What is the "B" for?

[Oscar]

No trouble. Impossible.

My attempts at Moto-journalism suffer from the fact that I am a cheap date - easy to impress.

Must be all that time riding dirt bikes - Gimme stuff like carbon fibre, bright lights and gee gaws plus a surfiet of horsepower and I'm done..

+-100 ponies is my preference.

+-100 ponies is my preference.

My KTM at 100ish is good on the road, a leetle excessive on gravel and downright lethal on wet grass or clay.

Now that I've nearly finished modifying it to suit, the Adventure is a great all rounder. It needs/needed Crash bars, panniers (the mounts double as crash bars),hot grips, staintunes, high front fender, higher seat and bar risers and a steady supply of Continental TKC's.....perfect.

I was pretty ambivalent about the B-King. It's a decent bike but not for me.

My issues:
Bugger all feel in the front brakes
Get my leathers stuck under the tank flanges
Soft power delivery
No real sensation of speed - can be a bit dangerous, thats besides the boring factor.

As I said, not the bike for me, but not a bad bike. Tons of thrust.

As I said, I'm easily impressed.
What sort of KTM have you got?

[Devil]

690 Supermoto.
Did have a Triumph Speed Four when I rode the B-King though...

So... it's a bike for The Village People then?
