Starvin' Marvin Posted March 2, 2019 Posted March 2, 2019 She sounds really nice, you should hang on to her She's quite the keeper.
Starvin' Marvin Posted March 2, 2019 Posted March 2, 2019 So does anyone have any motorcycling mates in Queenstown who would be willing to go and check out a bike for me......Hi I will be in Queenstown 8th March. Happy to help
Joe De Beer Posted March 2, 2019 Posted March 2, 2019 Thanks, so quicker than the BMW 310's then!When I bought the 390 in 2015 it had much better Kw/kg than any of the other bikes in price range. So the extra power plus the ABS made it an easy choice for a commuter and a training bike for wife BenReaper, Lexx and Hairy 3
Allrounder Posted March 4, 2019 Posted March 4, 2019 Saw a KTM 990 with 2 ackro pipes on yesterday. That thing sounds mean!!! Chatted to the guy, he has a 650 GS and the 990, and he says you can see the difference in how the cars react around you, with the OEM GS pipes and the Monster KTM. dirtypot, Steven Knoetze (sk27), Hairy and 1 other 4

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..............

It's a bit of a dick-move but then they shouldn't be on their phones! Steven Knoetze (sk27) and Grebel 2

Steven Knoetze (sk27) Posted March 4, 2019 Posted March 4, 2019 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
sawystertrance Posted March 4, 2019 Posted March 4, 2019 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
Hairy Posted March 4, 2019 Posted March 4, 2019 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 Posted March 4, 2019 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.

But it's a Honda so reliability should not be an issue. 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.

Yep half a Honda Jazz engine... Steven Knoetze (sk27) and Hairy 2
