790 Duke but with 0 reliability/niggle issues.

So one that's been sent to Yamaha to finish but leaving the basic KTM lunacy baked in.

I'm getting to the point where an electric bike is starting to look like a good option.
Instant torque, no fuel to go off. Less moving parts.
Ideally I'd want one that doesn't requitlre a fucking app to charge it up away from home though, couldn't be trashed with that guff.

I'm not really bothered about the motorbike noises (I'm not 17 anymore) and just prefer them to be as quiet as possible

I was hoping you'd come round when you go to Twisted Oaks, I was going to leave you in the garage with a roll of blue tissue and a big can of GT85. :D

I've just spent an hour cleaning the GSX and it still looks grubby in it's nooks and crannies
