Good place for a Sunday morning brekkie, travelling from the east rand?

Take back roads out to Val Hotel . Between Greylingstad and Standerton

I know I don't _need_... but it's easier.

Centre stand is very lekker to have, but I tend to agree with Sauron ... factory option or I would be a bit nervous.
Having said that , a mate of mine who I do offroad tours with has fitted the SW Motech centre stand to his KLR and and has had no problems ... and we have ridden some pretty rough stuff

That's way too much money over a paddock stand.

Or even a full bench stand.

It's often not the reliability that is the concern but rather that it gets in the way.

I scrape even my OEM centrestand through corners.

And I often step on it with my left foot while riding.

Hmmmm... never had that issue with my S10... footpegs 1ce or 2ce, but never centre stand

LOL.

A good breakfast run is one tank of fuel there and back.

 

[McSack]

Kuk man ...still on the east rhondt that izz .

P!ssing myself at your response

...but if you don't really want to ride fanie, why don't you just head down to the wimpy at east-rhondt mall

 

[faniebraai]

o hell, and you know the NC is light on fuel right? Durban here I come!

the east rand ends at springs, anything beyond that is the far east

He he. I suspect on a burner breakfast run it should dwindle.

It has a smallish tank though doesn't?

But to be honest a 100km there and a 100km back is a nice ride.

144km is a bit much if it's just breakfast, but make a day trip of it and it can be lekker.

 

[McSack]

Ja faark... and you've gotta have a special visa if you are not from Springs

yeh, tank is only 14.1km... commuting gets 4.1/100 but cruising on the high way at not burner speeds should be even less.
I'm still struggling to get the wife on the back though, she be schit scared

So from Kempton I should probably aim towards something in Pretoria I think....

A good run is Clarens for breakfast. 200 kays won't even burn the granny carbon out of that motor

You could always ride to Que Sera which is just the other side of Bapsfontein if you don't mind a bit of a biker hangout

 

[markbdaniels]
