Here’s a little footage from the first ride!!
Dang, that footage made it out quick. That was just this weekend. Aloha snackbar mother****ers.

It's the price to play. You'll barely be going thru those 10 gallons in a season. I only planned on getting max 10hrs a season on the bike. Why I went with no ethanol.No ethanol-free gas near me.
I ended up buying two 5 gallon pails of 95 Octane Sunoco. With shipping is was $30 per gallon. Wife was not impressed. lol. There is some saying about begging for permission vs. asking for forgiveness?? Yeah, I chose the later.
You hit my problem on the head, the bike won't get a lot of use. Guessing no more than a few hours per year. If I did 6-8 track days next year, I'd be impressed.
And since I have five cops that live within a block of my house, the odds of frequently ripping it on the street are extremely small. lol.

That KTM looks so much fun. Do you ride them on track days with sport bikes?
It’s the old saying! “It’s not if you go down it’s when”. These things happen though for sure. My brother went down about a week or two ago. His fork seals leaked and got into his brakes. He was approaching a turn at about 90. He got it down to about 20 and ditched the bike. He made it out really well, he did what I never got a chance to do. So mad props to him. Bikes not so hot anymore though.Smaller tracks, yes, with sport bikes. I have two right near me. Blackhawk Farms and Autobahn Country Club. Otherwise I'll be on a proper motard/supermoto tracks at Road America and a couple of tracks in eastern Michigan.
I decided on this bike to scratch that track itch but have a much lower cost of repair WHEN I finally get to make my meat crayon (@LS WUT ) thread.
Are you going to add Sta-Bil to the container once it open?
I love the sound of those. Do it!!! The naked market is really on fire. I have those same mirrors on the hyper. I really like them. Slightly convex so they have a little wider field of view.View attachment 1824279
Currently for this 2019 MT-09 to **** around with. So we will see if I want one.
Yeah man, it’s been a fun rip around bike. It loved to do wheelies even in 2nd. Cool set up of bikes you’ve got bud!I love the sound of those. Do it!!! The naked market is really on fire.

But I'd rather have the Fox in the background!!
Should be some Casey's gas stations around you and they typically carry 87 and 91 ethanol free gas.No ethanol-free gas near me.
