The Walkerville rangers & Friends wish to Thank Dean & Ronnie from DNA Motorcycles https://www.dnamotorcycles.co.za/catalog/ for the 2x sponsored bikes, which were taken through their paces this past weekend.

DNA Motorcycles celebrated their 10th Anniversary on Saturday 2009/08/29 at their premises Show Room : Clearview Village, Corner Hendrik Potgieter and Gordon Road, Florida Glen, Gauteng Tel: +27 (0) 11 472 6434.

The bikes were lined up for the testing at the workshops of Doctor KLR in Walkerville and our friends joined us for the exciting day planned. Professional riders, amateurs and those just eager to ride arrived early in the morning for the obligatory cup of coffee under the marque provided by DNA Motorcycles.

And the Walkerville Rangers, show no prejudice and even line up the KTM’s and anything which moves on two wheels, for the day of fun.

Now here is an interesting modification to Clint’s bike. It’s the latest designed Kill Switch. Marco is taking Clint to the bike to demonstrate the correct manner of switching off a bike when you decide to drop it in a hurry.

Strategically mounted in full view of the rider, the obligatory big yellow knob, with very red button, which gets depressed, when you need to cut your motor in a hurry.
Clint gets the idea and has a practice run to “KILL SWITCH”

Our last run in Barberton, saw Clint’s bike attack him when he hit the ground. Someone, forgot to “Kill Switch” and the spinning bike and back tyre took a good chunk from Clint’s riding pant and arse.

So… don’t worry Clint, it’s easy and with enough practice, you will soon learn to push down the red round button on the yellow box.  It’s now your official “KILL SWITCH”, when you stop your bike, before it bites you on your arse again.

The big parade for the DNA Motorcycles Sponsored ride.

Marco’s pride and joy, new toy, which he dragged back from Barberton. Doctor KRL, put it together, had it sprayed, spayed and added some obligatory KLR cable ties. The KLX 300. The expression on Marco’s face when riding his new bitch, says it all. “I’ll never have sex again, while this baby is between my legs”
Sounds strange I know, but then again, what is normal.

Jay, looking some-what intimidating while riding.

No. 7 .. reminds me of Jack Daniels, crossing a rather rocky terrain on Doctor KLR’s property in Walkerville.

1st Rider up on DNA’s 450. James parked his BMW GS 650 F for a ride on a real bike. Spoilt with a BMW electric start, he found it a rather strange task to have to kick start a bike. And kick he did, very often as he stalled the bike. I guess changing over from a BMW straight onto the Kawa, required a bit of skill and time to adapt to the variances of the two bikes. But his feedback was, he was scared on the power produced by the 450, in comparison to his BMW 650. Let’s just say “No competition”.

Justin Deares, on his newly built up KLX 300. This boy rides hard and fast and is a champion on circuit.
