patches Posted September 4, 2019 Share That's frkn awesome...!! Gets back on to trademe... Get a moped! Can be ridden on a car license. Can use bus lanes Loads of free parking in the CBD Way more affordable rego ($165pa vs $405pa for a bike up to 600cc) And you can look badass like one of the Quake City Rumblers!

Allrounder Posted September 5, 2019 Share If everything goes as planned, I will be selling the dakkie, and buying a 2008 versys. For what I do 99% of the time, the versys makes more sense. Hairy and Steven Knoetze (sk27) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patches Posted September 8, 2019 Share Which makes more sense? Yup, even pre-eBikes this has been an issue. Top end MTB's have been on par/pricier than top end enduro bikes for a while. Yes one could claim expensive materials, and RnD and all that nonsense on the MTB side I'd be willing to bet that more time, effort, and cost go into the manufacture of a KTM or Husky enduro bike than some 'premium' brand carbon MTB (where the frame is probably made in China anyway). But at the end of the day it comes down to who the target market is, and what they are willing to pay. There are way more boardroom execs out there willing to drop R130k on an Sworks Epic because their golf buddy took up MTBing and entered the Cape Epic and they want to be like him. Dirt bikes are seen as reckless and dangerous and appeal to fewer of the corporate types. RocknRolla, Hairy, BSG and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allrounder Posted September 13, 2019 Share Hi guys. Glad to report the Dakkie is sold. Dude collecting it tonight. And then tomorrow I am collecting the Versys. So does anyone know of decent spots that I can look at for the versus? Or where i can look. And since it does not have crash bars on, I was considering putting bullbar brackets on the forks (it is upside down forks) with the spots. Thoughts?

RocknRolla Posted September 13, 2019 Share I think extremelights.co.za have some motorcycle spots. Enjoy the new bike! Lexx and Allrounder 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
