KTM SuperDuke riders

[98tls]

Coming back from a ride over the pigroot today i called in at Palmerston for gas and as i was about to leave a bloke pulled in on a SuperDuke,a bike ive admired from afar for quite some time but for awhile know have settled for throwing money at my old girl and thought my days of buying a new bike were done although just the other night i did remark to another member that before i depart the world of sports orientated bikes i would love to own one of them.Turned out the guy was a TLS fan from way back although never owned one and loved the various things i had done to mine,whilst he was looking at mine i stood drooling over his KTM feeling the daggers in my back from the old TL who must have felt like an over dressed old slapper being compared to a well built 18 year oldThe bloke offered me a ride on his KTM but as i was supposed to be somewere else combined with not liking to ride someones pride and joy i declined.Anyways as usual i cant afford it but will find a way i would like opinions on said bike from those that own them.Both good and bad.

Whatever it takes ya mate,just get one.To be honest the opinions i get wont sway me from getting one unless when i ride it i hate the thing but i cant see that happening.I just would like to hear what blokes/blokeeses think that own them

Give DMNTD a PM for a sexy time.

I take it he works at/owns a bike shop then?

[ZeroIndex]

Are you sure it wasn't DMNTD? He used to have a couple of TL's

No he's a slut and likes boys...

No idea....guess not unless he was downunder,as i said he was a bit of a TL fan but said he had never owned one,had a few mates who had them in the past.I never mentioned KB but who knows he may well be a member,his name was Brent anyway fwiw.

What your saying is decline his company on a test ride then.

[Waylander]

Well, he does 'work' at a bike shop now.

I've only had mine a month or so and I've only just finished running it in, but I'm real happy with it so far.

After a couple of minor issues with build quality which I'm told is unusual (fingers crossed) it's been great.

I'm still getting used to it as I said, so I haven't pushed it too hard yet, but it's slowly bringing out the hooligan in me .

If you're really interested in opinions from owners check out http://www.superduke.net/

From memory there is a well respected KTM dealer in Palmy, I'm sure they'll have a demo on.
