In depth

History:	Bought the last 2008 orange model in the showroom at a knock down price. Had the bike sent to DreamMachine for black paint job (again, at a special rate). Had the Akraprovic exhaust system fitted, tinted screen, tank pad and orange rim tape fitted by the dealer and collected the middle of March 2009. Had its first service and there was a customer at the service dept that had a KTM with black levers, he had sold his bike but kept the levers so we did a deal. Thinks thats about it. Done nearly 1000 miles since mid March and the rear tyre starting to show signs of some serious abuse. The only thing I don't like is the poor ridability at low speeds - 30mph is 2nd gear and alot of clutch work. We're not quite lovers yet but we're getting there.
Modifications:	Akraporvic, black gloss paint job, tinted screen, tank pad, rim tape, ktm black levers
Problems:	low speed throttle control
Comments:	Corners with ease, pin-point precise and inspires confidence no matter how far you lean it over.
