The crotch rocket thread

I lost a substantial amount in value on the KTM but it had to go. Ongoing handling issues the KTM were unable or unwilling to sort, I lost confidence in the bike and the company.
I had my KTMs on PCP, hence the frequency of change.
Purchased the BMW outright and intend to keep it longer. It’s a joy to ride and puts the KTM to shame in build standard and equipment.

Some lovely bikes there but a special :heart_eyes: for the XT500. I used to own one and, despite the cold kickback, it was awesome.

The RGV is a little cracker. …

Nah, it’s me as well.
Age has brought me wisdom and confusion in equal measure.
I was at a different show, in Hebden Bridge.

New bike plans.

A neglected Suzuki TL1000S.

I’ll need to get it close to stock and good condition to get it re-registered here, but then it is open season. Ditch the plastic, sort things properly.

Comes with a ‘Commander’ to sort the flat spot.
