T.M. Roe Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 Things have picked up for one of our local KTM dealers. I called to see if he still had a 1290 GT on the floor (he just sold one but has one more in the warehouse). He said he has sold 12 bikes this week with more sales to come (Supercross in town this weekend). Good to hear. I remember picking up my RT and riding home March 4, 2000. Link to comment

I'm guessing with the warm-up this weekend dealers will see an uptick in business. We're supposed to be in the upper 50's Saturday and Sunday. Link to comment
ESokoloff Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Neither is BMW, but they sell it. Just not at a convenience store setting... Why let facts get in the way of a good story? Link to comment
tallman Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Daytona looms... Wherever people are, and what ever they ride, this time of year, hope springs eternal and sales start to swing upward, We scoured the region for good pre-owned bikes to have them in stock for theis time of year. Would sell the new ones, but many are looking for a good deal and upgrade. Often they would ask, "what's the best oil for my new bike and we would say..." "read your manual, or this update from BMM wrt fluids/intervals and follow the mileage/time maintnenance schedules." "Yes, but what's the best oil?" Link to comment

ChrisNYC Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Well I popped in here for my monthly visit, saw some old familiar names on this thread and thought I'd take up some bandwidth! My 99 RT is still solid and I'm riding it regularly (even in this roller-coaster winter weather) ... A few weeks back on a warm spell I installed a new ignition coil in my little KZ, took it out for a spin before the snow came back ... I still visit the Oilhead section to see how the others' are holding up ... ------------------ Chris (aka Tender Vittles ) Little '77 KZ400 in the Big Apple Black '99 RT for Everywhere Else, such as ...
