    Bought the ktm 690 from a good guy in new plymouth....was as advertised and mint condition...rode back to welly and it handles like it was on rails....tons of power and easy to lift the front wheel......a friend of mine ...ahem....said he accelerated from 100 and just started to hit the red line at 150...very impressed so far but need a bigger tank range as reserve came on at 170kms....looking at a nomad 4ltr tank which straddles the backl of the bike.....cheaper option by far...

    Got good news for you, you must have another gear in the gearbox as just checked gear calculator for 690 http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/sh...ing-Calculator

    Speed at 7500rpm in 5th gear 151kph, in 6th 171kph (owners on Internet are reporting top speed at between 170-180 so sounds right as motor should pull 8000rpm ok)

    Win win

    Yeah, Vege got pinched on one at a CCA.

    He was stopped doing 138km/h just after the Belmont loop and when he told the cop he was relieved that he wasn't 40 over, the cop pointed out that he was in an 80km/h zone...
