The MT10 looks pretty good. The dude who rides the AT probably gets all the birds :ROFLMAO:

Yes! Get the beautiful Desert X that no one thinks looks fucken awful! :ROFLMAO:

...only because you said we could, even if I have no place to diss on motorbikes. Imagine buying a GS right when the Ducati Desert X is released :ROFLMAO:

For interest sake, how thirsty is your Cruiser compared to what @Confucius said above about the Audi? On the Patrol I get 500 -600 depending on the amount of freeway driving with a 120l tank. 450 if I don't watch my foot.

Cries in 4.8 GRX Patrol :cry:

Aha, something like AUDIO. I'll give it a try tomorrow.

If you have to re-use a vowel for the words you want to try that you know doesn't fit then you know the word you want to try won't be correct. I'm aiming to guess the word in the least amount of tries possible.

Third day in a row that I got 0 hits on the first guess. First time to get 0 hits twice in a row :( Wordle 221 6/6 ⬜⬜⬜⬜⬜ ⬜⬜⬜⬜⬜ 🟨🟨⬜⬜⬜ 🟨🟨🟨🟨⬜ ⬜🟩🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

I don't know about you guys, but I like my new peepee.

+1 votes for the Honda Jazz. Spacious little cars and easy on the pocket.

Good news everybody! I got my license this Friday. I didn't think it would be so nerve wrecking to do a license again, but in the end the classes paid off. I suspect the test officials kinda know that you're from a driving school and then half the time don't even look at what you're doing. It...

Seeing the GSX-S1000 on the cover makes me think it is going to be one of those bikes where you either hate the looks or completely love the looks. It's weird to even type this, but I think it looks better than the Super Duke (yeah I know it's not in the same class, but still) !

I have an update, albeit a small one. I've got an appointment for my license test on the 16th of July. I'm already nervous.

@UrBaN Pics are ALWAYS appreciated. Cleaning my pants because of it, maybe not so much....

I'm more tempted than I should be. I see this is somewhere in Gauteng or a place where Gauteng people go to vacation. Which shop is this at?

@PandaAttack1 , did you eventually decide on what to get?

Holey shit guys! When did 700+ cc bikes start to cost the same a frikkin cars!? I was looking at the not top of the line KTMs and even the 890 is already above 200K. Back in the early 2000's if you bought one of the top of the line bikes they almost got to 200K and that was super expensive at...

Absolutely spot on. I would hate for anyone to get a motorcycle and not realize the heightened danger factor that comes with that. The image in my head of a taxi literally shitting out an entire axle made me chuckle :ROFLMAO:

While I don't want to downplay the dangers of riding a motorcycle, we have to think about this in context. That context being that everything is dangerous if you are reckless. Is riding a motorcycle more dangerous that driving a car? Absolutely yes. Is driving a car more dangerous that flying...

Turbo buuuusa!!!

From the wise words of YammieNoob : "The turbo-busa is a perfect beginners bike!"

My vote also goes to the new Husqvarnas, but the svartpilen 401 specifically. Good looking bike, apparently the 2020 model has a real smooth power delivery, so it's easy to learn on. It has ABS and also a quickshifter out of the box AND you can take it for a bit of offroading (like gravel, not...

Some good points indeed. I might just have to let the school know to delay my lessons a bit until I have my own ride and had some time in the saddle. The two bikes I'm going to start investigating is the Svartpilen 401 and the duke 390. Basically the same bike that looks different with very few...

Yo! Update after my assessment lesson on Saturday. It seems like it went well! The dude said that I shouldn't have an issue with passing the test. That's good news for me, but I don't feel 100% comfortable with the bike they are using yet. It's a little Suzuki 150cc thing but I need more...

My first assesment lesson is on Saturday morning at 6. I got the helmet and gloves for now. The rest wil come before I buy a bike or even use another bike on the normal roads. The lesson luckily is only in a parking lot type setup.

Step one is almost done. Im sitting in Akasia waiting for the learners license issue system to stop being "offline"

Thanks for the feedback my dudes. I'll definitely look at the full gear then from the get go. And yes, I've fallen on tar before, albeit with a skateboard and yes, after 15 years I still have the scar on my palm :ROFLMAO:

Allright, so it looks like stuff's moving now. I got into contact with a driving school that was highly rated and pretty close to where I live. They are in the process of finding a slot for me and also sent through the learning material for the test. Blasted through that yesterday evening and...

I just found a couple of schools really close to myself. Lets see how quick they get back to me.

I guess I'll have to start getting friendly with a driving school then. Maybe tell them that I'll use them for the actual license if they get me slots. Anyone know of some decent motorcycle driving schools that can do this in PTA?

Guys, how the dickens do you register for a learners license? There's no slots available on eNatis. Do you have to go through some different channel or what?

I guess if you like adventures, just make a trip of it every time you have to get it to that dealership, hah.

So happy you posted this! I was also looking at the Africa Twin, mainly for the reliability and amount of service centers. The T700 looks like it could also be awesome, especially if you're going to do more offroad than on. If you're going for an adventure bike, does the power really make that...

So this weekend I had some time to think and discuss what I want from a bike and where I would like to go with it. The most obvious type would then be an ADV because you get to go where ever the hell you please. It might not be great for a track day, but it's a good way to see how small or large...

At this point it's so up to date that I'm surprised my wife hasn't cut the brake lines on my car yet.

Do dealers actually let people do this? I've heard a couple of times that they stopped letting people take bikes for test rides like this. It would be amazing to be able to test it for a full day though. I assume it's only if they have demo models though.

Oh, and it's less than half the price of a SDR.

I'm actually glad this thread died down for a while and then suddenly exploded with posts! So since we last spoke I've actually ..how can I say it... exhausted the itch by watching too many videos and reading too many reviews that I started growing tired of seeing a picture or read about the...

I've been thinking of the "safer" ADV bikes, but then again, in my mind, it's like choosing to get a station wagon instead of a GTR because it's a smarter choice. Sure there are pretty good looking station wagons with lots of power and bigger engines, but it's not the same as a GTR. I think I'm...

Another thing that didn't help at all was when I looked at this forum and saw you guys going on rides together. How dare you make me feel like an outsider for not having a motorcycle!
