Well, this is a cluster https://www.advrider.com/all-bmw-internal-combustion-motos-are-currently-do-not-sell/

Nice one. Congrats. reminds me of ole Manual in fawlty towers.

Utility is a concept that needs understanding. Value is one aspect but utility is the real measure. so long as the buyer perceives the utility is higher than the cost it’s all good and looking at sales buyers are happy.

Swindon play Wrexham on Boxing Day. I will be in the Swindon area. Ought be a proper plan to go watch that game.

Absolutely, welcome to Wrexham is the most uplifting heartwarming story there is. Modern day fairy tale.

You neglected to mention yr nationality.

Ja nee

I m belgian and this Sounds like a Monty python skit.

And that’s the way it should be. the cyclist is a ****, let’s not argue that. But posting his visage online was against the law. Simple.

I know how it ends, but still going to watch it. 😂 edit: thinking about it I might even have a cameo in this series. When Aldershot played Wrexham I went down to the game. At halftime I was milling around with a pint and the camera team were interviewing super Paul mullin. I hung bout and after that interview camera kinda panned around to the small crowd that had gathered.

Jammie win. 😂 but a win is a win ole pal.

Detectorists. it’s on Netflix. What a charming series.

We have shipped 16 goals thus far. 30 percent more than any other team in the league. Woeful.

Does it work in reverse too? Asking for myself.

Not a show, but a movie on Netflix called Hell or high water. Features the dude. Although not as the dude. excellent film. Thoroughly enjoyed it.

Had a look online too. Some dealers are offering the base model for 14.995 plus you get a 500 quid Ducati voucher. With a 4 year warranty. 15 grand at todays rate is about 340k. So quite a bit cheaper in ZA. Our vat rate is 20 percent but still a large difference.

That’s a great price, you should buy one 😂

What do they cost in za? here around 16 k. 350k zar plus minus. Very sexy scoot.

It’s a lekker ride. Engaging. The 2024 duke 390 is beautiful and looks more like the 1290. Also has a new 398 cc motor. (Current models use a 373cc). The 398 motor is the same as in the new Triumphs just tuned for a few more horses. All built in India which is a huge market. Moto 3 engines are all effectively KTM motors. KTM come a long long way from the dingy Butch Hirsch shop on top of commissioner in jozi all those years ago. Incredible success story.

I am 6ft 3 in old money. So I do dwarf it but I don’t care. It’s a great lil bike and has good performance while keeping me mostly on the right side of mr Plod. Best handling bike I have ever ridden I reckon. and now other manufacturers are jumping into this market. Kawasaki launching a zx400rr, aprillia a 450 or something like that, triumphs new range. Exciting end of the market although us Europeans will just carry on buying the large GS range I suspect. These smaller bikes are seen as for the youth market. But they fun. And cheapish. .

Me on my ready to race Brad wannabe RC390. An incredible amount of fun is had on this wee bike.

At Barnstormers BMW in Alton to have my 800GT serviced and MOT’d. Amazing dealer. Coffee is good. Bikes are sexy AF. when I was a young man BMW was for old ballies, now that I am a ballie BMW build for young dudes.

used to hate DSTV in ZA, thought it was a rip off so cancelled it. However, I have come to realise DSTV is actually pretty good from a sports point of view. Here, to get the same sports coverage as DSTV I need sky sports (34) , BT sports ( 30) , prime (9) which comes to 73 quid. Or near on 1800 ront a month. but rugby on free channel 😂.
