Hi guys/gals, My wife was taken out by a driver who skipped a red robot on December 30th. Her Honda E-Storm is toast but she's a tough little lady and will ride again. One cracked rib, two stitched gashes and some hefty soft tissue damage. We'd like to get her something with a little more...

I started trawling the classifieds for a decent metal lathe today. Going to keep fishing but I thought I might as well cast my line here as well. I initially thought a Myford super 7 would be nice but then I spotted a Jet bd 920-w for R12500. Unfortunately it was gone last week already. Ideally...

Hi folks. I had a perfect set of R1200GS/F800GS led indicators on my motorcycle, then one day, all of a sardine the lens on one of them disappeared. No one even said "siem salla biem", or "abracadabra". There was no applause. No attractive, distracting assistant. It it all very dissapointing. I...

Does anyone have a workshop manual for me? It's for a friend of mine. He restores old brit bikes and now he's bought a 1988 KDX200 for vintage motocross. I can get a second hand manual on Amazon R150 shipped. Can you help me to keep our randelas in SA? I'd rather get a manual here. What about a...

I hope someone can help me. I have a 36 spoke 19" rim on the bike, drum brake in hub. It looks like it has been abused with a tyre iron. It's not so bad that I can't ride but I can feel the wobble in my handle bars. I popped past Davies here in PE to see if I could have it straightened out but...

Lets's see pics of your airheads. All these standard and modified bikes in our own garages. Where are the photies?

My situation is pretty much the same as Coxwain's https://wilddog.net.za/forum/index.php?topic=126136.0 and Bees https://wilddog.net.za/forum/index.php?topic=69251.0 I went for quite a long, rough ride on Sunday down Elandsrivier road over the hill to Patensie. Then we rode 50km into Baviaans...

How will this work? Electric cars are here, they still have a way to go and I haven't seen a lot of electric trucks yet but I think it's reasonable to say that electric vehicles will play a significant role in the future of road transport. I wonder, in a world of electric vehicles, how the...

Well, I bought the ST and couriered her down to PE in a cage. On Friday last week I popped down to Jet Park to pick her up. The PO had said that he took the bike for a test ride so I decided that I would test ride the machine home. Once at the courier I grabbed my bag 'o bits loaded them on the...

I occasionaly play with electric flying machines that draw high amperage through little 3mm gold plated connecters. This led me to consider what an almighty pain in the backside it is to disconnect my BMW battery. Something I would like to do if I know I am not going to use the bike for two...

I am half way through swapping out my grey sun eaten airbox for one that I bought off of ebay (US vendor). Why did I do this? Ja, I have been asking myself that repeatedly. For cosmetic reasons. My piggy runs beautifully. I just wanted her to look neat. Photies to follow. I have just eaten my...
