Need new tyres and oil change in Darwin for our Africa Twin
Hi there,
does anybody know where in Darwin I can get a new rear tyre from my Africa Twin? I would need an Anakee II 140 80R 17? Any Idea for a tyre dealer there? I would need an oil change too, icl. Filter - any good garage there around? Does anyone knows as well a good and afordable place to stay as well? After 35.000 km South East Asia Australia will be quite a change for us. Not only the temperature I guess but we are looking forward to explore this huuuuuuuge continent! We are crossing over to East Timor tomorrow morning and will clean the bike and everything very well! YES we know the reqirements and that they are very strict etc.... GRTS from the boarder to Timor Leste cheers Kerstin and Sascha

Guten Tag, Kerstin und Sascha ..
 I got a set of Conti Escapes from Precision Motorcycles in Darwin NT back in May last year (2011). I had heard mixed reports about this particular dealership /workshop beforehand, but I actually found them to be as good as gold. If you want to know what I paid, then let me know and I'll dig-out the invoice; I'm sure that it's still hanging around in my paperwork somewhere. All the best .. from sunny England!  KEITH [& ELLEN]

ölwechsel lieber selber machen. im shop zu teuer. öl selber auch teuer 60-90$ für 3-4 liter.
tyre gibts im bikehsop. es gibt einen honda dealer. und einen yamaha, suzuki, kawasaki etc dealer. beide haben tyre auf stock. liegen auch nicht weit etfernt von einander. da kannst du mal schauen.

Australian route
Long story- was infomred by A-wind on ADV that you guys have arived in Darwin. Tried to post on your blog Round the World by Bike | Round the World by Bike but with no succes so here goes:
I'm down the bottom end of WA- Esperance. Ride Africa Twin myself. If you guys need any assistance/support whilst in Aus for teh AT- give a shout here or on ADV (or send me a PM and I'll sned you my contact details)- not much support in Aus for these bikes through the normal channels. Also- if your route goes by here- I have a well-equipped workshop at home if you wanted to do any maintenance or repairs and theres plenty of room to stay here at our house if you wish to do so. Welcome to Aus and good luck Squily
