I think the exhaust looks OK, certainly not bad enough to replace with the one you're suggesting...... I don't see a benefit.

What does confuse me though is when manufacturers build bikes with single sided swing arms, then sling a 'zorst in front of it....... defeats the purpose and the aesthetics...... and we all know it's all about the aesthetics....... don't we?

Benefits are better noise (but not chav loud), weight loss and looks.

It's far smaller and sleeker than OEM. I think it's totally different.

Noted, duly ashamed and unreservedly apologetic........ I hope you can find it in your heart to forgive me.......

That said........ IF Trump posted on motorbike internet forums, he'd probably claim to be significantly faster than everyone.......

My sig is and always has been about my day job you nasty bastards.

And that's 7 miles a minute fast flown low enough to see the other humans I'm overtaking......

Therefore, significantly faster than you.....

Sadly, due to an admin fuck up by KTM UK, the bike was not able to be registered today so delivery is delayed until next week.

Bang goes my minor spannering session tomorrow.

Thanks Al x

It's OK. I could have got it delivered today but technically, if it's not registered, it's not insured so not worth the risk.

I have time. It's not like Il be riding it in the snow, salt and cold.....

Bloody Evotech tail tidy came with two parts that are suppose to fit into each other and don't by a long shot........ still managed a picture without a tail at all for the album.

Are you sure?  Mine was a bit awkward to put together but once I'd scratched my head for an hour it's really well made.

I'm afraid I am. It was the indicator stem which didn't fit the main body so not really anything to get confused by. Same has happened to another SDR rider on the FB group. Must be a dodgy batch of bits.

Looking at that photo, I'm not sure about the rim tape (not a fan as you know) or the orange bit at the back of the headlight. Needs a little orange as a nod to its heritage though!
