Hi @dooby , you seem to be the guy who knows everyone in this region

We are currently in Sarajevo in the middle of our Madrid-Tokyo adventure ride and in need of one new rear tire...also looking for carburator membranes (Mikuni BS 34) and some small spring for an electric starter, but these are not as critical as the tire -- threads are starting to be visible now ^^



Thanks for any tips or helpful recommendations.

If you need carb membranes I can get them here in Croatia and ship them to Sarajevo in case you can’t find them locally.

Good luck enjoy my home town

Was on that same spot a few years ago....

Thank you so much for this info @dooby , and please excuse me for never getting back to you... I'm becoming more and more offline as the trip progresses...

We ended up finding a place just outside the capital thanks to another biker who saw us and made some phone calls, people there --as in all of the Balkans-- were extremely nice and helpful, just like you with your amazing offer of sending us the carb membranes from Hrvatska .

In case it's useful for someone else, Laco Moto, which is run by Laco, who in addition to his well stocked Enduro shop, has a very nice garage and --before Covid of course-- used to rent enduro bikes to go up the incredible mountains surrounding Sarajevo.

Glad you got sorted in the end!
Seeing the tire canvas so exposed is always a sign of a proper adventure in the process .
