  1. Not spongy and the coin test reveals no differences in sounds. I'm thinking the bike lock may have given it a bit of a knock while loading the bikes. No chance of the Thule clamp causing that? We are anal about over tightening. Clamp should hold bike upright and not in place. We have velcro straps to hold them safely in place. Edit: The spot is an oval shape.
  2. Noticed this on the one side of my frame. Section just before the seat tube intersection and above the shock. Never had an off with the bike. Does it look like a frame or paint crack?
  3. https://share.temu.com/LbOb5Mh15BB Get these. Straps easily around the fork leg. Locally sold by 4x4 places as Quick Fist
  4. Can confirm the 1300 is that phenomenal.
  5. Found those locks to be pretty much useless as the clamp can just be pulled off the frame and bike is gone. Save the money and just buy a cable lock to secure the bikes.
  6. I'm there for 4 days so I should be able to get some riding in. Only problem is I need a bike dropped off at the club for me....
  7. Hi all. Hope everyone is good. I'm heading to Karkloof on the motorbike but I still want to get a good ride in. You don't go there and not ride their trails. I know they rent out bikes but I would like something a little bit more capable. Specifically an eBike so I can venture out a little further for more fun. Anyone in the area that rents more well specced bikes and that can deliver it to the club mid-week?
  8. https://www.chamberlains.co.za/quick-fist-original-rubber-clamps-25-57mm-2-pack-10010-1084349 This works super well for me. R229 for the win!
  9. Couple of mil in damages. Bike Kings and Bike Shop both wiped out! Sad and shocked.
  10. 2024 R1300GS Trophy with Enduro pack and sport suspension. Absolute hoot offroad. Freaking torque monster. This thing wants to turn the earth.
  11. This happened in April
  12. Never offer to deliver or allow a courier to collect. Always tell a buyer you will meet at xxx bike shop and only conclude the deal upon viewing. This is if you feel unsure about the deal. They immediately disappear when I say that.
  13. Find a good Biokinetcist. Physios are only that good. They treat the symptoms, a good bio will find the cause.
  14. This guy gets it! We need speed and convenience.
  15. Fair point. That sounds like a me problem then
  16. Good morning fellow addicts The lady and I were talking and we are considering moving to a bean to cup machine. In order to do so we will be selling the Rancilio setup to fund the purchase. What could be realistically ask for this: Everything is about 6 years old and in use daily to make about 4 to 5 cups. Silivia machine Rocky Doser grinder (Needs a small repair. The dosser arm gear is stripped) Two drawer stand All baskets and bits. Bottomless Portafilter Overall in really good condition. Essentially this: https://heavenlycoffees.com/products/rancilio-silvia-serious-combo
  17. I think you only have 4 dealerships in the entire South Africa for Triumph.
  18. Have you considered the BMW F900GS? Otherwise the Africa Twin takes it for me. Better dealer support than Triumph and it looks better.
  19. What do you get out of this referral link?
  20. Something like this? https://bikehub.co.za/classifieds/item/saddle-bags-and-on-bike-storage/548699/revelate-mag-tank-2000-top-tube-bag
  21. Bikehub Pay for everything. Even a R5 bolt.
  22. Reflects very poorly on Honda. PS. I need a good deal on a Honda Elevate. Which dealership are you at?
  23. Shouldn't have to pull strings to get service.
  24. Any chance you have a GPX to share?
