KTM faces a very uncertain future, so if it goes tits up then you susah la.

The 790 is a damn nice bike, no doubt - the split fuel tank does wonders to make the bike feel light although I never liked 21" front wheels in general as I make no pretence of being able to ride a 200kg bike on anything beyond light gravel surfaces.

the pesky vibration is still there in the newest 2024 version.
the handlebar vibration is now ok but the engine vibration right smack at 130 and above is still there.
The vibes at the handlebars used to bother me a bit. My solution was Barkbusters, Grip Puppies & a 17T front sprocket. Somehow after my 2nd valve clearance service where 9 of the shims were changed, the vibes went away.
