Good old KTM, making the metal last the distance...lol There is enough room to fit just the lunch box on the factory plate, there is enough room for the refrigerator with food in it on Ryan's one.
I know what one I would want. The bigger plate is great for putting luggage on it in both directions without overhanging and drooping...
Good Job!

Thanks for posting that pic Eddie. That factory plate is bloody tiny. Glad I started getting these things made rather than getting a factory one. Just sold another big plate to another inmate.

after looking at eddies today, it just might work in with my plans for the bike.

Dont have any "monsters" sitting around. Got a couple of "middies" but then you already have one aye. You want one urgently or should I add you to the list for the next round of lasering?

Cheers R

I met up with Joe yesterday and rode Joe's bike back to back with mine and I couldn't believe the difference, I've never ridden 2 bikes of the same model and year that were so different.

Where Joe's had sag and was compliant and absorbed everything mine had very little sag, was rock solid and bounced over everything. At rest mine sat about an inch higher.

Any ideas on where to look for differences? Joe's bike is where I want mine to be. Mine has the standard 140/255 spring fitted, I couldn't see the numbers on Joe's spring due to how the spring sits.

The rear shock on mine has just been rebuilt by a KTM dealer to standard specs and is currently set to the factory soft settings

mines just a big fat lazy boy,,,,just like me..
