Zephyr Supporters Hall of Fame

You may wonder about this Hall of Fame on my motorcylce web page. Well, it was born out of a situation when I urgently needed some spareparts for the Zeph.

I asked a friend to go shopping for me and to bring the stuff over to Bali, where we were supposed to meet . Knowing about the hassle to run around in Singapore with a print out of sparepart numbers for a 10 year old Kawa, I promised him to that he will be on my Supporters Hall of Fame list, if he succeeds. (OK, I had thrown in a set of Metzeler ZE4 tyres, which I needed as well at that time).

Yes, he made it!

And he has created a new section on my web site, dedicated to all the people who make it possible to ride a unspecific and unusual motorcycle in Indonesia, for which you can't get any of the ormally available support.

Enjoy the following stories, which will give you an idea about problems you may face if you want to own and ride a bike in Indonesia

Thomas He managed to shop for a new chain and sprocket set and a new set of tyres when I desperately needed the spares to prepare the bike for a long Java tour. All done on his way to the airport, and he added the spares and tyres to his normal luggage, which was already consisiting of a Mandoline, a Guitar, a set of Drums and a Piano (I'm not sure about the piano)?. Was there some diving gear as well? Of course, there was a computer.
