Greetings from Cape Town, South Africa

Actually it is not Cape Town, it is a small village about 80Km's north of Cape Town called Riebeek Kasteel, I believe in the whole of Cape Town there are only 2 GRiSO's, I own a 2013 8v SE, only modifications has been a Stucchi fender eliminator and ridding the lollipop indicators, replaced with cheaper chines or taiwanese or korean brand smaller indicators

Welcome to the Ghetto. So you like to be different.

Have to ask (as I failed geography), how far are you from Johannesburg? Home of BST.

Edited:
Just googled it. Oops! Its a long long way away.

I am about 1600Km from Johannesburg, I cannot buy directly from BST, I have to work through one of the local dealers, the pricing is about same if I could buy direct or from the dealer, the only time we can buy directly from BST is if we commision them to make stuff, or when BST have their annual warehouse sale.

Welcome, Jesters. I had the fortune/misfortune of having a bad crash in the Canadian Yukon last summer and by happenstance, the hospital where I received my most excellent care happened to be staffed by two South African MDs. Very capable blokes, I must say, and both maintained quite a sense of humor in spite of my dire circumstances and since I ended up staying awhile, I got to know one of them well enough that he'd come in even on his off-days to share (on his smarty phone, of course), pictures and videos of the day's fishing adventures - King Salmon, Yukon style!. I'd rather have been anywhere else at the time, but your countrymen made the stay quite tolerable, all things considered.

Cheers.

Welcome to the Ghetto. Nice bike.

May I ask where you sourced your Stucchi Fender Eliminator?

Montanarolo Posts : 12 Join date : 2015-04-27 Age : 56

Thanks. Looks like they're out of stock. I hope they're going to continue making these.

Welcome JestersInc.
We are getting more and more corners of the world on this board.
Do you happen to be a fan of the rock band Marillion?

Was the sky Bible Black in Lyon? Wink

So JestersInc, what do you listen too??
I am an unrepentant metalhead with some of the usual prog-rock leanings.

Welcome, were you at Killarney race circuit in February?
Saw a GRiSO there but just got a fleeting glance.
