Great Project. I have enjoyed the read. Thanks! One question that I cannot remember seeing in the posts: Legally, does a side car require a seat belt and the passenger to have to use it?  Also must the passenger wear a helmet? AGATT for me is obvious, just a interesting point of discussion.

Hello All My riding jacket is getting old. Where can I buy a reasonably priced good jacket in Gauteng.  Full Frontal I see has closed down. I checked for a replacement at BMW jacket, but R15k is a bit steep. Any suggestions?

I ride most days on my BMW. I wave, nod my head, lift a foot, flash the headlight (if I can remember where the darn switch is) even blip the hazards. All depends on the circumstances. I greet because it makes me feel good. From piza delivery guys to Harleys. Some greet some don't. Sent from my...

Great work If only I did not have 2 left hands and 10 thumbs I would also attempt something like this.

Yes. Same model and to my wife's great joy, it is available.

I just decided this morning that my helmet has had enough. 120 k km and 7 years. Has not been dropped and is in good overall condition. I got a new helmet with my new bike 2 years ago and that is still in the box in the garage somewhere. Mine is also black

This takes me back to the 1983 when I bought my XJ750 from Cowen and Johns Yamaha in Joburg. The lady selling me the bike was very upset because the boss wanted to fire her and would have had she not had my sale that day. Reason she refused to sell a RD350 LC to a some young chappie. She said...

Life or death does not matter. If you do not have the correct frequency license and ICASA traces you, you will be procecuted. Sent from my SM-G900H using Tapatalk

I have used the cricket bat grips for the last 4 years. The cheap one lasts about 20k km and the more expensive grip lasts about 35k km. Without them I wear the standard BMW grips down. I would suggest you buy the tool to put the grip on. Makes it a 5 min job. In my case without, could take much...

Thanks Guys Will do some copy and paste in my service instruction and hope it gets sorted.

Hello All My 1200 GS has started cutting out in heavy traffic when decelerating and when the engine is hot. It has cut out at between 85 km/h down to 20 km/h. This can be very harrowing on the M1 in the morning or afternoon. When the bike has cut out it will also only start in Neutral. It has...

Great fotos en kommentaar.

Het nie 'n clue nie. Sal in die boekie gaan kyk

My 2009 GS het 80k op. BMW het my 3 weke terug 80k aangebied op 'n inruil.

I did not think it felt so cold this week. Ride from South to Sandton or Midrand. Lowest temp measured was 0 most days round 2 degrees.

Well Said. My thoughts exactly

Lyk so Lekker. Lyk so Reg. Wens ek was ook daar.

Also claim from my company. Keep it in my jacket pocket. Works fine.

He who dies with the most toys wins. Ons het 2: 1200GS (Elke dag en naweke) en GS650 (Vroulief s'n) Sou graag meer wou hê.

I commute from the South of Joburg to Sandton every day using the N12 and M1. Round trip 60km. I just use the bike. I typically do not ride more than 20 - 30km faster than the traffic. That gives me time to avoid most incidents. I also have to let some bikes pass me, but that is ok. A thankyou...
