  1. that front brake disc....
  2. Strobes? As in Saturday Night Fever?
  3. It's on the WildDogs forum too but he doesn't provide contact details. His avatar says he's in NorthWest . http://www.wilddog.za.net/forum/index.php?topic=214956.0
  4. Spotted in a Pick n Pay parking lot yesterday. Not mine but man...
  5. Many likes from me... How could you tire of shots like that?

    Didn't he lose the back end? Looked like it to me..
  9. "Thats definite heat damage, more than likely no lubrication. Is it running premix or an autolube. Running in needs to be done at a richer ratio. probably 30:1, normal running at 40:1 although I run my bike at 32:1 as standard. Affects performance but reliability is more important to me." Steven, Isn't that two different reasons? Each can happen independent of the other.
  10. So.... You know the obvious question, don't you?

  12. Cape Town waking up....
  13. Couldn't sleep Friday night so early Saddy morning, with a flask of coffee, this was the result..
  14. What of the "We think" part?
  15. Grebel, I absolutely agree with you. It's initially fun to be problem-hunting but only if you find it relatively easily. After that the sense of frustration way outweighs any sense of accomplishment. It's not something like a defective O-ring somewhere, is it?
  16. Fuel starvation or heat related? Just a shot.... Have you had it looked at? Edit: Great photos and good time with the young fella.
  17. Back to a more pleasant topic. Went up Lion's Head early this morning for coffee. Thought I'd be the first but man, about 100 cars and people running walking everywhere. Good for them..

    Thing is you guys are shooting at a moving target. In a question of a matter of opinion, you are both right. It's a fact which can't be proved because of different variables so the best you can offer is an opinion. Meaning that you can't be wrong.
  19. I have only chosen a few stills from my video but pretty much the whole way up Chappies it was like this on both sides of the road. Throw in dog walkers, runners and cars and it's become a place to avoid if you want to enjoy yourself. The sense of entitlement of the cyclists is amazing with may of them laughing at me. Ah well.
  20. Riding up Chappies yesterday...It's a lottery with guys riding their bicycle like this.....

    ..And Darren Binder gets away with the first live curse during post-race interview..Haha
  23. Weird how you assume it's somehow related to the work you just did on it..Well, I did, anyway I'm sure there's some psychological term to explain that.
  24. Let me know when you go for your first ride....Right behind ya..
  25. ..And then there is the thorny problem of appropriate clothing for the bike. Leather and open face for Harley and naked bikes or Cordura and peaked dual sport for Dual sports/Scramblers.
