Title: Here's a NICE KTM
Post by: Lonesome Dave on September 26, 2012, 09:12:45 PM
Man I wish a needed a new bike, this might be it.  I know I could ride it up that Idaho single track, or at least push it! 

Seriously, it looks like a nice bike.

That's a very clean looking Katoom!  Seems significantly overpriced though?  And I don't think his claims about the 400 being the BEST all-around motor are shared by the rest of the orange crowd... that would likely be the mighty 300!

rode a couple 400's and thought they were pretty underpowered? the 450's are nice, but I think a new 350 would be perfect!! If I decided to ride a deisel ;)

I have avoided test riding a KTM bike because I know I would then have to buy one. However, I do use KTM hand cleaner.  ;D ;D

I think one of the new 350s would be perfect also.   47? hp and like 230 lbs.

chased a guy on  a new 350 up and down the single track around nemo a few weeks ago, it appeared to work very well.
