I was just curious, how much protection does one of the Beanie helmets you see the cruiser crowd wearing really offer? A lot of them barely cover much of the head, and definitely not much frontal protection. It seems a Turbin isnt much far off.

In my opinion, this time of year is good to buy a bike, but so can spring be, if you start looking early. You may have more choice of bikes in the spring when more bikes are readily put up for sale. Especially when the weather warms up! I sold a bike last spring, had it listed for a couple...

Hi Hedo, just a side note here, I've been reading your posts for several years here, and you often make very valid and informative posts. To have help your posts be more readable can you check your spell check possibly? You seem to always have "You're" and "Your" mixed up. Hate being the...

It beats going to the boonies to watch it.. especially this time of year. And more chance people will come out to it when its central.

Photos seem to be missing, will add them again later. Still have jacket available, perfect for this time of year.

I want to k ow the back story on that one!

Just maybe some people have many more hobbies and activities and finding time to ride is a challenge. Especially for those that do not commute by motorcycle. I sold my bike this spring because I could not justify only riding 2,000km a year and paying $$$ for insurance. "I did not have time to...

that's correct! I won a pair last year. :)

Wouldn't that be considered a concealed weapon?

and rider change.. almost every KTM I see has some fancy graphics decal kit applied.

ha, is that the blue piece of front cowl? I saw that last Saturday. Made a change from the usual KTM parts

Thats what we used to have downunder in NZ. It maybe changed to yearly now, rather than 6 monthly. It was called a "WOF" - Warrany of Fitness . It declared the vehicle was safe and fit for the roads. Kept a lot of the junk off the roads.

Its not a hard job to do. Maybe 1hrs labour if you take to a shop? but yeah, I've done a couple bikes and its pretty straight forward. tons of YouTube videos to help you out : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cmbDF9gjMwE

Nice! Good use of a Banana too. :) You'll find out here most available riding areas will be Forest Trails. For a noob like me I'm enjoying them and some challenges I am finding in there. Some of the events like the Rock Hound Ralley and Cordury Enduro will be closer to Hard Enduro.

Are you still on the OEM battery?

ha.. wow. Its been over a decade now..

A few years ago, many stolen sport bikes apparently were shipped out to "the Islands" via Quebec. I remember a member here spotting his stolen bike while on holiday down there.

Howzit? ;) I've been watching some of the international hard enduro, never knew how popular it is in SA! Watched Wade Young win the Romaniacs the other week. Nice. There's some events out here that would be up your Alley - The Corduroy Enduro for sure. I'm a noob at all this, so others here...
