That's his efforts to try and captivate new and interesting members to the forum. He also bans pictures of nipples because that is offensive. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to get yourself a light off-road bike so you can go get raped by a moose. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I probably will if I sell it...just owning two bikes at the moment doesn't make sence to me ...just don't have the time and wyll there's still warranty left on the KTM I think it's time for her to go. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcel le Moose Fondler Posted June 28, 2023 Author Share Posted June 28, 2023 Don't know if I mentioned it before ....but when I took the bike out for a test ride ..the sales clerk said we had to top up the engine oil...I found it a little weird being that it was a new bike...there's a specific way to check the oil level on those and it looked like the tec was fresh from the Mc Donald's burger line and they just hired him...it was Sat ..I don't imagine their better tech work on Saturday so I hope ...so long story short ..I check the oil and there was about a half litre over filled.. dam. So my appointment is on another Saturday ...I'm a little worried. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same on my Africa Twin, basically the oil tank is inside the engine not external. Supposed to make the engine more compact by not having a sump hanging down underneath the engine, there's also a procedure to check it on the Africa Twin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So my appointment is on another Saturday ...I'm a little worried. The other day my mechanic had a BMW 650 with an oil leak to fix. someone was checking the oil when cold and keeping on adding half a litre at a time, engine was overflowing with oil from the admission, all breathers, etc…, it’s a surprise it ran with more than twice the normal amount of oil in, turns out there was no leak, it was just blowing oil out. Shame someone at a dealership does that, more so on a 30 grand bike. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya it's a shame....correct procedure is to check when cold...run for 30 seconds ..bike has to be upright and level...for the challenger.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zzzak Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 Hey Marcel, I was looking at your bikes specs and noticed that it is almost exactly twice the weight of mine and also has twice the torque so it should accelerate like mine does, however mine has 100hp so you'll need 200hp to match up.

Marcel le Moose Fondler Posted June 29, 2023 Author Share Posted June 29, 2023 Well last night I took it into some twistise ...and it felt like a sport bike ...probably not fair to compare it with my 2015 harley but I was taking it about 20kph faster and felt like I could have even gone faster...it felt solid and planted...no frame flex at all...the engine is part of the frame... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well with a stage one it's rated at 134 hp and with the speed limiter removed I would definitely get on the top end .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
