General G-Max AS-03's this will be the third full set whenever I replace the fronts. I got 39,000 miles on the first set, I got 38,000 on this last one.

I'm depressed that KTM doesn't make the RC8R anymore.
I grew up racing KTMs. I love the Super Duke 1290R

That was considered as something I wanted. I just couldn't justify the 17k. I had the 390 for like 3 months lol.

Yea, that's the downside. Jap bikes are way less and more reliable.

But something about a BMW, KTM, Ducati or Aprilia that just makes me smile so much more.

These are in the garage at my girlfriends apartment:





Two BMW's, a KTM and I forget what the red one is. Not pictured is an older Honda Nighthawk I think. There's a few nice cars as well but the bikes are really cool

This is my slow bike.

2014 Honda CB1000R with custom made exhaust, Ermax Sport Screen and tidy tail. It does great 12 O'clock wheelies lol.

Thank you!

I mainly bought it because it was a leftover 2014 with a single sided swing arm. Was supposed to be 12k, got it for 7K.

That's why I'm trying to finish painting this car.
