Some footage from a hill climb during my trip to Italy

Bye bye KTM 1290 Super Adventure R

 I sold the bike earlier this year, this kinda makes it official.

Definately one of the best bikes I owned. Resale value plumeted however, it was on sale for quite a while. In the end it went to a neighbouring country where prices are usually higher.

I enjoyed my time with this bike, it allowed me to travel more and further. For me the only downside was its weight when the riding gets more technical.

Project P38 dse In the mean time...

 

NEW Bike!

I wasn't actually planning to buy a Ducati but did not want to deal with the KTM camshaft issues. I also bought the bike earlier this year in May.

It seems that KTM has admitted to the camshaft debacle and is actually refunding and paying for the repairs. Kudos to KTM for this.

But that's not the reason for this post. I mention this because I actually wanted a Norden 901...

To be honest the Rally is a good bike but a bit expensive and I don't like the after sales. Bit to expensive if you ask me. I also don't like the aura of elite bikes that surrounds the Ducati brand. Not my cup of tea. 

Quick 1st maintenance and tire change = 500€ (tires not included)😒

I used the bike this summer to travel to France and Italy. It definately needs upgrades.

More will follow.
