If you’ve already done 23 track days you’re going to want to sign up in Intermediate. Novice is a very structured group completely aimed at the new rider.

I still plan on being there baring any unforeseen issues

I thought all the planning was already done.

It’s the little things that hit all the right spots

No sir. I took what you said and giving a Street a try. You did good job keeping us in sight on yours so I’m going see what it’ll do. If I don’t adjust to it I’m not going to be out anything reselling and getting a Speed. The seller caved to my offer

The decision has been made and cash removed from the safe. Making a short road trip after work today

She is impatient, she’d get bored waiting for your viagra to kick in

And how do you like it

14 & 15 R models. All at private sellers. The Speeds I’ve looked at were at dealers No offense ment but yours is way over priced. It’s a 10 with 23k on it. I’m looking at 15 R’s with 1800-3500 miles for the same money. Found several similar year and miles as yours for half the money. Pony has a 12 Speed Triple with half the miles for only $500 more than yours.

Yea I’d agree. He said they’ve shown 500 of them in CA since Jan.

Yea I don’t know. Their theory on that is because the bikes are here just not being released. He said their system shows them in California and has shown them there for some time now. But on hold.

I’ve loved mine. The dealer has tried to get answers and they get no where. The 790 adventures are here but not Duke. They believe it’s a US Emissions issue but not confirmed. They’re out overseas with stellar reviews on the KTM forums but no luck here. KTM had one at the last motoamerica round last season for twins class testing and according to the demo emails it will be on the demo ride trucks. But not releasing for sale. I’m bikeless at the moment and frustrated lol. Theres a 14 Street Triple fairly close to me I’m going to look at after work or in morning. If the woman is as comfortable on it as she was on the Speed I’m going to most likely take it

I’m not saying I haven’t considered that

Still not available state side. Dealer doesn’t know why. Their allocation keeps getting cancelled. I had them cancel mine and used the deposit I put on it on a side by side. Thats why I’m looking for a used street or speed now to ride till the KTM makes a state side release. Im going to go look and ride a street 675 r in morning and probably pick up and run it till the 790 KTM gets here and see how I like the street R by that time then either get the 790 or the new 765 Street R

That’s the kind of info I was looking for Nevin. I’m now looking at both the street and the speed. I like the idea of the street just concerned I’ll be bored with it or miss the power of a liter bike. I’ve not owned anything but liter bikes other than the supermotos for 12 years lol. It will be an adjustment for sure. Sat on a couple of both today. Both feel the same to me sitting on them. She likes the feel of the speed better. Says it’s the most comfortable bikes she’s sat on the back of ever. Only looking at R models in either. Guess I need to go ride them and pick one. A couple dealers around here have used ones. It’ll be one of the two just need to figure out what one.

Gotta keep the ole lady’s butt happy too. She likes cushy

Bigger comfy seat and Ohlins from what I’m seeing too The street R still doesn’t get Ohlins it get KYB and Showa

Why would you choose the street over the speed? Would that still be your choice if the street was still a 675? Or is the 765 that much better?

12 Speed Triple R

Are we talking full size passengers or is the baby back? 😂

That’s not even close to a sport bike. That thing is hideous

Got a 98 Katana I’ll let you have for 4K. Dont try and lowball me I know what i got and what it’s worth

Dear god don’t say that

So you’re saying you don’t want to see him for a few years again?

My father in law, a city cop. My father, retired sheriffs office drug enforcement. Both dumped a fair amount of cash into growers and dispensary companies when the medical marijuana thing legalized. They did and continue to do very well. I thought ironic due to their professions. FWITW. I know not exactly what you asked about but worth a look.
