    Welcome to the world of big Tards! , boys here don't get a look in sideways in the twisties and they hate it, you got her up on the back wheel?, nicely balanced bike mate and a real wheelie weapon ... so I heard cos it is illegal and I would never do that

    Unlike sportsbikes that look fast standing still, and every cop you pass seems to be drawing up a mental list of what he can do you for... the supermotos look like big dirt bikes (aka, harmless fellas)

    Too often I've kept a nice low wheelie through large intersections (y'know, accidental like) and by the other side find its err... got a little higher

    Lucky, I was spotted by one of our local feds and he didn't think my level of skill and experience should be shared with the general public ... meany

    No ticket but HUGE bollocking and cautionary note to be good , unfortunately in a town of 6000 and I am the President or The Wanaka Motorcycle Club so I am kinda known

    KTM insurance

    Hey fellow KTM 950 SM riders! I've just been told by my current insurance company, eBike, that they will no longer be insuring bike in NZ.

    So, I was just wondering who you guys use for your KTMs?

    Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Cheers!
