My bail $ would be more than the cost of this bike.



Love it though.

Ken, you know you need it.  It's been too long, my friend.

[Ravyn]

Amen.
The dark side sure is fun though

My bail $ would be more than the cost of this bike.

You only live once  

Not helping, am I?  

[vulcanbill]

That thing should come with an orange jumpsuit.  

[R Doug]

Mother F'er do I miss mine!

KTM briefcase?  

[Ravyn]

KTM briefcase?  

One of the 'perks' of KTM ownership. Every new bike comes with a briefcase that holds the parts manual, shop manual, and user manual. Sometimes a nifty KTM pen.

Interested in a Mint 2006 Daytona 675 in trade?  My interest in Super Dukes has recently been renewed...

Don't forget the bottle opener.  An essential "tool" for working on any bike.

Love the D675's. I had one in graphite. Right now I'm edging more towards an adventure style bike like a BMW R1200GS, or on the other end of the insanity scale the S1000RR.
Thanks though

That bike makes my taint feel funny.

[stromgal]

^^  Indelicate, perhaps, but sooooo true.

Price drop - $7500 - negotiable.

Your killing me here.

Somebody PLEASE buy this bike. I've cut myself off from the outside world in self-imposed exile in an attempt to resist the temptation.  I can think of no logical reason to want this bike so, other than pure, rutting lust.  Their are no roads around here where I can even begin to exploit this bikes reason for being.  The Ontario stunting law will ensure that this bike will cost me the asking price + the $10,000 fine that comes along with it.  Even now, as I sit here and type, I'm already going to be late for work, such is my desire for this bike.

This bike is the hot Russian mail-order bride of the motorcycle world to me.

I know the feeling.
Damn, and I already have the hot Russian future bride!

GLWS- Great looking bike!

[expatbrit]

Glad it's across the country. There's two SMs for sale here now that I am mightily resisting...

[Ravyn]

Shipping is always an option, and way cheaper than airfare for you're hot Russian mail order bride.  

[bungie4]

True.

I started walking down the road of importing the bike into Canada. One of the items is on the list of 'importable' vehicles into Canada. The 2007 Super Duke is listed (it's year specific), the 2008 is not. Basically, if a specific vehicle is not listed it is considered inadmissible.  In fact, no KTM's after 2007 are admissible.  Weird though, you could buy the Super Duke (and all others) in Canada.

Thank god.  

Good luck with the sale, that bike is cherry looking.

[falconati]

Bump - cmon scott, you're the closest one to this.  Just buy it already.

PS how do you store this in Brooklyn?  I've been trying to figure out how to keep a bike secure in the city.

I rent out space in a moto friendly metal shop. My bikes are always kept off the street and sipping on tenders during off hours.

[Stripes]

Dude... I was thinking of getting a Speed Triple as a second bike, but this Duke looks sweet! You've got me thinking now. Hopefully I can find one closer to me than Brooklyn & about a grand less. Good luck w/ selling this bad ass machine! Cheers

[Ravyn]

Thanks, Stripes.
1050 S3 and the SD is no contest. The package is that much better on the SD. The stock suspension is excellent right out of the box. Then the Brembo's, Marchesini rims, and chromoly trellis frame ooze handling prowess. As a package it flat out works, and is a way more unique ride. I say this having been a HUGE fan of speed triples, having owned a '99 and an '05.

[Ravyn]

Super Duke needs a home  

[Dan K]

How's the super duke on the track? Have not sold either of my bikes yet (or even posted ads...I'm always a reluctant seller...) and I'm trying to figure out how to make you a realistic offer...

[Ravyn]

A total blast  

[Ravyn]

Still available. Fall's just around the corner  

[Ravyn]

Still available...
Interesting trades considered - sport touring and adventure bikes a plus  

[Dan K]

2006 Sprint 1050 ABS with 16k+, lots of tasteful mods (TOR, HID's, upgraded RR, etc.)? Right side tipover with vertical scratches touched up (but not touched up very well - previous owner). Mechanically great.

I'd have to sell the Daytona for a more useful commuter/every day bike...but it has one more track day in reserve for Sunday, so we'll see!

I have this awesome KLR....

[Ravyn]

Hey Dan,

Thanks for the offer, but I already had a sprint 1050. Would like to try something different.

Oh sure, offer up the KLR instead of the Tuono

Well, you said you wanted an Adventure bike.  

[Ravyn]

Well, you said you wanted an Adventure bike.  

Ok, how about less adventure and more stimulation or I'll trade you the SD for the KLR + $7000

[falconati]

You'd be overpaying on a KLR at $500...  

[Ravyn]

Here are some shots of the SD in it's more - ahem - 'touring' - mode  

[Ravyn]

Trades off the table...need cash.

[Ravyn]

Sexy new shots uploaded  

$7500 $6900

[DogBoy]

Thats a whole lot of awesome for $6,900. Good luck with the sale.

[Ravyn]

Thanks, DogBoy

Saturday morning, someone's gotta want a Super Duke bump  

[Ravyn]

Final price drop before I start pulling parts off and turning it back to stock.

$6500 - FIRM.

[falconati]

Wow, did you post that on CL?  At $6500 I would think it would go super-quick.

[Ravyn]

Wow, did you post that on CL?  At $6500 I would think it would go super-quick.

So would I.  

Yes, it is currently on CL, and besides the usual whack jobs, and scammers, I get the occasional lowballer who wants to purchase the bike for $5k - and that's not going to happen  

[vice]

Someone is gonna get a good deal at $6500.  Wish my bike was sold.

[falconati]

So would I.  

Yes, it is currently on CL, and besides the usual whack jobs, and scammers, I get the occasional lowballer who wants to purchase the bike for $5k - and that's not going to happen  

......so wait...would you take $5125?  

[Ravyn]

......so wait...would you take $5125?  

Sure.
$5125 + Falco = sold  

[falconati]

Hah!  

The Falco is a beast and I do not wish to part with it.  I barely have room for my bikes as it is, so I did consider selling one of them.  But I realized I didn't want to get rid of any of them, so instead I'm going to get creative when my Duc rolls in this week  

PS if I ever get more serious about owning a bike in NYC, I'll message you.  The only thing stopping me is the imminent fear of having my bike stolen/not knowing where to keep it/etc.  I stay at a quiet place on the UES, but I'm used to the midwest (even tamer than the UES ).

[scottzilla]

It's a bad time to sell toys.  It's also a bad time to buy a new car; I can't get any dealers to budge.

Definetely hit me up. I've been riding in the city for twenty some odd years, and have lots of pointers I could share
The great new development is these motorcycle specific garages where the rent includes the use of a communal lift, and tire machines.
BTW, I'm also living on the UES, which is ok for short term street parking. Theftwise seems most go after sport bikes and sumo's/dirtbikes.

[Mastros2]

Congrats on the sell! Someone got a nice bike at a nice price.  

[falconati]

^^^^^^^agreed.  If I hadn't already spent the money on the Hyper, I would have bought this.  Glad you finally got it sold.

[Ravyn]

Thanks, guys.

Falconati, the hyper is definetely on my bucket list
