As an ex CCM and supermoto fan/owner/hooligan I always discourage anyone against them."don't believe the hype etc".So why do I find myself drooling over KTM dukes and the new stunning aprillia SXV,not the pegaso thing!

For me its the design and the individualism that goes with it.

May check them in a year or so.

Mate of mine has just gone from an CCM R30 back to a SV650.

In his words

"The CCM is absoultey fantastic, for about 30 minutes"

I was speaking to John,one of JORDANS-Leeds salesguys and he was saying they wouldn't take another in because they were so bad!I really struggled to sell or p/x mine till they took it against my sv.It cost me nearly a grand in parts alone in 2year leisure use.Good job i'm a mechanic or it would of bankrupted me.BUT THEY STILL SOUND AWESOME

I've just had my KTM 950SM back after a long lay off - Got back on it & it was awesome, I really had forgotten how damn good it was to ride

Build quality is great compared to CCM too - However, 4 months in a workshop with a faulty headerpipe is unforgivable
