Feeling that I'm getting too old for the crotch-rocket '99 blade and wanting a bit of off-road action, I'm thinking of chopping this .....

(sorry about the cack phone pics)

It's going in virtually as a straight swap - about 3.2kfor each. What are the views on this deal?

Dunno about the deal, but I'm seeing a lot of supermotos about lately (if that's what they are) and have been wondering what all the interest is.

Are these things a real hoot then, even for commuting into work ?

Riding a KTM or Husqvarna and their ilk is as much fun as a Superbike but without the balls-out speed. Easier to flick and wheelie, too.... :norty:

Im sitting here waiting for 12 o'clock to come so i can race up the road on my new toy !

F***er now wants my blade plus 1000 euros for the KTM (!)

He can poke it! :razz:
