I think Sirius has traveled half the known world on his at this stage and I don't think he's had too much trouble from it.

I've had mine since new,(Jan 06), and can't fault it. A great all-rounder. Two up with all the camping gear and it pulls like a train around Europe. Take the luggage off and chase Delooney around the KTM test track on a Sunday. I've a little over 60,000 on mine now and it never let me down. But like all bikes try before you buy.
PM me and we'll sort that. :thumbsup:

Good morning Ozzy

I've mine just under a year and I'll love it, its a bike you will stay on all day/night and get off at the end of your journey as fresh as a daisy. great on the motorway as well as the smaller roads.

Your very welcome to have a spin on it any time.
