Thanks Tim for coming all the way from sunny Watford to Streatham to look at my bikes. Nothing wrong at all with the KTM apart from a flat battery and some new brake pads, bar ends and a check over for the Triumph. Friendly and efficient service and will no doubt give you a shout again.
Thanks also to Matt for the info on the R&G exhaust exhaust protector will look into it.
Nice way to spend a day off work tinkering about in the sunshine:)
