Steven Knoetze (sk27) Posted March 4, 2019 Share ha-ha - I do that too. It's a bit of a dick-move but then they shouldn't be on their phones! I agree, but more of dick move when they T-bone a biker one day for using their phone while driving......If I could I would grab the phone and drop it 500m up the road while doing 80km/h but that's somehow illegal........... sawystertrance 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sawystertrance Posted March 4, 2019 Share https://www.bikehub.co.za/classifieds/351139-honda-nc-700-x-2011/No Service history? Warning.....but perhaps find out why. Also, 2011 model is pretty old. But it's a Honda so reliability should not be an issue. Hairy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hairy Posted March 4, 2019 Share exactly ... if you keep to 60km per hour instead, it could certainly be deemed legal I agree, but more of dick move when they T-bone a biker one day for using their phone while driving......If I could I would grab the phone and drop it 500m up the road while doing 80km/h but that's somehow illegal...........

Hairy Posted March 4, 2019 Share not interested in that bike, just thought it funny that we first see e-bikes being advertised, and now real motor bikes No Service history? Warning.....but perhaps find out why. Also, 2011 model is pretty old. But it's a Honda so reliability should not be an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read that the NC700 is basically a civic VTEC engine with 2 cylinders whacked off.The Civic VTEC is probably thee most reliable engine in the world.If those NC's didn't look so ugly Honda would be on to a winner I think.

Grebel Posted March 4, 2019 Share Loud pipes save lives, fact!!! My TRX, it doesn't matter where I am coming from, you hear me!!!! Couple of extra revs while filtering gets people off their phones very quickly. I even slow down, right by their window, and rev a bit more if I see they are trying to have a conversation on said phone..............Glad I'm not the only one....

Andymann Posted March 5, 2019 Share My Nephew rides MX in Cape Town and he is graduating from a KX85 to a YZ125. I found him an ex-team bike here in Pretoria and I collected it last night. Couldn't resist taking it for a little blast up the road. And scared myself shitless. I don't know what happened between when I was a kid blasting my KDX200 flat out down a dirt road in the dark in 1988 and going up a tar road last night, but I got into third, turned it around and putted back to the garage and parked it. That thing is fearsome. Wannabe and Steven Knoetze (sk27) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirtypot Posted March 5, 2019 Share I used to have a YZ125. That bike brought me so much joy and happiness along with plenty of long lasting physical pain Still one of my all time favourite bikes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the nerd Posted March 5, 2019 Share So the Versys went in for some service items that the dealership were covering and they gave me a loaner for the day... So I can now give a not so comprehensive review on the SYM300 scooter... Hairy, dirtypot and Steven Knoetze (sk27) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hairy Posted March 5, 2019 Share A.G.E ...... when you were younger you were more fearless ? My Nephew rides MX in Cape Town and he is graduating from a KX85 to a YZ125.
