Ktm Superduke R

Unfortunately, I doubt that it will be KTM but Aprilia, instead. My nearest bike dealer, Frasers of Gloucester can supply, I'll get the valve checks done on my Ducatis and when I get my license back, I'll ride the Ducatis and visit dealers. When all this lockdown crap ends and I get my license back, I will buy kit (I need everything) and start again riding the Ducatis.

Riding about will allow me to visit dealers in my area and that includes Aprilia, KTM and BMW places, The final decision will come from test rides and even just sitting on the bike to get its feel. I am in no big rush as it is not only no license but I don't think that I can physically manage to sit on a bike - although I can start practising that right now.

And that is not facing up to family opposition!

 

Got it! And it’s mental!! Here’s the beast inspecting the beast

 

That looks awesome. I prefered the orange, but only just.

Now all you need is a decent exhaust!!

 

Does it wheelie? Even with your gunt on it..... ;-)

 

Gen2 I assume?

And yes, they are mental... If it's anything like the Gen3 for fun I can't see me dragging my Pani out for the road this year.

 

Yep, gen 2. 2018 first reg but I think it’s a 2017 model??

Hilariously grunty and so comfortable! Sports bikes make even less sense on the road now. I’m 100% certain I can stay with my sports bike friends on this bad boy

 

Yeah, I liked the orange too but preferred the black with flashes of orange. Good combo imo.

Zorst is ace! Nice throbbage but not obnoxious

 

Awesome machine, although I liked a bit more orange.
If you keep posting pictures I might have to get another!

 

Mine on the wet day of collection... changed a little now (no photos), tail tidy, AR exhaust, bar end mirrors, clear clutch cover to name a few.

 

That's the one I'd have

 

Christ, they’re everywhere!!

And no wonder.... great fun machines

 

Common as muck

 

Which AR did you get?

 

They're awesome bikes mate, like you say proper comfy but mental. It's what a Monster should be but isn't.

That akra needs a good thrashing, should blue up nicely

 

150mm V3 black with orange tip

 

Does it sound good on the stock headers? Was reading something on the ktm forum about the exhaust flapper valve disabling, did something similar on the Tuono V4 I had.

Just wondering what to do with the gen 3 as I really want the full system but not sure if will make a noisy track day in the UK

 

Looks cheeky that

I’m really looking forward to doing a track day on it. Haunt people with my big flappy number plates Like I’ve been haunted in the past

 

Have you got a sports cat in that system?? I think the zorst sounds great! Nice base but not obnoxious like my V4S! (Termignoni)

 

Looks identical and not worth it, IMHO.
