No, no. You are confusing their song about riding non-BMWs. I can't get nooooo satisfaction.

Would give my left ball arm to see a shoot out between KTM and SYM

 

[TheBear]

Would give my left ball arm to see a shoot out between KTM and SYM

Just not in fuel consumption, I suppose?

 

[MaddyS]

@ROAD HOG seriously I'll never get my butt onto that bike. I cam barely touch the ground now

Oh that's brilliant @TheBear let's do a fuel shootout @ROAD HOG

 

[ROAD HOG]

Just not in fuel consumption, I suppose?

No in the same weight categories at least

 

[MaddyS]

Let's say R200 of fuel and say 300kms
