Where was the bike-jack attempt Gerald?
Also - was the KTM chained up?
Mine was nicked a year ago from outside my house then used 4 months later in a smash & grab in Knightsbridge - was a 950 SM which I thought was the crim bike of choice (rapid enough, good two up and can climb a flight of stairs if it had to). Have replaced it with a Duke 3 which wouldn't be so great in an armed robbery but would be even more fun to ride to destruction on some wasteland...oh dear.

Thanks I'll look them up. I went to a place in Kennington many years ago, I wonder if it's the same place.
Did something silly - i rode on a soft rear tyre yesterday. It was scary. I took corners as slow as I could and it still felt like I was drifting in a rear engined vintage sports car.
In other news a friend had his Ktm stolen but who he thinks are the east end bike gangs (you know the ones ; balaclavas, no helmets and wheelies). Couple of weeks before he had a motorcycle-jack attempt.
If you're riding a ktm duke or scrambler affair take care out there please.
