Snakeboy that's a very good point and one that has concerned me too. I've spoken to KTM who don't do a low octane map for the 790, though I will ask again before I go. As it stands I'm packing a couple of litres of Silkolene octane booster, and I've invested in a Coober lambda manager so it doesn't run lean (for emissions) low down (were you spend most of your time). I'm cautiously confident we'll be OK, but it's not just a KTM issue - all of the new generation of bikes are designed to run very lean.
