Lights No great shakes here as you’re looking at a top end new bike. You get the LED set up and the dual front beams of course. Riding at night in the pouring rain (see MEM weekender) I had no issues with the vision provided by the KTM lights. The highbeam stick is easy to find and no accidental flashing going on. I’ve come to accept that LED is the way that bikes are going and I can understand that they look cool and use less power but I do still miss the old school pack of bulbs in the tool kit rather than having to get an entire new unit for the back light etc.
