchbox and a can chainwax, but the biggest loss to me is the bag. Ironically the other one had a realy nice blanket in it...

My dad is in the construction industry in JHB and is looking for a bike. Reasons for bike - petrol consumption and ease of commute. I have convinced him that DuelSport is the way as he needs to use it on construction sites. They also own a smallholding in the Midlands which would mean some...

So i decided to stop being a lurker and actualy take part. I am at the moment without DS bike, but have been on 2 wheels for most of my life, motorised since i could get my 1st learners (still dont have car license - oops). Now only commuting and taking the odd ride out on the road, but my bike...
