M9 - thanks. I only climb easy to moderate stuff, but always seems to be some interest in it, so will keep posting up TRs.

Yes, my regular partner Quentin rides a CBR 1000 R - not quite as comfortable to ride with rack & ropes, but he's pretty game and we've done a good few day trips climbing on our bikes.

Same KTM - the SM950 I bought in Japan. As it turned out, it was originally built for export to Australia, so had an Australian compliance plate - which meant it was easy to import when we came back to Aus last year. Huge win! It is 5 years old now but going strong - I keep looking at new bikes (very tasty new adventure bikes on the market from BMW, KTM and Triumph) but cant justify $15-20k on a new bike when the SM is going so strong, so just pamper the KTM with a new accessory or two and go for another year :-)
