      @grumpsrides42 Месяц назад

      @@RobSoap-i7t Personally, I think they're great. Easy to ride, good fun, handle really well, considering the 21" front wheel. You can cruise at motorway speeds, and have fun in the twisties, commutes well too. Not the most comfy of seats though! After about an hour and a half, to 2 hours, you'll want a break. Or of course, use a sheepskin cover etc. I'm getting around 250 miles (400km) to a tank, and around 60-70mpg (21-24km/l) So range is good. Easy to attach luggage for a long trip. Will go off road easily, no need for mods, unless you're going seriously off road (enduro style) Green lanning, trail riding, all good on stock tyres. Stock Pirelli's are good on road too, so make a good 'travel' tyre. My only real issue, is the screen. I needed to fit a screen extension, to mine. I'm 5'6 (170cm), but I've never found a screen that works for me! Hope this helps, but it's only my opinions, I'd advise checking other owner reviews too. Lots of videos on my channel, on and off road. Thanks for the support, have a good trip next year. Grumps

I came to the same conclusion as you have with the T7, great bike but didn’t satisfy my needs. I was coming off a Africa Twin and wanted something more old man friendly. I’m not disappointed (at this point) what so ever. I did have to take my 790 in shortly after purchase for a quickshifter re-set as it wouldn’t go into 4th through sixth. Works perfect now.

    Swap in a lithium battery and adjustable levers and it's pretty sweet.

      @Tiax776 I'd agree with adjustable, possibly short, levers. Not bothered about a lithium battery, tbh Thanks for the feedback 👍

    So for anyone reading and trying to decide... Mine is 23, bought it new, at 6000 Km the fork seal leaked, KTM doesn't cover the seals thru warranty so I had to pay it. 8000 km approximately battery died, bike was 8 months old, so the battery didn't fall under the guarantee... I had to buy new battery... Before battery died , Cruise control stopped working and my rear stop light when front brake pressed... Some sensor issue on the ABS. At 15 000 km rear disc plate is worn out and ready for change... Front brake liquid container is leaking... Want to buy it? Can't recommend. Am curious what is next? Now am trying to get sensor, brake pump and a disc on the guarantee...

    Oh dear! You need to do something about your helmet cam mate. By the time you had got to the end of Hatfield Road, I was feeling decidedly sea sick. The video was bouncing around all over the place.

      Nice honest review. I've bought one in player black. In NZ. You can't ride flat out and keep you licence. So Having a super fast sports bike is only really good for posing! This bike meets all my requirements plus! I'm having a blast riding it and keeping up with bigger bikes on our twisty old roads😂.

      @recidivist11 Awesome 👌 Thanks for the feedback and support. You're very lucky to live in an amazing country. I visited NZ, over 10 years ago.... Stayed with family in Taranaki. I took a couple of car journeys over Mt.Messanger.......WOW! What a road! Would love to visit again! Be safe, ride safe and have fun 👍
