I am always looking and browsing for bikes and cars ... I spot a 2013 KTM 1190 ADV R with only 14 000 odd kms on WeBuyCars for only R98 900.

Yesterday I take a ride through there to go and look ... the bike is neat ... straight and stock standard with an AKRO pipe ... I take it for a 20 km test ride and everything feels lekker ... pulls like a steam train

Only negative for me is 1 key and no service history ... and by the date of the last roadworthy 8 / 5 / 2024 on the lic disc tells me that this is the most recent re-registration and that the previous owner had it for less than 6 months ... mmmm ... red flag.

I check out the service history with KTM SA this morning ... last service was done at 36 970 km on 5 / 12 / 2017 ... jirre ... This bike is so amazing it can go back in time because the current mileage on the clock is 14 595 km

I smell a rat

Here is the history of the last service I got from KTM
