I received news this morning of an ex-colleague that died in a bike crash in the Cape somewhere today (not sure if in town or where).
Very unfortunate. Be careful.
What does a typical service cost? Heard it is about R4k (from a KTM dealer)? This might be the only thing keeping me from going Orange, high running costs :(
I'll try to find out if the premium will drop with a licence, but I think there are a few things that count against me still. Living in Pta-east (crime hub!), no locked garage etc.
Spoke about this bike with a mate yesterday, seems it is a viable candidate also. Great for touring to the west coast and all that? Or is it a bit of a stretch?
A valid point indeed. Even though the 950 might be quite a deal, I don't think I will be able to manage that premium over and above paying for the bike as well.
And definately won't get a big bike without a licence.
