    Fair play Kate, that weather was BRUTAL!!
    Welcom to Wales (in the summer 🤣🤣🤣)
    You could see, even with the poor conditions, how confident you seemed to be, on the KTM.
    I could tell, from the riding and talking, that despite the vile weather,
    you were actually enjoying yourself 🙂
    I think you summed up the bike perfectly, great bike for someone, like me, who wants to do a little green laning, very light off roading, but also cover a fair few miles on road.
    It's exactly why, I bought mine!
    Personally, I think it's one of the best 'middle weight' ADV bikes out there,
    because of what you get, the physical size and power of the bike, for the money.
    Yes, I know, quick shifter, cruise control etc. are extra.......
    I'm really looking forward to a more, indepth review, in the future.
    Awesome video Kate, keep it up.
    Grumps

    I loved the intro.
    For me, an undedicated rider, if you combine rain and dark riding (dusk, night, dawn), rain and wind, or wind with night riding that puts my discomfort level beyond my safe riding threshold.

    I have 3 scales for forecast wind gusts in the UK when riding the motorbike, 50mph: be careful, tuck in. 60mph: avoid going out. 70mph (hurricane force almost): extreme caution, only emergencies!

    Good job done Kate. Says a lot about the usability of that bike that it's equally accessible to a rider of your size and someone like Chopsy who is over 6' tall and twenty odd stone. Not every adventure bike can pull that off.

Never good to tighten up on a bike. About the bike though: As good as it may be it is UGLY! Especially in white. Like an electric bike design gone totally wrong. And I love electric bikes!
