Couple of new vids up.
I can only assume someone is holding a gun to his head and he is being forced to say nice things about that absolutely hidious KTM he's been given. If it was me, I really would probably say no thanks...but then, I guess if he's good and he get's to keep it he can always sell it afterwards...
Well, he has a S1000RR so it's obvious he doesn't care much for front end looks I can only assume someone is holding a gun to his head and he is being forced to say nice things about that absolutely hidious KTM he's been given.

.I don't think the front end on the KTM is that bad, at least it's symmetrical. All in all it think the bike looks great, and it's supposed to be somewhat of a monster. He has all the pretty bike he needs in the Duc anyway

He sold the S1000RR.....I don't think the front end on the KTM is that bad, at least it's symmetrical. All in all it think the bike looks great, and it's supposed to be somewhat of a monster. He has all the pretty bike he needs in the Duc anyway

So if you could win a £14,000 bike, you wouldn't tell a few little white lies to be in with a chance of having it? Let's face it, if you just start slating it, bearing in mind the whole point of this competition is to give the bike and the brand exposure, you'll do nothing but embarrass KTM and they'll pull the plug on your chance of winning in no time.

Besides, you can't see a bike when you're riding it

It's such a pity about how the KTM turned out.. The prototype was such a good/mental looking bike..I don't think the front end on the KTM is that bad, at least it's symmetrical.

.It still looks ok though and must be amazing to ride!

Turning sickening now, but if it gets him the bike fair enough.
king quick for the road..... fair comment DrDoofenshmirtz said:
Good vid. I suppose we should make the most of it, because nobody is going to buy one, and you'll certainly never see one being ridden by a dude in matching KTM gear (LOL).
It looks good in the flesh I reckon, and my local has certainly sold out. BvG obviously isn't a fan but not saying.

From the staff, so obviously taken with a pinch of salt. But probably not hard when they were only given a handful.
I've just been dealing with a dealer and bought a new KTM. He said they could simply not get the demand for the SD. Couldn't even get a testride as they all sold.
I bought one. 3600 miles under the tyres now in all weather, and I can honestly say I have never referred once to it as a Jizz machine. This is the first BVG film i've seen, and I must say he strikes me as a somewhat of a pillock.
Not sure what basis does he have for saying the BMW will probably be more reliable? Ive had KTMs for over 80,000 miles and they have never let me down, aside from my right wing mirror deciding to leave me yesterday but that is probably due to a few hard landings of late.

What makes you think he is a pillock? He seems like a pretty decent guy to me.Mastodon2 said:
