    Brilliant, I've worked as a tech in a premium auto dealership and had some horrible experienced with customers not willing/unable to understand situations. The customer is not always right, if they were, they should carry out the repair/diagnosis themselves. As Uncle Ben said "With great power...

    Ok, new ad done, if you bored, please take a look constructive criticism will be appreciated, alternatively anyone with a 990 willing to trade? Bmw S1000 GS would be an amazing machine.

    I'm a true fan of the KTM, really loved my 300EXC. Any tips for getting around the height issue? Where would you gents put the mileage threshold for this type of machine, I'm the sort of guy who hates the idea of a bike with more than 30k km on it which obviously is different on these DP...

    Wow, ok so looks like the 990 is the crowd favorite. Hows this for a spanner in the works. I'm 162cm short and inner seam height is 73cm(I really got the tape up in there.) Making the 86cm seat height a stretch on level ground. I'll take a look and see if I can track one down to test ride. I...
