My new favorite bike: 2014 KTM 1190 Adventure S

I am still so in love with this bike. I’ve owned everything from multiple CBR’s ninjas RC 51s SV’s VFR’s, and this thing is hands-down, my favorite bike. I bought it from the original owner, a retiree that bought it new and put 1100 miles on it before deciding he should hang it up as he’s 80 years old this year. I bought it for $6000 basically new I then flushed all the fluids, including clutch, brake, coolant, and oil. I put new plugs and an air filter in it and a set of tires.

I am about to roll over 16,000 miles and it’s been dropdead reliable and an absolute fucking blast to ride. It keeps up with the super sports on the road and it takes me places I have no business going off-road.
