You lose credibility, such as it is on this forum, but also when you do post something relevant ot the bike, you'll eventually be ignored .

I think it would be more beneficial for you to find out what the current issue is, post it here, and use the knowledge some have gained here to steer your dealer in the right direction, in terms of repairs. I'm not blaming the dealer, KTM or yourself for your bike being side-lined. I'm just saying get it fixed as quickly and efficiently as possible, sell it or ride it, and bottom-line, get back to enjoying your passion. Use this site for what it is intended for. Good luck.
Nicely said.

Wes

Being a fellow advrider & 950 owner, i would like to rid you of your unhappiness, frustration & all other feelings you may have for KTM & your 950. Now considering the bike is a POS, i am willing to have the bike picked up from the dealership & a courier deliver $5000 CASH to you personally. I believe this heart felt outreach is the first step in your healing process & a chance to move forward in your life. PLEASE contact me ASAP, remeber the grass in greener on the other side. PM or #661-212-0566

Your savior & friend

If you are so confident in the bike, why the low-ball offer?
































OK, more seriously, Wes, who's the dealer that can't get the bike back on the road?

Shit, my 2 biggest gripes are 1. I can't post pictures of all the places I've been (cause I'm an idiot) and
2. Any of my 950 issues are self inflicted because I've screwing with it! but I'm still riding the hell out of it and learning more and more! I love it!

P.S. I hate bitchy customers more than anything! Remember your dealers didn't build it or design it. (Were not smart enough) We just fix em! That's what were good at and we started doing it because we are enthusiast's so stop crying and buy your dealer some beer and say something nice or we'll park it in the back and start working on the cool guy's bike!
