  1. Which shops are your favorites for helmets, jackets gloves etc?
  2. A whole 37000.
  3. So I was over struggling, and went to trusted old gumtree. Found a 2007 f650gs with 37000 km on the clock. So I took it. Not original BMW handle bars and the one panel was resprayed. Only problem with it is the dails start a bit low. They work correctly, just starts at the wrong place. Took it on a 100 km run yesterday, what a blast. Exactly what I wanted and expected.
  4. the worst thing happened today. Went to the shop with the moto mia. When I got home I heard something dripping.... Petrol dripping from the tank. It somehow cracked /rusted/ or rubbed through. I am so angry at this stage. What are your takes on the BMW f650gs?
  5. Die anc weet, solank hulle die rasse haat aan die gang kan hou, so lank sal hulle in beheer kan wees. As jy gaan kyk na die basiese bewegings (oppad na kommunisme) van n komunistiese land, en jy gaan vergelyk dit met wat by ons aangaan sal jy van jou stoel afval.
  6. Hoekom??????
  7. ai hierdie laat my bloed kook. http://maroelamedia.co.za/nuus/sa-nuus/werkers-val-wes-kaapse-boer-wreed-aan/
  8. Dit is deel van die probleem.... ek weet net hy is hier, maar weet nie wat sy naam is nie. Hy is een van die lesers van naaf land. Twyfel of hy iets sal skryf.
  9. Kry vir jou, jou bliks$1m
  10. Ek stem. my vrou is nie hier nie, maar my skoonpa is.
  11. Think I should reconsider my take on MTBing...
  12. hehe I was just thinking about what you said while you where posting. I have some experience with macro and game furniture. Scary stuff. I think I will just change the oil and filter first. other jobs will go to the shop.
  13. I know what cover you are talking about. that is also oozing oil on warm days. it is on the gear shifters side. The monza does not have a kick starter for some reason......
  14. was thinking the same thing. wonder why the one boat blocked the entrance.
  15. The new tomb rider is in my backpack! exams are over in 3 weeks, and then that will be my weekend!!
  16. I have never attempted something like taking the engine apart. Who knows, perhaps I am not to useless once I do it...
  17. But with all your advice, it might seem that I know what I am talking about and not be taken for a ride!!
  18. Thanks Andy! Ill change the oil and see how it works. I know how to replace pedals and filters, but for the rest, ill have to take her in.
  19. oooooo........ oops... Insert face palm emoji....... Thanks for this!! It might be the problem with the clutch! Weekend schedule updated!!
  20. mine is on 29500 km. There is a guy in brackenfell who used to own the gomoto shop, went out of business, because of the franchise agreement. but he still works on the cheap and nasties. Perhaps you can give him a call? I also changed the calipers to go with the new brake pads.
  21. 20w40 multi grade, not synthetic. Those twisters have a very good reputation!!
  22. You do not see the smoke yet, but the smell is there.
  23. I do have a car in the garage, so its not my only transport. and luckily just transport to and from work. I do not do any weekend trips or drives, due to not trusting the thing. But they do keep on going for ever!! Will have to look into a fork service as well... Thanks for all the advice andy!
  24. Thanks andy, Its using about a liter a month. And I am doing a total of 44 km a day, 5 days a week. What is very interesting, the motomia is sold under the loncin brand in Australia.... Gaskets will have to custom made. I know of a place that I can try the disks! retired engineer, who kept some of his machines in his garage as a hobby!!
