    was on my way to work this morning when i saw a bike just like mine parked up, it was a bit of a shock as i thought i was the only one locally.

    i stopped to have a closer look, and found it was a sinnis apache not a pulse adrenaline like mine, then the owner came out and we had a natter about what was similar, turns out almost everything barring a couple of panels and the pillion pegs is the same, so when i want a nice shiny rear swingarm or some none painted foot pegs i can order some off the sinnis apache amongst other things

    mine is closer to the camera

    You wouldn't believe the amount of people who ask if it's a ktm, must be the colour.

    Plus I have been daydreaming about a ktm 990 adventure for when I grow up!

    As much as that! I thought it was only around £120 to buy the chromed parts you need off the pulse?

    Is there a video of your bike with the exhaust?

    nah not atm got really bad quality video sound recording on my phone best way is to describe it is my bike is now louder than a harley devidon since its all straight through pipe pretty much she back fires lovely as soon as im off the throttle or slowing down in a lower gear best part about my exhaust its worth £200 being a DEP silencer but the dealer fitted it for free since the standard can was affecting performance way too much
