    I guess your KTM would've been dearer than this, and am I correct the SM is
    a supermono? I wanted a trail bike :)

    No, that's any bike ridden by Monz.

    I have already made the greatest contribution to the fight against climate
    change that I can make: I have decided not to breed. Now quit bugging me and
    go and talk to the Catholics.

    I'd have had that off you if I hadn't got an insurance quote first.

    Only if you're silly enough to sit down when off road.

    It may well be, but I've got the other bikes for big mileages, this will
    serve duty on green lanes around here and most of that is spent stood on the
    pegs :)

    Go and sign up here. www.thumpertalk.com loads of knowledgeable people here.

    There is a wealth of information here about mods that need/could be needed
    to be done.

    Read the FAQs, change the oil every 600 miles (if you do a lot off roading)
    or 1000 miles if mainly road.

    There are a couple of loctite fixes as well that if not done, should really
    be done.

    I have 16K miles on mine in just over 26 months, I commute on it, and not
    uncommon for us to do 150 miles in a day out on the lanes. (from just
    outside SW London). I change the oil and filter every 1000 miles and have
    had no problems with it.

    You will need to develop a cast irom bum as the seat isn't the most
    comfortable, but there are worse.
