Unless I misunderstand the article for the reasoning, Specialist and sporty competitor to Touratech, Wuedo is closing its doors in Germany due to the current financial crises. Of course I'm sure parts will be going for a song, not that it means anything with the Rand/Euro conversion rate. Check...

...and word has it the S1000RR will retail around R 195k when it hit shores! Eventually.

Condolences. At 08:00 this morning two motorcyclists were knocked down already here in Cape Town - and that is today only! Yesterday a police motorcyclist was knocked over and the traffic department now suddenly wants to clamp down on drivers! Instead, they should start by concentrating on...

Got to speak to KFM today who suggested I contact a bloke called Zain Johnson. Sent him an e-mail, awaiting a reply - hopefully bringing something helpful to the cause. More to follow if I hear anything.

Put yourself in the shoes of someone who wants to explore a new country on two wheels. Generally you are limited by time and/or a lack of knowledge of the destination, yet you still want to experience it in a safe yet exciting way. We don't all share the same sense of adventure purely because we...

I'll speak to KFM in the morning to see how we can approach this with their exposure. Attempts like these are at least constructive. We should make it quite clear that no one will take responsibility if you hit the lazy runts who tries to cross. There has simply been too many near-misses and...

What's up with that this morning? The N1's been backed up for miles due to this ill-thought out attempt! From there on the freeway was open all the way into Cape Town!

If it was a car the bl*ksems probably would have hijacked it - problem is, they can't ride!

As I have to carry people around often during the day in my car I can't really go to work on the bike, hence I see people daily half asleep behind the wheel endangering the life of motorcyclists from a driver's perspective! I really think we should start an awareness campaign and get Kfm...

Try to get your hands on the German Motorrad Magazine and compare the prices of both the KTM and BMW's secondhand. Chances are, even with a high mileage BMW you'll be sorted in Germany. Best of all, you'll be able to get rid of it fairly easily, even if it is via ebay.de

Colleague just told me another rider down on the N1 this morning! Anyone know anything about this?

Lucky Striker and lecap's got it mostly covered. If you MUST choose due to time etc, I'd say err on the south instead and up towards the coast (Swakop - as everybody goed there!)and then back. Damaraland has the kind of beauty that seems completely desolate until you realize it teems with...

This is the way I see it: If a clients are lost to me, I try my damnest to regain that client - that's good business sense. No thanks to crime (the biggest culprit) and the the "like" (think of "like" what you will) literally thousands of top-earners has left the country, taking their taxes with...

Saw scores of people this weekend charging through traffic lights as if they did not exist at all! The damage caused by this I'm sure goes far beyond monetary. Phoned Eskom Monday as was under the impression that I will be hit between 20:00 and 22:30, the time when you come home, settle in for...

I'll mail again to see if I get a response. Off for a few days so will check back when I can next week. Thanks for all the info!

Hold that thought on weiÃ?biers anywhere anytime! Got a date - not had one of those in a while - and she's blonde!  ;D

Bloke's a pie-lood and back this PM so will talk to him what he thinks is best and what his budget can afford. Thanks for all the suggestions!

Slap me around and call me Susan!! Round of WeiÃ?biers on me anyplace that sells it!

Whadya mean RR? I've not even posted an Intro yet! Each time I log in thinking I'm going to have Greybeard status and still, bumfluff! Thought I'll keep it short and sweet instead until the day I reach member status and will then retire in front of the computer with time to write RR's. Go on...
