At what power level do you start breaking things?

I should be pushing 340-350 now. Anything further than the inter cooler swap and I’d start shoring up the internals.

Put a refundable deposit down on this pending a test ride on Monday. To replace the gixxer. Maybe



Butt ugly, but fun, apparently.

I prefer the black model, but there's a deal on an ex demo orange one so we'll see.

Have you thought about the difference in maintenance and reliability between a Japanese supersport and an Austrian supersport?

I have been looking at KTMs for the last 2 years and it's the single thing that's kept me from pulling the trigger. Reliability.

Nah, it's new, got a warranty.

Will you only keep it during the warranty period?

Paint it in shades of black, and give it some army-issue panniers to hide that yawning gap between the rear wheel and mudguard.

Then never clean it.

That is my preferred strategy for anything with wheels…

Almost certainly, I get itchy feet very quickly...

Won't get the orange, it'll be black
