Hi all

Sorry put up a couple of posts and realised I hadn't introduced myself.....dashed bad form.

After having my 650GS Dakar nicked earlier in the year I decided it was time to Orange and I pick up my sparkly new 990 on Monday with all the goodies thrown in from the recent offer.

It will be my first KTM so I guess I'm going to have a few questions along the way.

Still a shithole but it's all chavtastic, I'm out in the countryside so don't go into Maidstone that often.

River Bar has gone under now, no pun intended.
