it's a really noisy snarling and angry beast, complete head turner in town today............:oonyack
 
Paul, It looks an exquisite machine... but have you viewed your refection in a shop window, astride set motorised work of art?

I'm trying to be delicate here, but might not the proportions of the bike vs, yourself be somewhat akin to a gorrilla on a mini-moto?

:hide

If you hadn't posted pictures of me flaked-out at Llany I wouldn't have said a word.


Enjoy it anyway....

My 1st thought is why did the original owner sell it?

Nice looking bike though. :cool:

he bought a brand new R1 and completely tricked it out (fancy clutch, exhaust, engine mapping and the like - he's not a poor man), coincidentally he was in the shop today when I bought the bike and regretted trading it in, seen as he's just been stopped on the R1 for a 'silly speed'.....:blast .....:D

it's a fair cop, but you've seen a gorilla playing drums....have you seen one pulling a wheelie.....:D
 
So which bike shop posts signs telling folks not to sit on the bikes - is that Tam Drysdale's place...?
 
I've obvioulsy missed The Courier headlines when I was on my hols:

Fat Laddie From Dalkeith Wins Lottery :D

Ahh so it's Russ Manson who's taken to not letting people sit on his bikes, is it....?

When did he start selling KTMs ?

he must have got a couple in as trade ins, certainly the one I bought from Carrick was traded in against an R1

As for the other KTM you see in the pic, apparently some guy from Bonnyrigg was due to buy and was out on a test ride, came back sheepish, 'arrested' for careless driving and speeding....I think he 'hoiked' the front up in a 30....:comfort
 
Nice bike, there :thumb2

690cc, eh? - now there's an engine with its work cut out :augie


Is it really a 160 rear tyre? :nenau
