ARGHHHHHH! This is the worst bike I've ever owned. and also the best to drive. Had so many problems with it, it's unbearable, takes all the fun out of the thing
The bike has been smelling of gasoline the past 2 days but I couldn't find any leak, and there was not a pool under the bike - so I took it out for a drive.
On my way home from a spirited drive, I drove over a small hill and became airborn. 10 seconds later my foot slips off the rear brake pedal, I look down as it felt too slippy, every thing is wet. WTF
At first I thought it was the water pump seal thing, because it's just been repaired.. Stopped the bike, and it's pissing all over in the right side of the machine, and I can smell its gasoline!
The tank has broken just behind the spoiler.. shitty picture shows the shitty carbon fiber tank:

I'm so fooking tired of this bike, I've driven less than 4000km on it, and I've had troubles with the battery, the starter torque limiter, the water pump seal and now the tank. ARGHH ffs.. I feel lucky that the bike and me didnt burn.. but maybe that would have been a lot easier
I'll have to write a snail mail letter to KTM in Austria. I'm going to complain, I think it's ridicules that a ~2666 Dollars fuel tank stops working in less than 10k km.
DOES ANY of you know where to get the large tank to the regular SD? 17 liters or what it is. There's only a couple of tanks on Ebay right now, and it's the small ones and to 300 euros
