I hate how it looks like that stupid face, that is on kites. when you look at it from the front.

Although I am a big fan of KTM. I rode a KTM 440 2 Strock bike for a couple years, when you get into engine mods and parts, they get into your pocket real deep.

They also have updated the super retarded OffroadReality comparison thing. Personally I think they should put turf mode on all their sportsmans and not just the 2-up. An unlocking rear diff would be great in tight spaces.

Yeah parts are probably going to be expensive, but did you read this?

"As part of Polaris’ strategic alliance with KTM, the Outlaw 525 has a powerful 510cc KTM engine, is leaner at 395 lbs. and is the fastest accelerating production ATV available. "

Now thats probably with a restrictive exhaust, I dont know if this is true or not and nor do I know what you have done with 450 but this thing must rip, But on the motocross track ??? ???, yeah right. Maybe the engine would be good, but the IRS, from what ive heard doesnt do well at all.

I had a choice between the Outlaw and Raptor 700. I chose the 700. The current outlaw was nice, but a little on the kiddy side. I dont like the face design on the front and am sick of jetting. Happy with my selection so far.
