ParticipantTraded in my MV TUrismo for A KTM 1090 Adventure. Picked it up yesterday from dealer near Wakefield, so 170 miles on it already. Now off to Kent for the weekend, then a trip to Scotland in two weeks.

ParticipantDone 431 miles over the weekend, very happy so far. Only issue is it’s marginal on seat height with the KTM ergo (comfort) two part seats. It’s about an inch higher than the stock seat, nearly dropped it when I took may mate out on the back, firstly when he climbed on (very ungracefully!), and then when we had to make an enexpected stop. For now I’ve put the stock seat back on, I’ll take a longer term view on the comfort vs height issue.
I’ve also fitted an LED bulb conversion, very bright, but need to adjust the light down quite a bit when I got back tonight.Sorry about the picture, I can see it OK, but I’ll try again with a link.

ModeratorLooks great! If that is the comfort seat in the picture it does look high. I would be inclined to go for the more manageable height personally
