Orange....? You went for the ORANGE....? It was opined by someone who knows you that the black would be a "slam-dunk" (not their words, just their opinion). At least you can find it in a parking lot, it'll be the one in the corner...shouting! ;) Are you gonna have to hide that bike in 12 more evenings? :holloween: :unknw:

J/K Smitty. :clapping: Congratulations on the purchase and enjoy the riding! :clapping:

We will be awaiting the ride report with pictures come Monday evening.....

They look like fun bikes! The main thing I would be concerned about is the seat height. Isn't is over 33'? If you are tall enough I think it would be great.

 
One of the best Gncc riders Larry Rossler stand 5' 6'' and can not touch the ground. He did not have to he was a talented and excellent racer

As said before touching the ground highly over rated lern to ride your ride

 
Ok Smitty, you asked - 'what do you think?'

[SIZE=12pt]Fook you Fook You[/SIZE] [SIZE=18pt]Fook You![/SIZE]

[SIZE=10pt]There, I feel better now. You Fooker. Double rotten, throw down, good for nothing dirt bike riding, stream crossing, forest road exploring, 1/8 mile FJR beating FOOKER[/SIZE]!

I seriously want this bike.. My bud has an earlier year, done some simple mods to increase the dirt capability, and for the street, horsepower, and I have to say the bike rocks..

I hope I never ride one again.. Otherwise I too will cross into the dark side.

...hey, did you say KTM was having a ride day in Creston? :unsure:

 
*******. You no longer deserve to display that poster on the wall. Cough it up to a meet. *******. When can I have a demo ride? *******.

Don't ask for a ride TWN.. Wabs and CornerCrasher would soon be on the block and remember, you have commitments? Yes, they are that good.
 
drop it a few times.... run it thru the mud and gravel.... then post pics of the ktm that is built to take it!!!!

;)

oh, how was the 8 hr break-in ride?

 
Nice bike.

In September I went on a 2,100 mile tour of the Great Lakes. One of my riding buddies had one of those. He was able to keep up quite nicely with me on my FJR and my other riding buddy on his new K1200GT. We were not able to follow him off the beaten path, however.

Looking at adding a KTM to my stable as well.
