The neutral light switch has gone manky and half the time I can't get it started without lots of swearing and pushing. Now my question, if I cut the wires going to the switch and join them, will Doris think she's in neutral and start no matter what gear she's in. WE survived many decades...

Bikes fall into their own classification for SANRAL tolls. It is very complex and not cheap.... about 1/3rd to 1/4 cheaper than a car. Have a look here to calculate toll fees .... www.sanral.co.za/tollcalc

Yesterday in Evildale I got stopped by an SAP officer who wanted to fine me R1500 for not having my license (I was 500m from home and going to shop) .... then he was very open about lthe fact that I could buy him lunch!!

You ... if visibility is such an important aspect of safety, why cant I buy a bright dayglo helmet anywhere. U Usually a helmet sticks out above car roofs so I'm pretty sure it would be worthwhile ..... I'm goin to paint my Airoh mat dayglo yello!!

Yesterday I did a "Hey! I wonder where that road goes" trip home from Red Star Raceway near Delmas. I sort of headed towards Dronkworspruit and hooked a left down a dirst road before I got near the dam. A small bridge took me over a river and into muddy mielie field roads. Then I got horribly...

Anyone got a cheap ex powersport class 250/400 track bike .... it won't be used on the road so lights etc are not important and neither are papers. Ideally I'm looking for a Honda CBR400 or VFR400 but I'll look at anything including 250 2smokes.

Have a look at this ....https://500kle.aventure.free.fr/500_KLE_e.html

I discovered today that the first part of my KLE to scrape the tar is the rear brake pedal but I'm not sure if this was after the footrest folded .... very interesting moment!! Going round a r/h corner I hit a bump and my soggy suspension nearly put me on the deck ....

Interesting rear number plates ....

Help ... any dogs out there who can tell my how tall an early Transalp 600  is compared to the Transalp 650 or a newish model KLR? I want to know if the 600's seat height is less than the 650 or KLR as those are too big for my stumps. I currently have a KLE with very soggy suspension which is...

The number plate on my KLE was stolen yesterday in the hour or so I was there to meet someone. As it is was pop-rivited onto the new type mounting, the scumbuckets simply bent the mounting backwards and forwards until it broke off ..... Bike was parked at the usual (informal) bike parking at...

Cave Girl's Honda was stolen from somewhere close to me and it got me thinking. I park my bike in the driveway near the lounge and it is visible from the street so last night I locked it to the burglar bars. What do other people do to secure their bikes or where do they park them? When I...

Wed, Thurs and Friday i used my KLE500 in traffic only with no highway use and I got a shock when it went onto reserve well before the usual 200km. I filled up today and it took 11.7 litres with the odo on 184km to give a figure of less than 16km per litre. My usual consumtion for 50/50 highway...

We all call it anti-freeze, but the reality is that it is, perhaps even more importantly, a summer coolant. I just went to get some and was horrified at the pricing. 1-litre of some brand I've never heard of was R19.50 but a litre of Castrol is a whopping R70.00!! I bought the Castrol ...
