Second gg stolen in 2 years

[Simmo737]

Some people out there are scum, stolen whilst my wife was in the house alone, she's a rock solid customer but still isn't without concern.

I'd just knocked out the pipe dents, changed the front brake pads, added a boyesen flex grip (so brand new grips) done revision 4 to my front end valving, even slipped a new filter in for them.

The bike was just reaching 70hrs and was perfect for me. Bastards. At least it's insured for almost the cost of a new one.

My wife wants me to get another bike, just which one, either a 15 gg or 14 husky 250 I think. Anyone ridden the Austrian huskies?

That sucks man.

But why a white KTM

Ahh shit Mick. Thieving scum. I hope they get whats coming to them, and that the missus isn't too spooked by it all. I thought you had heightened security measures after the first bastards knocked off your 2011. Guess probably not on if people are home. If only these people could put their energy into contributing to society than screwing us all over.

That blows mate. Hope the missus is ok and like Jake said the thieves ride off a high cliff without a parachute.

I've ridden a '14 Husky 450 and must admit I liked it. Still has KTM ish standing on top falling over the bars ergos but the suspension was very very nice. Way soft for me but nice. Motor was very nice too.

Jay has his 1hr / 25k old demo '15 300 for sale - $11k so there is a cheap '15 to be had if you wanted it.

That sux. Arseholes reside everywhere unfortunately. Have had a break in while my family was at home, very unnerving.

Thanks guys, looks like I'll have to chat to jay.....gg again I suspect.

The wife is happy after some added security is being installed soon, she also has installed a 6 d cell mag lite that doesn't work next to her bed.... I'm scared now!

I couldn't do the Austrian thing, but apparently a street legal rmx 450 is due in jan at 10500 plus on roads.... Now that would be nice!

Truly disappointing to hear. Thieves are scum. That takes alot of balls to break into someones home while they are there. What is unnerving is that they know you are not armed.

Arizona southwest security means there is .357 on her side and a .40 on my side. And the flashlight attached to them is to identify them and the little red dot is where you want the hole to be.

I rode my buddies '14 TE300 on some Colorado single track this summer and I was really impressed. Suspension was set up well out of the box and performed very well. Motor was typical of the the KTM 300, which is a good motor IMO. I also like the gearing, which is like the EXC gearing on the KTMs. Small 1st and very tall 6th, not to gappy in between.

Find them and hang them..........

Just got a call from the local Area command property theft squad, my bike was in a police pursuit yesterday and escaped, superior gg handling and power

I think that means it's probably on fire in the bush somewhere now. Oh well.
