I've not tried the XD4 or the Hornet, so can't make a comparison. This one's a Uvex Enduro (http://www.fc-moto.de/Helmets/Uvex-Helmets/Uvex-Enduro). For the price, it's not bad, but the antifog...

Stalker
From your description, I can confidently identify the beast as a yeti. Apparently, since the onset of Global Wetting, their numbers and their range have increased dramatically. Be assured that...

What's a bit of radiation between friends
I was wondering the same. I also wonder what the residual contamination levels are like in this area, which is regarded as the worst radioactive mess on the planet.
Where did you guys draw your...

Stop ignoring the rim design
This tool is for those who haven't noticed that every rim is carefully designed so that the bead on the one side can be dropped into the "well" while the other side is easily and quickly levered into...

Speed rating
As long as you remember that the Starcross is only M rated (130km/h or 81mph). :deal

New 1200GS
Not that I'd want to replace my 990 R with either bike, I think that in that class, the new BMW (1170) 1200GS would be my preference. And it isn't really any heavier than the KTM.

I doubt that one could draw a reasonable comparison. The 1190 Adv has a modified RC8 power plant in it. The cams and ECU in particular, are purpose designed/tuned, so I would expect the fuel...

I'm a very mellow and conservative rider. I had an 800GS, and I now have a 990R. I chose the R because I don't ride tar if I can help it, so I don't like ABS. Also, I flat-foot the R, so the non-R is...

What new model?
KTM are not bringing out a replacement for the 990 Adv any time soon. As far as I can ascertain, the new monster that's on the way is an addition to the stable, and is designed to compete in the...

One for the myths thread
For best results, I'd suggest a mixture comprising roughly 78% nitrogen, 21% oxygen and 1% argon. Don't worry about trace amounts of other gasses.
Also, for optimum performance and longevity, I...

990 vs F800
I've had both. The only thing that speaks in favour of the F800 over the 990, is fuel consumption.

Dirtbike shmirtbike
That's because it isn't intended to be a dirt bike. Who in their right minds would try to design a dirt-bike that is bigger and heavier than a 990? This bike will be a dirt tourer at best - along the...
