Sjoe - frightening. it’s just as well you decided to leave when you did. That arm was looking toxic. Happy to hear you’re through it though. No we’re not doing Barrydale, it’s WCOC prize giving this Saturday. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Recluse is not necessary at all. Just make sure you get your bike prepped properly for 3 days of rough riding. Things like Mouses; new chain and sprockets; new tyres ; make sure your wheel bearings and fork seals are good for the job; take the usual spares with you. Do some decent technical...

Hey Ross, how’s your arm doing? Hopefully it’s all sorted by now. Hope to see you there again next year. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That’s a bargain for this bike Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hey Eric, where are you from in Switzerland? We lived in your beautiful country, in Montreux during 2012 and 13. I'm very close to Durbanville, so let me know if I can help with something. Enjoy the ski season, you'll miss it once you're living here, but the riding is simply epic. Sent from my...

I Sold my 2013 model in July this year on 72000km's to a colleague and bought the new 1290 R. All I ever did to it was regular services and had no trouble at all with it. It's still going strong on 75000km's now. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Ja, "sensitive" topic Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I'm not complaining either. I've felt a bit of warmth on my legs occasionally on very hot days and only really notice it sometimes when stopped at robots or riding really slowly. Both of these bikes have so many positives going for them, it's a minor thing for me I'm not conscious of 99.9% of...

That screen looks good. Let us know what you think of it once you've had a chance to try it out. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I swapped out tyres when I took delivery and went straight to Scorpions. I've only been up to 180 so far and no wobbles, but the front starts feeling quite lighter the higher the speed. Manic, my keyless entry seems ok so far except for when I locked the steering once in a car park, it would...

Bikes in for the first 1000km service now. I asked them to check the "KTM My Ride". The problem is you have to re-pair the phone and headset basically every time after you switch the bike off or headset off. I'm told they are aware of the problem and KTM will soon release another software update...

Thanks, looks good. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Please post a pic when you have it. I'd like to see it with the screen you're adding. It does feel a bit breezy with the standard screen at times, especially coming up behind cars or trucks. It seems to work best at its lowest setting for me. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Yes, I think it's worth it. You'll meet people at funduros and off road events who suffer the same addiction and get to ride it way more often. I'd sell both my 1190 and 600 long before I ever got rid of my 300 if I were forced to have to choose. I suppose it depends on the type of riding you...

Nice pics and thanks for joining us Dogmatix and Bosspierre. BP your attitude was great on some difficult sections for that big 640. Incessant sections of whoops are not great fun - even on a plastic It sometimes gets a bit much - you did really well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
