  1. who was looking for a ktm 640? https://www.gumtree.co.za/a-motorcycles-scooters/paarl/2006-ktm-adventure/1001931784090910419153309
  2. well done. I grew up on a karoo farm so rode my first bike at the age of 12. but nothing of this looking everywhere except on the road thing.
  3. According to the instructor, for thesale riding that I will be doing most, I should look for a nc750, rather than a gs....
  4. Go for at least one lessonof, even if you can ride. Also if you can use thw driving schools bike. It givesis some peace of mind to the guyargus doing the test with you. Take your time, you do not get penalized. You will use your cycling experience, especially with the emergency stop and swerve. And the left turn as well. Test took me about 10 mins and paperwprk after that 45min.
  5. I made it. Licenced at the age off 31. (motorbike of course)
  6. very insightful topic. I heard one guy say, you can buy the NC, but you will always wonder if you should not have waited and bought a GS. For me and my riding, home to work on tar in traffic. about 20 km one way. and then the odd breakfast run with the wife. together we hit the scale at round 135kg. And then once a month I need to go over the mountain about 90 km one way. I would like to do 120 when the traffic is travelling at those speeds, and comfort is a big must. Thats how i got to the point of NC or GS. but then again the versys is also very nice!!
  7. Will do!
  8. Going for my bike license tomorrow!! If I pass the motomia will go, and the hunt for a gs/nc will start.
  9. Thanks again for everyone involved and Az and the guys from think bike.
  10. that looks like fun to ride! Well done for the dude!!
  11. just read a few online reviews, seems I will have to spend that money. as you say, small price for safety.
  12. Yes had those tiny lightweigt stuff. not working. Think Ill have to punish the credit card and get a decent back light. for the same reasons as Andreas.
  13. where did you buy it?
  14. Will have a look thanks. Also found the bontrager daytime light, but 900 bit steep at this stage.
  15. Hi guys I am seriously looking for a very good rear light. I have tried a couple before, but they seem pretty useless during the day. Do you know which ones work well? Or what should I look at when buying one?
  16. I had to google this. Thanks man
  17. Working till 5. and then expo.
  18. so long till beer oclock
  19. Disturbingly cool
