Yeh yeh yeh, very good, nuffin' I don't do every time I go out

I do have to say though, the bar end mirrors do make the bike look very odd out on the open road sections. Looks like a plank of wood tied across the bars.

Overall verdict, I have to say, "wouldn't kick one out of bed".

Stll prefer the Shiver 750 though!

I have to agree, but what a bike

Mirrors would be in permanently I think...

Fuel tanks is a LOT of a let down - You'd be lucky to get 80 miles out of a spirited ride...

What's this with your 1098? On hold? What recall? I've been waiting for ages to see something about your new bike , when do you think you'll get it?

Those are some amazing drifting skills at the end of the video. Taking one hand off the bars was a bit flash!

The 950 Supermoto has a larger tank, which makes it slightly more practical, but other than that... Besides, who'd buy a bleedin' KTM
