It is important to me though there is more to it than that, I wanted the B3 Brutale based on riding the IL4 version, I've not ridden a naked that felt as 'good' including the (magazine rated) better MT09sp or the triumph street R.
It just happens that it is also a fairly exclusive brand.

If that ...

Beautiful looking!

Just to add to the lockdown boring purchases made..
I now Headrush!


How are you finding the headrush?

My pedal obsession got out of hand a few years ago,I think I've 3 boards and a bunch of allsorts boutique schitt. :lol:


I love it! I'm running amps and IR's into the fx loop of my JVM410c ...

NO RAGRETS!

The FLT-90



Agufish Signature

My first ride on a Brutale was a 4 cyl 989r tbh I was pretty sold on them at that point. That was between owning my 04 RSVR and 1100 Monster evo.

Cheap electric guitars. They should be terrible but they're surprisingly ok.
I assembled one, as a kit, over Christmas really to see how awful it might be and because the length of the Christmas break can be well boring ;)

Yeah the electronics are at the cheap end but I was expecting real out ...

Unless you are seeing the same failed component on each bike it’s somewhat irrelevant?!?

It is the same failed components and on the plus side I'm told that they know about it and will give you a new engine when it goes bang because they know it's a problem on some bikes.

Crikey!

Erm... well, when my mate bought his MT09SP which would’ve been between lockdown 1 and 2!?

KTM want their exhaust design back?

Following a look into a workshop with several mashed up engines I take back what I said, I probably wouldn't buy another, unless it was the new engine (2021) - but then I said last last time I walked into a KTM workshop and found a load of bent valves and smashed pistons.


Walking into any ...

I’ll add more to this later. Just out walking.

I've been slightly swayed by some of the discussions on here suggesting that you should buy a bike that moves your soul, not just you arse.
I mean I always buy bikes that I think will have a bit of magic but I also consider reliability, parts availability etc. So Japanese, Triumph and even Aprilia ...

Happy new bike day Mrs W

Last time I asked for advice I bought a John Ryan. Now added a plywood base over the sprung slats.

Alternatively, buy one with a free trial, try it send it back, try another etc

Seems all the neighbours who were notified and some who weren't have objected lol.

I guess we'll see what the borough council planning have to say.

As it is now.

This is our plan

Certainly, at the moment all I do is sit and look at mine so I guess I kinda have it already.....

It is pretty!
