If it's the KTM i'm well jealous, White ones the way forward if that's the case. I've only seen one in the flesh and I got a semi, what a bike. Only concern was that the early ones power delivery/fuelling was a bit bizarre from memory of reports, suppose the newer 1200? will be sorted...one lucky sod you really are.

Not KTM not spending that sort of cash and if i did it would be an 848 or 1098. I thought the finish of the KTM I saw was shit very Tonka toy.

To quote Roy Walker "It's good but it's not right."

Had a look over the bike today seems very tidy and had a recent fork job done on it by Ktech apparently some muppet over tightened the spindle clamps snapping them and they needed replacing other than that the bike is clean although I saw signs that it had fallen over on the RH side but nothing serious could just have been marked putting the bike in the garage TBH tiny mark on F brake lever and RH air duct was new, foot pegs unmarked but not new, no scrapes otherwise it had been ridden in the wet maybe once or twice. So fill me in on the on board computer.
We did check the saved top speed 188 it said.
All I'm waiting on now is a ride and wether we can sort a deal.
No?

Thanks people I'm just twiddling my thumbs till next week now.
Immy it can't be any louder than my ZX6 109db that's silly loud and annoying even with earplugs after a while. With the insert in it was still 102db, riding through villages with the baffle out(or in) was a noisy affair a 600 with shortened gearing doing 30-40mph revs a touch.

Very nice, Chappers. It would be good if you popped by the station sometime when you're out and about on it. I'd love to see it (and listen to that mighty V2 thru Akras) in the flesh, so to speak.

humm-well I was told that my yoshi system has arrived and will get a phone call to pop down next week some time and see it fitted on the new bike and then fired up for the first time- they will do a db check as well out of curiosity so we can decide whoses the most anitsocial git

I never picked up on this, sorry, or I would have scanned/emailed you some of the handbook for reference. If you still want...?
Well done. You'll be needing a Biaggi replica lid and perhaps a 'Team Perrier water' graphics kit for it now! lol
