"Sam, how does it feel to fulfill your contract by promoting KTM?"

"It feels just great, especially knowing that another $50k is being added to my swiss bank account"

"Well that's wonderful. Over to Joachim. Joachim - you're paid to say how superb KTMs are - what do you say?"

"KTMs are superb"

"Sam, you are a Dakar rider with skills miles beyond those any likely KTM890 owner will ever possess. How well does it handle? "

"It's brilliant. Just watch me throwing it around in a way nobody who buys it will ever be able to copy"

"That's splendid. Now go and buy one you mugs, because after this video you will believe you can ride like this"

Does this mean a rush of 790s onto the used market?

if they made just one more it would be 701,

I fear it would not be powerful enough for me in the wet welsh mud.
and a bit light for traction over slimy stones.

A bit more power and weight makes any dirt bike easier to handle!

Oh and don't forget Birchy's quote ' Although i love my 790 adventure r, the 890 is a better bike'!!! doh, guess i better cancel my 790 purchase and try for an 890 then, but bet ill end up number 701 in the que and miss out lol... Or i could just wait until the next model comes out and see what Birch says hehehe
