S4 Foggy - Page 2

Hi Albie

It hasn't been started or looked at for about six years my brother has had speed triples as his day bike and just moved onto a KTM trail looking thing, he said I could use this as it's just sat there in one of those steel bike box/garage affairs. Steeevvvooo I'll post some pikkies from unboxing to road.

Regards

Im so jealous and I have a new bike. He's my idol and I so want that bike other than the mirrors

It's a pity Daytona lost the carbon clutch cover and the standard exhausts after it had been pdi'd there. It is number 68 of 300 and It also has the reg number S4 FGY :-)

Pick up standards exhausts for £50 but you wont want them on there anyhow. I noticed the cool plate.

I just checked all the boxes in my garden.... Grand findings of a few snails, one slug and a big centipede

Life is so unfair LOL

Looks great Ian

Thoroughly go over the bike and get it serviced with belts and fluids and oil change. Tyres will need to be inspected at least. They may have degraded and cracked.

Dont be tempted to lets just see how it goes please.

I think they have ohlins suspension dont they.

Have fun though .

i rode albie's old s4 for uksurfer from kent, now i got a m750 as u can see.
it took me about 2 miles to get used to it, and i fipping loved it

just seen the pics, she's lovely

Looks excellent - once you get it on the road, we'll have to meet somewhere. How good would it be to have two of the ten, that were registered in the UK reunited !!!

Hey Paul

That would be great, I am on my bro's KTM 690 SM prestige at the moment whilst the re commissioning of the foggy is going on. Ian

How lucky are you two. I remember seeing them on sale in mcn. Around £10,500 I think. They came with all the standard gear and paddock stands and a cover if I remember.

they sound almost the same as my cromo which is a higher spec that the S4, hope ou enjoy it foggy was the man :-)

Slight set back, connected a new battery and the alarm went off, tried the fobs but they didn't turn it off (datatool 3) phone local bike shop who said it could not just be taken out as it would have shut down certain or all the electrics, but they could fit the latest datatool, that's odd I thought it couldn't be taken out as it had shut the electrics down! any suggestions please!!! Regards Ian

just a thought, what about contacting datatool? it may just have defaulted to factory settings and need some system setup to be done?
