Being quick to bitch and moan about service I thought it good to post about my most recent experience at KTM Cape Town. Personally, the following are important to me when it comes to dealerships: 1. Sales people must know their stuff and always take potential clients serious. 2. Parts guys...

A word of commendation. Had the KTM "pleasure device" serviced at KTM Cape Town yesterday. Based on all the negative sentiments toward previous activities at the old Western Cape shop, I had my reservations. However, I must commend Eddie and the other guys at KTM Cape Town on their...

I have a RAM mount for a Garmin Quest that I'd like to sell. There are some other goodies too like the car mount and wall charger that I'll gooi in. PM me for detials.

A 2006 KTM 990 Adventure S, stock standard, very good condition, 27 000 km on the clock for sale. Serious seller, PM me for details. Oh, and don't even bother if your feet won't touch the ground.

Just as I was freezing off my nuts this evening, I though back to the blistering 52 Deg Cel (Shade). I once enjoyed while traveling near Liwonde in Malawi, in the Rift Valley. Any other maximums?

I have a set of used GS front and rear Metzeller Tourance R 17 X 150 and R 19 X Standard GS size available to the first guy/gal who can deliver a bottle of...PM me for more details. Anyway, the front has a mere 7000 k's on it and the rear around 4500 k's. Both are still worth the trouble. I...

A frosty Sunday morning, most people still snug in bed, Temik and I were fine tuning suspensions and tyre pressures when suddenly we were awed by this beautifull sunrise in the Cederbergs. Aren't we lucky. Disclaimer: The fact that this scene appears a little orange might be due to the...

Temik my bradder, wa is jy. Vertel die mense biekie van jouself my bra. :lol:

I hear the tyre has been commercialized in North America. Has anybody seen a pic of this?

I wear a pair of Fox pants...coz they are so comfy and slightly loose which allow me lotsa freedom to stand and move around. I know their not safe though. Any chance you might know of a pair that could fit my requirements? :wink: Mark H, I quite smaak your cammo pants. What are they?

My blue-biked-brother (alias Batman) and I departed on Thursday afternoor for some Garden Route, the Hell and Baviaans weekend adventure fun. We planned to sleep in Wilderness, gooi from George to Oudtshoorn for brekkie and then have lunch in the Hell, sleep somewhere in the Baviaans, only out...

LS recently referred me to a dealer where I bought a K&N filter. So now I have many questions like: 1. How often do I clean it? 2. What can I use to clean it? Can I use prepsol and petrol? 3. What can I use to treat it with? Why does regular engine oil sound so nice? 4. How long does it really...

I hava da iPod and I used to listen to mu while I was gooing. However, Kat once convinced me not to listen while I ride and I didn't for a while (he went on about chain failure and tubed tyres and safety etc.). I again started listening. Do you listen? What do you listen to? How is it rigged, I...

I got asked this question over the weekend. I say yes. What do you think?

When I am gooing with my GS around 5500 rpm it feels like it realy takes off. I think it has something to do with the second set of spark plugs or something. Anyway, after I had the Akra system fitted it kinda hesitated around 5500 before it actually got that second wind. This hesitation became...

On the weekend trip to Ludz in Nam, we stopped over for light lunch, some petrol and some cooldrinks at the Seeheim hotel in Namibia. We were welcomed and asked to make ourselves at home. We quickly drank ourselves around 3 cokes each and had a snackwich samie with a side salad instead of...

This is the sickening pic I took of my mates' 12 GS Adventure Sooper Dooper bike. 10 000 K's on it, 2 months old. Where was this pic taken you might wonder? In Aus, Namibia. Why is it being towed? We don't know. It was doing fine one moment, the next it was dead. Morsdood. Started then died...

I fitted the top box. That very expensive, alluminium, expandible top box. The reason, mainly to reduce the "backseat" concerns about the possibility of falling off but also to maybe fit in the occasional six pack or maybe a briefcase when going to town. When it was fitted, just as I handed...

This question has been bothering me since joined this forum. The GS does not come standard with the wonderfull suspension our KTM brothers enjoy. Sure, they are two different bikes meant for two different riding styles, but sometimes we still have to go over the same roads. I went browsing the...
