In
I'm in.
Earlier the better for me (I need to be home by 1pm)
Haven't done any dirt riding for 6 months, so you may have to wait for me.

Hi Richard, put me down as a chance of being there (will confirm).

1190 'R' Ground clearance
Specifications from KTM suggest 250mm ground clearance for the 'R' (although below early post suggests less)

SPS recommended 0.64, so that's what I recently put in. Yet to test off road, but seems fine on road.

Forget headlights, indicators and brake lights - your horn is the only thing that matters on a bike in Asia! Have fun Kev.
