Those old ktms are rare for a reason and its not because they're hide away under a blanket in lads garages as their pride and joy, it's because they all fcuking blew up and rusted away.

Some amount of the big BMWs on the road now, brother in law bought a new one in 2020 and he's currently in Spain on it, cost a small fortune buying bike, panniers and all the other extras he got. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
