The KTM beast
My KTM in Wales in May 2021 - Click to enlarge
I finally decided to replace my Honda NC750x DCT. The Honda was a great bike, very easy to use, never stalled due to its DCT gearbox but it was very underpowered. It was a bit of a job trying to keep up with my fellow IAM riders out on our Sunday rides. Plus it didn’t help seeing this video from Yammie Noob about the top 7 dorkiest bikes . My Honda made the no 1 spot. :(
Anyway, changed to a completely different beats. The new bike is the KTM 1290 Super Adventure S with 160 bhp, manual trnsmission and a hell of an attitude.
