Cheers nicklouse
I have been about a little bit, and was a bit shocked to be offered one.
I have to give the chap a ring tomorrow.
I'll quiz him and keep you posted.

A shop here deals them but the owner says he prefers La Pierre

but then this guy would marry his LP if he didn't already have a wife, he's rather keen on them Wink

if you're after a KTM bike 'PM' me. My friend owns a KTM motorbike dealership and a KTM racing teram and has access to the bikes.
