KTM 790 Duke // A Day Around The Lake District ✊

MY SECOND RIDE OUT ON THE KTM 790 DUKE.
I told you all I would return to ride the 790 Duke when the weather started behaving an low and behold, me and my friend Emma managed to catch a dry day!
In this video there is much more riding done than the last one and I actually got to get a feel for the bike!
** TO SKIP TO RIDING PART DOWN THE COUNTRY LANES, JUMP TO 9:40 **
Once again, a massive thank you to Dave Hodges and the team at Triple D Motorsports in Kendal ,The Lake District for letting me take out their KTM 790 Duke demo. Appreciated as always.
If you have any questions about my experience, let me know!

    ...I've been riding all my life since I was 14 (60+ now) and I am just thrilled to see women embracing motorcycling like never before in every country and Kate (and many others) is helping to increase and sustain that - my ADV helmet visor is utterly tipped to you with honor, respect & admiration! Also appreciate you "spanking" the 790 so nicely and sharing it!

    Oh those pre-covid rides, when you could just pull off for a coffee and a danish in a nice local coffee shop.

    Hi Kate and Emma, I enjoyed my ride with you both, my first time in the lake District, so beautiful. The perfect day out with 2 girls and 2 Dukes and from your description, the 790 was as smooth as silk and a pleasure to ride. Thank you both for a lovely day out.

    I bought a 390 Duke as a commuter so I could save my XSR for weekends. Its superb, light, nimble, fast enough for the motorway and did 300 miles commuting this week, returning 76.8mpg.

    'avin brew Kate? Nice to see you back out on the bike in far better weather. I'm looking forward to riding this bike. As an observation, I'd recommend taking a slightly wider entry line into your corners curving to your right. I know with the dry stone walls you wouldn't want to be too close to them, but a wide in tight out, slow in fast out, mantra will help you maintain the same speeds but with a greater safety margin. Love your 690 btw, very cool. Safe riding!
