Looks like a well sorted bike-nothing left to do but ride it then?

Is this for your TAT trip in a few months?

Hi Gaz,

Good catch - I was on holiday and due to see that on the 19th Seemed ideal for a forthcoming jaunt around South America.

I'm gutted that it is as good as it seemed. Enjoy!

 

[SkyGod]

I`m selling the 690 that it has replaced if you are interested mate?????

 

[(RIP) Tunneruk]

I posted a link up to that bike a couple of months ago .... some interesting replies

I wouldnt call the replies interesting, I would call them typical of this site.

I certainly won`t be losing sleep about them.

Yes it has been ridden in a couple of rallies and I intend to ride it in a couple more.

Having met the seller and spent a good couple of hours with him you realise he is a fanatic about maintenance and although he uses his bikes as intended he certainly knows how to look after them.

Give me a bike thats been ridden as intended and proved to be capable of being pushed hard rather than a show piece pampered garage borne thing any day

A day on the lanes tmrw in the IOM and I should know a bit more.

Enjoy, i'm sure you'll have a great time and the right man for the job

Indeed, any pampered machine deserves to be left alone in my book, Id buy a well used and well maintained bike over a hangar queen any day of the week.

Having said that my GSA is always totally immaculate and spends many a happy hour being cleaned by myself

Have a good time Gary, give the KTM some big licks over there

 

[Urban Rider]

THAT is one great looking bike!!!!

Good health to ya Gary and enjoy riding her

 

[Possu]

Is this the same 690 you took to Bakerman's Salisbury Plain ride on 30th December, look a bit different.

I have pics of the bike you rode that day but it's a bit hard to compare it for some reason.

 

[SkyGod]

Different Bike

...all I said was check it out thoroughly and knowing Gazz he would anyway and to be fair, the guy said he was always in the garage prepping it

 

[Desert Rat]

I wish it was ORANGE

How about a white one

 

[Big Nick]

Why do they sticker them up like a 5 year olds BMX though
