Yeah, had it welded but again broke, going to re-enforce with a plate next time.

Hello, Nothing mounted on the screen or any Nav bars etc. Stock Standard. The bracket broke mid center and not on the actual welding. Had it welded but broke again. Thinking of getting a plate added for more strength.

Hello gents I have been experiencing breakage of the front bracket that is welded onto the headset tube (depicted in the photo with the yellow line). I had it welded but again on a long trip (offroad) the vibrations on the stutter bumps broke it again. Has anyone else experienced this...

Hello I just purchased a second hand ECU and immobilizer for my 2011 S10. Is there anything one needs to do to it (reset) as the bike starts but engine cuts about 40 seconds later. Anyone have some info what to do when installing a second hand ECU? THANKS IN ADVANCE

Hello. The unthinkable happened to me while touring in Botswana (Africa) a few weeks ago. I burned my ONLY key that I got with the bike! How did I do that I hear you all ask, well simple I took my key out the ignition ( I do not do this every when at camp for the night) and put the key into...

Out n about exploring the Karoo (Western Cape of Southern Africa)

Do you perhaps have a contact number of Gielie please ?

I have been having recent issues with my rear brake (like many in the forum have experienced). Rear brakes have been bled and the ABS pump cycled (multiple x10 times) only to be good for a day or two then it goes right back to being spongy and soft having to pump the rear brake to get pressure...

My rear brakes seem to have the same issue suddenly like all the descriptions in previous posts. My mechanic has replaced the rear slave valve, changed and bled the systems multiple times done the ABS pump cycle only to have rear brakes good for a day or two before going all soft. Last resort...

T Thanks! Really appreciate it. I just could not find the codes or i was looking under the incorrect manual. Thanks again!

I experienced small cracking on the rear, reported the tyre to the importer here in South Africa who in return sent a questionnaire request km's ridden on tyre and pressure in tyres. A few days later they sent me a replacement tyre free of charge. Very awesome tyre for touring and longevity...

Fully loaded with all gear for 6 month Africa tour from Cape Town to Kenya (2021) Only thing missing is the pillion that was taking the photo. We stopped on a truck weigh bridge before leaving South Africa and weighed in at 530Kg (Bike, Gear, Pillion and pilot).

Hello I tried checking on-line for the following fault codes to no luck (maybe i just never checked in the right places). The following codes we on when i checked the diagnostics: 11, 12, 22, 25 and 74. Does anyone know if they engine fault codes or ABS fault codes as i believe they are...

Hello My 2011 S10 rear brake suddenly went all soft and spongy. Thinking it was low on DOT4 fluid i checked the reservoir and it was full. Bled the rear brake to clear lines of any air bubbles (which there was), replaced and flushed out the lines with fresh brake fluid. The brakes worked well...

Happy new year! I recently washed my bike with a normal hose pipe (routine maintenance) and a small fleck of water got into the spark plug wells, enough to cause the bike to stutter. The usual suspect was spark plug well on the left. Strangely the stuttering starts happening about 2 days...
