a mystery

Hauling a dead KTM undoubtedly had Dan smiling the whole way.

Now boys, in the spirit of truth, we must mention the age and miles that have been put on that old KTM. All though I do believe that nothing is more dependable then blue. I sure have had a lot more fun on orange. No one wants to here from you red or green people, so just stay out of it.

That KTM only has a bit over 5000 miles on it.

It was probably from sitting around to much.

Sitting around can explain leaks and carb stuff but rarely the cause of catastrophic engine failure.

Carb stuff is usually what causes most major engine failures.

I think I got it.  And I had no previous knowledge.  But after reading the comments I got it!

I'm going with this.  Last Sunday, Fletch was in Minneapolis with his daughter,  Wacked was in the Big Horns with a very broken KTM 640, and Buffalo was also in the Big Horns riding and wrecking his new 700 Tenere.  However, the T700 lasted longer than the owner who screwed up his ankle.  So naturally, Wacked rides the T700 while Buff lays around and complains about his foot.  Wacked was just cashing a fat check because he rented his house out to Harley riders for the week.  It all makes sense.

Certain something; T700  color; Black and Blue  (Too Tall hint)
From; Mitchell power sports shop to Wacked in Rapid City.

Congrats Brad..........and I win!   

Now I have a riddle;

Yesterday I'm riding back from Nemo after having a refreshment.  I cross Bogus Jim road and am now on Norris Peak road.  I see a very fast KTM with funny headlights coming towards me, looks like a 1290.  I know who it is, only one person rides like that.  I wave, and wave, and wave.  He doesn't slow down.  I brake and turn around to catch him.  I actually never did see him again, but I did see a string of dust on Bogus Jim road.  At the speed he was going, I'm sure he made 3 Harley riders mad that he caught up with on Bogus Jim road and passed.

Who was it?

"I think I got it.  And I had no previous knowledge.  But after reading the comments I got it!"


Ya Dave, you win if you disregard my post from 10:15 last night two posts ahead of yours saying it was a 700 Tenere.
