Here we go taking the mick again LOL.

You would not do that if you saw me dismantling a bike, screw, by nut, by bolt. Been there done that. :D Or how about putting an inner tube in first time, no kinks, no nicks, no punctures.

Simples LOL.

ROFL, joint effort for some parts. Why do you think the forks where correctly filled, callipers hung right and wheels perfectly aligned, sheesh you men take the biscuit sometimes. :D

Spoons LOL, no spoons involved, tyre levers yea. You really think I am going to use my best spoons to put tyres on, er think again. :rolleyes:

Come on LB, can't tarnish the good silverware!:rolleyes: lol

Kitchen items are fair game as workshop tools around here, you know for the tricky jobs.
I did get a "WHAT, my good pairing knife" the other day though lol:D

Come on LB, can't tarnish the good silverware!:rolleyes: lol

Now I find the best quality silverware is stronger and tends to bend less :eek:
Oh I do feel sorry for my mum:rolleyes:

Here's a couple pictures of my other two KTM's I've owned. The 04 525 exc was loaded ready to be traded on the 06 950 Adventure:(. I bought the Adventure so my wife could share the fun as she had gone off the idea of riding her own bike & I could still get out on a back track or two or three. One 2hr trip is all she did (& no I didn't scare the .... out of her:D) thought it was too boring sitting on the back & of course I wasn't allowed to liven the ride up either:(:(

Note the center of the sign forget the rest lol:D

Nice bikes blwnawy I have ridden both the 950 and 990 adventures and omg for there size are very agile and light, but I did still struggle to reach the floor :eek: I never ridden the 525exc only the 450exc and that was more than enough power for me off road haha.
Shame your wife didnt like going out on it much :( She much prefer to be riding then :D

Ever seen one of these?

This is one bike I wish I'd kept. They'd be pretty scarce now, not sure how many were made.
It was a XN 85, a factory turbo Katana 650. Had a digital boost gauge on the dash, once the boost came up wooshcaa she'd get up & boogie :eek::oops::cool::D . Probably nothing stood along side a modern bike but had character & fun factor.:D
