I like it. All their gear looks good. Would love to get a water tank and an auxillary fuel tank, but freight may be cost prohibitive.

You are actually far better off using your credit card to buy overseas. Normally no charges. Have only been charged $3.80 once for a currency conversion.

The beauty of ordering from o/seas is that the postal costs are the same. $50 to anywhere in Australia from South Africa is cheaper than domestic postage.

Steve
The water stayed cool after 3 hours highway driving.
Still cool after 4 hours low range (although there were 15 or so river crossings, followed by steep climbing, and another 3 hours highway.

So no effect from the exhaust.
