@StreetTripleMat @spicy110sm its just a meme... TC is not a subscription add on... in fact KTM don't do a "subscription", you just have to pay for the extra optional tech to be unlocked which is a one off payment.

KTM may be further in the shit here ! Subscription for traction control is a bloody piss take and I hope he wins in court

@Hippo_Drones I think I’m looking for the impossible, one bike I can use for everything….. running two bikes gets expensive ☹️

@15griffiths I think you have been trying to make up your mind on what bike you want for around 4 years now... any closer to doing so?

@Hippo_Drones That 390 adv looks nice but I’m not sure I could buy a KTM.

@chipie303 Aye for sure. I quite fancy the new Honda CB1000F, but with the issues the Hornet is having I am not sure I trust the engine in that yet, and it is a bit under powered with no more torque than the others in class.

@Hippo_Drones There are just so many good bikes these days! We are spoilt for choice but the price of some of them is absurd! If money was no object i’d have the new GSXR1000 thats about to come out! £17,500 i believe 😳 Can thoroughly recommend the GSXS1000 as a solid reliable machine tho!👍

@chipie303 Ta for the info. Took one for a spin a couple of years back but ended up getting the GSX-8S as it suited better back then. Am contemplating getting a 1000 but not sure which one currently

@Hippo_Drones Its the 1000! I find the power delivery fantastic all through the rev range! The quickshifter is buttery smooth up + down! Its comfortable! Throttle reaponse is instant but not jerky! My last 2 bikes were GSXR600 K5 + then GSXR1000 L6 + performance is sort of in between them👍👍

@15griffiths Hi Ian, I sold the Beta last summer, went around the same time as the Aprilia. Currently have the Suzuki V-Strom 800RE, a KTM 690 Duke and KTM 690 Enduro R.
