The only green there will be is when the unique and good looking Italian and German bikes turn up in the carpark...

KTM Birmingham say they can't hold onto the superdukes and adventure bikes.

Very sad, they make great bikes too. I'm not surprised as the RC8 so nearly didn't get made a number of times.

Ktm didn't sell all its RC8s and I don't think it made any money for the company either. Sounds more like a money decision than a 'safety' decision tbh.

... easy via a single button which is great.I love the Rev counter watching it zing up and across the Rev range is great 8/10 Gearbox,I'm changing bikes because the rc8 gearbox is so poor,the kwack box is smooth and quiet and goes into every gear easily.Sorry ktm but you can't build a 15 grand ...

I suspect as you point out that there is specialist insurance out there which would get you a much lower price. People who have converted their bikes with turbos and the like have been able to get insurance at reasonable prices so presumably it's the reasons you've posted that are causing the ...

I don't suppose it helps they are all hand built in limited numbers. Spares costs must make the risk of right off very high I guess, still 30% of the bikes value for one years insurance does seem steep IMO.

I did a quote on a superleggra on comparison websites and cheapest quote was over £7000 but going to a Ducati specialist dropped it massively to £1900 but still expensive, although as Kwacky says it goes with the territory of buying and owning exotic bikes.

Yes I will try and upload some later. I am absolutely knackered now. Frankie took a load of photos. There were some gorgeous ex -race 748/916 bikes there. https://scontent-lhr.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xpf1/v/t1.0-9/11156338_915424888478574_3470319843557051748_n.jpg?oh=3e714da287245c0919efa20a2b137130&oe=55A31F6C ...

... properties. :( Bestest thing i found out today though was that this single event raises 80% of the annual income needed to run the Blood Bikes charity for whom this event is held. (y)

Most of the bikes I see in London are all pretty new tbh.

If it comes into effect in 2020 the bikes would be 13 years old so shouldn't effect too many, but agree not good policy.

Oooh, cheap 8 year old bikes up for grabs in the London area. What's not to like?!

... throw my leg over a motorcycle again....but it doesn't stop me loving them - a point brought home to me today when I saw a couple of contrasting bikes that made me grin like an eejit . First up was a parked up 09 plate red Ducati 848. It was achingly beautiful A tiny jewel that looked like it ...

What year is your bike? There was a major recall for 2008 and 2009 bikes. Do you know the date of manufacture. Might be worth a chat with ktm dealer locally as they will see if it had the recall for some gearbox internals. I get the odd false neutral on mine, ...

I get the odd false neutral on mine, nothing else.

Spanked it over to Stow for some cake.

Had a play with a Tiger on the way back

Swapped bikes with Perkles and had a go on his RC8. I love the handling on that bike.

So does it go like shit off a shovel then or what ? I've read they are great bikes with a bonkers engine Yes to put it bluntly it has grunt anywhere in the rev range. With the throttle wound back it feels like the front is floating all the time and I'm getting ...
