3 months in the shop for accident repair....

Well, technically a little less than 3...but chompin at the bit. I have NEVER been this excited for a 10 mile ride than I am for this one!

Still have a couple of more weeks of not riding, so I will try and parlay that into getting an early green light to ride...

Take it slow. It's been freaking hot out there. Your body isn't used to it yet, so be careful.

I will be inspecting it before we pick it up...they have it parked in the sales area so I can scoot around on the floor. I cannot wait to be done with this dealer.
Fingers crossed, we will have 2 bikes back in the garage. Andrea has expressed interest in riding again, as an operator, so we will see how she fits with the KTM. If she rides I want her to be on that one because of the safety stuff, abs, tc etc.
We will see how it goes. Garage should look like this again...

I never thought I would see it, but that KTM sure looks much bigger than that Valk in front....

Only a few weeks away, you will survive, patience young man, patience!

Thanks for the calming words. Yes the KTM is significantly taller, although the difference is in a way that most would never experience, 11.5" shocks, a 205/55 car tire and the pillion seat as the operator's chair
This may show a better comparison between the 2
