Those Dakars had the 650 Rotax motors in them if I am not mistaken. Was supposed to be a good engine that. Although a bit big and bulky with mediocre suspension for gnarly off-road riding it was by all accounts a good bike.

My mates wife had a KLE500. Relatively low stand over height as I recall. Manageable in terms of weight and power.

Soak then in water to remove the paper. The glue is a b!tch though. I have heard Doom works well and have used "Preen" aerosol stain remover in the past with success. Thinners just spreads it. Personally I am not a fan of glass bottles in a workshop. They make a mess when you drop them and you will... I would take a trip to the plastic shop and get some containers or plastic bottles.

If it is on the weekend, get out early and walk along the promenade to Ushaka and then head up to Suncoast for a coffee or breakfast. The complex has just been revamped and is quite nice with lots of restaurants to choose from for breakfast or lunch. Bike and Bean by the skate park is also an option. Watch out for the North Beach Park Run on a Saturday morning at 8am though... LOTS of people attend! Try and be off by around 10am before the masses arrive. Gets a bit chaotic... Take the kids up north to Umhlanga, Umdloti or Ballito for the rest of the day. Check out Sugar Rush Park. Loads for mom and dad as well.

Dogs too. Back in the days when milk and juice came in glass bottles.

Small trick we learned while.changing nappies was to expose the nether regions to some fresh air and then cover them up and wait a minute. Usually manages to catch the #1 in the old nappy before you put on a fresh one.... "Usually"

Mine started taking strain long before that....

Go have a look for the Dakar App. Been using it for the last three years. Daily update videos for all the categories so you can only watch what you are interested in (trucks/cars/bikes etc). You can follow your favourite rider/driver as well and they do live updates as the stage progresses. RedbullTV also doing daily highlights videos but expect that to be a bit Redbull team biased. In case you are interested, there is also a WRC app that works quite well.

I have yet to meet anybody that has regretted canceling their DSTV....

(For those on Tapatalk) *Comic Sans on* Rubbish man... As long as the other car is softer than yours, they become the crumple zone. *Comic Sans off*

If you are going to go steel, get it drawn up on CAD (some of the laser guys offer a drawing service at a small fee), and get the brackets laser cut and you can do the powdercoat/paint and assembly? If you want timber, another option is getting the brackets cut on a CNC router. You just source and supply the timber.

I like the idea of storing them like this. Obviously not the most efficient use of space but it allows you to easily see the labels and show off your collection.

Mmmmmm a dedicated wine room..... One day when I am big..... As a side note we just took delivery of our grown up Christmas presents. One mixed case from Platform 62 in Ashton and another mixed case from Lacotte Wines in Franschoek.

I am currently using a cheap MXQPRO (it says 4k on the cover but we only have a HD TV so can't comment there) and have no issues streaming Netflix, RedbullTV, Youtube, Mobdro and TVTap.

Happy Birthday Barry. I no longer have a reason to travel to Benoni... Was always a standing appointment. Beers and bull***t at the Keg. I tried to keep up with him once.... before he packed in the booze. I got schooled that day!

You should try buy straight CCA treated timber.... I told the salesman I was building a shed not a consignment of archery bows but my humour went straight over him like a frisbee over a fat Labrador.

I need to go look for this game now....

It's time to kick ass and chew bubblegum, and I'm all outta gum...! https://youtu.be/D0GZ4Y9w6o0

That will never buff out....

Making "pizza" with the dog biscuits and the "cheese"... the best thing in those packs was the glucose sweets

I have run a bag through mine and I was planning on having a look at that (only using aeropress for now but want to take the Delonghi out of storage soon and try that). I haven't done the research but I can't imagine it being more than a shim or two to set the zero point.

Just Do It Myles...

Was advertise in September 2017 and no visible movements since June 2018 until now... Maybe he's a little bit negotiable?

That would be a nice ride that.... #justsaying...

Thank you sir
