    I thought I better get the 9k service done (as the bikes now done 10.5k) Took it into Pheonix last night and he tried to sell me a new MT-01. Planning to do a few miles the week after next so thought it was a good idea to have it checked over.

    15 kilometers..... :-? I knew KTM's could be tempremental but oh boy!! ;D

    The one thing I have found with older bikes is that the servicing is a lot easier than the newer machines...

    Not bad £188 and they replaced the front brake fluild as it had discoloured. Now got about a cm of brake level movement until they start gripping.
    I can't believe the price of engine oil now (Yamlube) and it took nearly 4 1/2 litres of the stuff
