Due to circumstances beyond my control I need to reroute my planned Baviaans excursion to be in Riebeeck Kasteel (Western Cape) the weekend off 20/21 October. My question here is: Any recommendations of affordable accommodation in the area for a soon out of work DP Biker. Any WD members in that...

Did not realised the 690R came out standard with a built in Scotoiler.  ;D These KTM's are wonderfull machines. The oiler works nice, only one drawback, very very difficult to adjust the oil flow. Been battling to find the problem of where the leak is on the PitBike the past few months. Oil end...

Interesting article about a Frenchman who broke is 2CV in the Sahara, then converted it to a 2 Wheeler https://chameaudacier.free.fr/moto1.html (Use translate to convert from French to whatever language you fancy

Here is something to Bash-a-BMW for those who are bored, (wat vir my normaal lyk te wees op die forum) but then maybe some knowledgeable person out there can confirm that this is true or not or maybe I was just unlucky. My Lewensgevaarlik has done 100 000km (as posted on the Forum). I had to...

Spent a while in Mannheim Germany, courtesy the company I slaved for in exchange of money, stumbled onto this bike rally of a different kind. From what I can figure out, you attend this gathering to show off your vintage or rat bike rebuilt and trade in the left over bits and pieces, while...

I’m waiting for my Dakar (2003 single spark model) to be deported from Botswana to assess extend of damage, and to make up my mind what to do with the machine. Turf it, donate it to some charity, sell it or repair it. (A long term Project Dakar perhaps?) The bike has done now 160 000km...

The PitBike have not much options for loading the kitchen zinc and double bed on, Touratech have a option to fit the Zega panniers at a price. So I went the Pooratech route and contact a friend of mine that is in the DP Bike Touring and Accessories field. Got a frame made and some soft packs...

Many Moons ago I bought myself a 650 Dakar (2003 model) the steering bearings on this bike were replaced three times under warranty. At the end of the warranty period, (the bike had done about 70 000km) the front fork springs were replaced by a progressive spring set. – Würth. Then I bought a...

Any other owners of the KTM 690R Enduro out there - Just a question: Is it normal for this machine's radiator fan to kick in so soon? What it is, is that the radiator fan is running most of the time so it seems to me that the engine is running fairly warm nearly all the time. Even on cloudy...

Six months of intermittent trawling the net, asking the odd question, observing the scenery and recalculating my bank account, I went and bought myself a 'PitBike'. “When all else fails, read the manual” after careful inspection of the machine (at home), I noticed that both the wheels did not...

Further tests has been done on the sand riding abilities of the BMW F800GS ‘Lewensgevaarlike’ motorcycle (unfortunately no instructors were present at the time so these tests can not be verified or proven) Refer to the attached picture. Only two makes of bikes were used in this test. The hat...
