Yeah got that, but how did a bike cause that :D
He, Her was trying to decide what sex they wanted to be. Was a vegan pre , next thing wearing thigh length leather boots like a w***e and obviously enjoying eating meat. :eek:
Threw me as we used to talk about bikes, this was before I sat my test.
Should also say this was in an engineering factory, all men on the shop floor.

I'm a newbie and always will be. You never know it all.
My first bike was a Honda (XL250s).

I tour with a local Honda dealer and always get the piss taken ‘cos I ride a Ducati!

im a not so newbie
My wife bought a 600 Hornet and sold it 3 years later to a dealer for £50 less than she paid for it,rode it all year. Excellent bike, one tiny spot of rust on the horn. Should have kept that one.

My Daughter had one, loved the bike even after having been on ZXR 400"s for years.
Hated the stupid small front wheel :)

Nope, but I’ve seen a few of the Honda’s have breakdowns over the years while Ive been problem free!

Oh, here’s some evidence. How I smiled!

KTM Duke 790 is the best bike I have ever thrown a leg over John. :xThumb:
So you rate the parallel twin motor then? I’ve not yet ridden one I like, so I’m keen to try the 790, perhaps I’ll get lucky with a courtesy bike when my 1290SAR is in for service.

They're too expensive and the new engines have been prone to oil leaks. Perhaps they're built by Land Rover :xrofl:

KTM’s are always expensive, leak more like an old Brit bike. I had a slight weep from the rocker cover after it’s first service, gave it a wipe and it’s not happened since.
