I had a RC390, but struggled to get my leg over - o'er missus! The pillion seat was effectively a seat hump to a solo seat and I struggled with it. Until a rode it back to Fowlers in order to p/x it against a Duke that effectively has the same engine. Of course, the last time I rode it, it was fine to get on!Buy one, yeah, yeah, buy one
In fairness, I think that KTM have changed the design slightly. I've seen the latest one in Fowlers a few times and it looks as though KTM have dialled down on the absurdity. I would recommend a road test, though, just to be absolutely sure. I never did a road test, so I can't lecture. At the time of buying my rc390, DVLA were still paying "keeps" with my licence - the bastids!You never mentioned You had issues getting your leg over
Same here in Ireland so I asked my dealer here when I was there last year and he reckoned the new colors fucked the sales up as people weren't mad on the new color scheme ... The dark blue or my black sold and the new orange and silver were left in stock to be discounted.. People probably waiting on the new model also
Doesn't matter what you ride it's an open platform, sorry to hear about your off. I have no idea on paint code but maybe a google or phone a KTM dealer for said question.I know this is a Ducati Forum, but at least it's the right thread...
Dropped the bike after losing balance at a standstill
Crash bar more or less did its job, but genny cover took a couple of gouges from the brake lever.
Does anyone have a recommendation for the engine paint on a 2019 Super Adventure S?

Cool. Mark has sold me my last 2 bikes. Always seems to manage to find that last little bit to get the deal over the line.
