So, after my 800GS was shipped to CT, the transport guy starts it up to get it off the trailer (for whatever reason). He said the bike just hit the red line in no time, so he shut it off again... Does this make any sort of sense? It was perfect when he collected it. Now there are issues. His...

So last Friday I decided to head out to Darlington Dam via Greystone, seeing that it was my last day of leave. I left at 05:00. At about 05:30 I took the Glenconnor turnoff (point B on the map). About 1km onto the gravel road, I got to a "Road Closed" sign. Flood damage. Crap. So I decided to...

So on Saturday I decided that I'm going to look the the fork to Steytlerville again. This time I knew the route, and I knew that the fork was 36km from the Sandrivier dam. Lucky for me I took my Camelback and a few eats with. The wind was terrible, but I was not going to let that get me down...

'Lo all Just a quick bit of background: I don't use a high-pressure washer or the like to wash my cars or the bike. I only use the garden hose with my thumb to direct water and adjust the pressure. I use Meguiar's NXT shampoo. I rinse the car/bike only with running water after the wash, and...

So, after a few exploratory views on Google Earth and Google Maps, I decided to give the gravel route between Rocklands (just outside Uitenhage for those who do not know) to Patensie a go. This was also partly due to a chat I had with an old school buddy the other day. Saturday morning, 06:30...

'Lo All My GS might be is for sale if there is a buyer for her. Nothing wrong with the bike - or with me for that matter. I love her. Had her for 6 months. I will keep her without batting an eyelid if I don't find a serious buyer. I'm just not going to get to ride her as often as I'd like to...

This is a concept I find very interesting, so I am keen to see how many others do it... :biggrin: ;)

Yup, got home, and there it was. A little dirty from the transport (we had a bit of rain - YAY!), but still looking impressive standing in my MIL's driveway, dwarfing her Midge. :-) I took it for a quick spin around the block, and then headed home. Parked it in the graatch, cleaned it a little...

Howzit guys and gals I am in four minds at the moment as to what bike to buy, so I need help, please. Urgently! Bike 1: Pre 2008 KLR. Cheap enough to be a good starting point, but will it last me if I want to venture further off the beaten track? How reliable would these be? Brakes not the...
