Frohan, ek neem aan die enigste rede hoekom jy nou 'n KTM ry, is omdat hulle jou DR afgevat het, ne?
« Reply #104 on: October 14, 2008, 02:51:07 pm »
Ek het na my "Afrika" DR 2 ander DR's gehad, 'n nuwe 650 en toe 'n 800 enkel silinder, maar die nuwe DR se tenke is te klein vir die langpad.
Daai blou DR het 50 000km op die klock gehad toe ek hom moes "afgee" en al wat fout gegaan het was papwiele en die clutch kabel wat gebreuk het, verder niks nie. Ek sou maklik weer kon terug ry met daai bike. Ek moet sÃª dat die KTM makliker in die sand ry en die shocks van die KTM kan al die slegte Afrika paaie se knocks vat...........vlg keer is dit met die KTM!!!!!!!!

Frohan..........hierdie is die eerste keer dat ek post op hierdie thread maar ek volg dit vanaf dag 1.
Jy het die storie al so liggies aangeroer, maar ek het nooit geweet dit was so 'n intensiewe ervaring nie.
Dankie vir jou moeite om dit te tik en die hele storie vir ons te dokumenteer.

Not sure what I can say that hasn't already been said, but maximum respect for keeping it together. I can't begin to imagine how kak it must have been locked-up and in those conditions and not knowing what was going to happen next.
And thanks again for the taking the time to write it up.

Ek het dit begin lees voor my vakansie en nou klaar gemaak na die vakansie. Dankie tog ek kon alles lees en hoef nie te gewag het vir die episodes nie
Wat 'n avontuur! Dis die swaar dinge op 'n trip wat jy na die tyd onthou.

Frohan dankie vir die moeite om die storie te skryf. Ek het so stukke gehoor hier op die Bosch, maar nou weet ek weer.
Ek dink nie ek sou alles so goed kon hanteer as wat jy dit hanteer het nie.
Ek dink en gaan nou maar eers daai "Adventure" op die kant van my KTM toemaak, want net manne soos jy mag dit dra.
