Hi All
Long time follower first time poster.
First KTM too after a long line up of Japanese Italian and American scooters.
I have to say....the 1290 is the ducks guts !!
I came off an Aprilia Tuono V4 and for me this thing is so much more! The T was a brilliant bike but this takes it up a notch in enjoyment for me!!!
Anyway....I hope to meet many of you on the forum
Cheers
Black Superduke 1290 here. Haven't worked out how to attach image yet...I'll get there

Welcome mate.
There is another Nerd on here, (SDNerd).
You will get me confused. He is a bit of an opinionated Nerd so when you see his posts you think, "Hey up, what's he going to say now". He's not always wrong, just opinionated!
He will be along soon, surely, to claim some sort of plagarism rights!!

Thanks for the welcome chaps.
I'd make a shithouse Nerd...drink far too much piss to be classified a Nerd http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Bar-End-Mirr ... 8b0&_uhb=1

The GPR exhaust sounded pretty good by the way... nice bark without being obnoxious.

Thanks mrz32
Here's a little video of a mate riding my scooter. Sounds alright on big speakers.
This is the noise you get with the GP3 V3 Slipon with the 50mm insert and the baffle installed.
The 50mm insert knocks another 3-4 dB off the sound over the standard 60mm insert that is shipped standard with this exhaust. It cost another $70.00 but I'm now happy with the noise. Loud enough but not too loud.
