There is none. Me and my kilt stayed in the shadows

I'm sure Deano the official photographer may have the odd one

So,Johnny

Now that you've given the Katoom a proper work out (on road),are you still pleased with it ?

That was one of my concerns that I would regret sellin the 12adv
No way Jose still love the Katoom

GS is a better autobhan mile eater but even so the Katoom is the one to have.
A weave comes in at 105 mph but I have just read it's down to the pirelli scorp tyre on the front.
Looking to get the 45ltr tanks though

That's good to hear.


Did you have a top box fitted ?


My KTM 950S Adv used to be ok all the way to flat out indicating about 130 with the KTM H & B panniers fitted,but a mate who had a top box had a weave at about 110.


I had Scorps on my Adv and loved them-so much so that I've got them on my SE and that was fine with no weave whatsoever when I took it to France last month.Didn't go above 115 ish though.

Different Bike I know but my 990SM has a top box and it really weaves at 110 with the box on ,and not at all with it off
