Next Phase

I'd need a stepladder and outriggers to ride that thing.

It is a very, very tall bike. I'm 6'2", and I can't even come close to flatfooting the damn thing.

Octo will be back latest next summer... KTM is certainly a nice bike but nobody will turn his head after him. And you get used to this in time and don't want to miss it. See you then nect summer

Hahah. I appreciate the thought, and I certainly will be back with a Buell at some point, but an older one that I can tear into and build the **** out of. Truth is that I get more looks and comments on the KTM than on the Buell, but I think that's because of the sheer size of the thing. When it's on its centerstand, it looks ridiculously tall. Also probably because leaning a bike this tall so far over in the turns looks dangerous.
