HiYa 👋I didn't expect the coffee shop to be like that at the end, even free wifi, and the talk on burning was an education. London has a shortage of KTM dealers, and zero husky ones. Newest KTM place is just on the south bank next to Mi6 😊
That is a shame about the KTM, but makes sense to get shot before anything goes wrong with it. I love the thought of perpetual summer, but I'd not be able to cope with prolongued high temps like that... be nice to have a little less rain than we've been having though 😀
Hi Pete, yeah, I'm loathed to sell the KTM as the price has crashed for second hand ones now. I'm hoping that KTM will return, at least the 390 is popular here as is the 200, so spares may be ok for a while. I'm coming to Blighty at the end of May and I may get a chance to test the Triumph 400 at Washington and the new KTM 390 at P&H. The heat here now and the last 10 days or so, has been intense, 30 at night and 40's in the day. Riding here is a bit torturous at any time. Although, I'd rather that than perpetual rain, cold, grey and miserable for road riding.....I always get my fix on your channel of riding in all weathers and in familiar places!! Take care mate and enjoy the glorious Spring of the UK......
Been out on my 390 the last few days; the SCR for a few days in succession before; the Aerox gets used daily. Buying some decent kit when I go back to Europe next month. All my gear has fallen apart. How are the CTs reliability wise? Good to see you back on here, Dave. Nick
Hi Nick, I'm bummed out about KTM pulling out of Thailand, really had my heart set on the gen3 Duke 390. Thinking of the Triumph 400 now, I will test one when I go to the UK next month. I know what you mean about kit, it doesn't last long in the heat here, especially rubber and glue!!!!

The best London KTM dealer used to be Bracken MW. I bought a 950 Adventure from them in 2005. Great bike.
