Born again biker - KTM Duke 390
Discussion
Been thinking of getting a bike on and off for years really. Part of the problem has been that I fancy a Ducati v4s but know in my heart of hearts that I couldn't ride it and would never use it.
Anyway, thumbing through Bike magazine I had seen a few reviews and adverts for the KTM which all looked good. It was A2 compliant, light and easy to ride so I figured that even I could probably handle that. I do have a full licence from the olden days but not really ridden for 20 odd years.
A quick look on Autotrader and, as fate would have it, there was this 67 reg one at Lancaster Motorcycles which is just down the road. I had used them in the past and they were very good so, after a quick look, I was £3k lighter and the bike was being delivered to my door.
Had it a week and done 200 miles just pootling around, loving it so far, had forgotten how cold it gets though!
