Hi there. I joined LOCSA a while ago but never got around to the introduction. I live in Fish Hoek Cape Town and own a white 1997 1.7 Lada running on 15 inch wheels which I am lead to believe is a bit odd. My other vehicles are a 1996 300TDI Defender and a Yamaha FJ1200

Hi Karl
Welcome to the forum and I hope you will add many contributions to the forum.
It seems that the Cape Town section is also growing now.

Hi Karl Welcome to the forum - I really miss that part of Cape Town. Many owners switched to 15" rims - not odd at all. You should be just fine but apparently some makes give problems. I don't have a clue as to which ones If you don't have any front wheel bearing/steering box issues - you're fine Regards Marius

Hi Karl Welcome to the forum. You have a much bigger choice of tyres with the 15" rims. Looking forward to hearing from you Regards Ronnie

Hi Karl Welcome on board - nice to have another Biker here. Our gang here at the forum are all good people, just like us Biker okes..... ....everybody here is keen to help, so please feel free to send pics of the Lada, or to ask any questions. And oh - if possible, please send a pic of the Yamaha too......... We do have something else in common too - I use FJ 1200 paper oil filters on my Kawasaki as well - a good tip by a professional motorcycle mechanic. The quality of the Yamaha oil filters are simply better.......... Regards Danie
