Sold my KTM, but still itching for another sumo. The manufacturers' tents at the this weekend's MotoGP race didn't help. MetaJew fucked around with this message at 03:47 on Apr 15, 2014 |

Razzled posted:Does anyone have a concrete opinion on the DRC edge2 tail lights? I need replacements for my OEM setup but I don't want anything that is overtly unsafe because it's hard to see. Is the +$80 12oclocks upgrade board necessary to bring it into the realm of safety? I put the DRC Edge 2 and this Custom LED brake light modulator in my 625 SMC after nearly getting rear ended. http://www.customled.com/products/magic-strobes-brake-light-flasher The Edge 2 seemed pretty darn bright to me, and the brake light modulator seemed like a good addition. I had it set to do 3 fast blinks, hold, and repeat. It can do some rave-level-flashing patterns, but I thought those might startle whoever is following me more than just alert them that I am braking.

Maybe KTM has gotten their poo poo together in recent years, but I would be very hesitant to buy another, especially a used one. Regarding the 2013+ 690 Duke, how much would one expect to pay for it out the door? The idea of dealers not budging on price and then tacking on another grand for "assembly" really sucks. At least that's what the local Triumph dealer wants to do here. The KTM dealer never even has new street bikes for sale-- they say KTM will hardly ship them anything. \/\/\/\/\/\/Edit: Lol $6500 for a 690? In Houston and surrounding areas, they're priced more at $8k+, when they actually pop up, and that's generally for an '08 model year.

The Vapor for my KTM was an upgrade in every respect. Perhaps the DRZ gauge is better. However, having a readable display, tach, water temp gauge, and being able to program the odometer to match original mileage was great.

On KTMs the oil pan also acts as a glitter trap so it's good to empty it regularly.

That is a good price relative to what else I've seen on Craigslist in Texas. Most of the SMCs I've seen for sale are listed for $8,500+ and have way more miles.

Sounds like it could be a slipping sprag clutch, like others have said.

$16k for a sumo... Someone wake me up when the 701sm is selling for less than what my local KTM dealer is listing for old stock 1290 Super Dukes. Also, when they are affordable.

captainOrbital posted:I forgot to ask the lady if I could cancel my medical coverage on State Farm. Last time, they offered me something so pointless like $2,500. Yeah that's going to make a dent. In Texas, if you sign up for it and then want to cancel you have to mail in a few signed documents saying you're declining coverage. It was a pain in the rear end when I had to do it.

How do you possibly get traction in the dirt on slicks--- And then, not have terrible traction on tarmac when your slicks are covered in dirt?
