Title: Fixed up
Post by: MotoZA on April 18, 2016, 03:45:36 AM

Thanks again to Pete for the swing-arm, finally got my NTX back from the agents two weeks ago, did over two thousand kms from the Lowveld (Mpumalanga) to Western Cape without issues. Great to be riding the NTX again, awesome bike.

Photo below was taken on my way home, had to stop to adjust the straps of my luggage, and this fellow came along...

While it may be hard to do, please, don't worry unduly and enjoy. Stelvio is a great bike if it's your thing. I'm more Griso..... :D

Glad you're back on the road and pleased that you're sticking to the Stelvio despite your experience. I think the Stelvio's a great bike too.

Thanks, Pete. I'm slowly getting my confidence in the bike back. Still a few cosmetic things to fix on her, but nothing major.

Race between the hare and the tortoise? The tortoise appears very focused.

That would probably be the NTX due to it's extreme confidence in it's speed.
