Post by: yfzkid450 on May 23, 2005, 06:33:14 PM
Ok i just talked to my dad he is in fl remoldeling our house for when we move and he went to a dealership today and he seen the new ktm quad it was a demo out. this is the info i can tell you. It is red and white and has a black motor, it is 500cc and it has chrome rims and little billet lights on the front. He said the price is about 9k and he also said he thinks this is the one he is going to get. Thats all the info i have but just wanted to give you guys a heads up on whats coming from ktm.

Yep there have been rumors about it for probably almost 2 years now. (or atleast it seems that long)

I have ridden big bore KTM 2 strokes and four strokes. The only thing I had a problem with was costs of parts. They are the most expensive parts on the market. Just a little history for the young guns. Before the JApanese invasion of the dirt bike world, there were 30 or so motorcycle builders around the world. Ossa, CZ,, penton, husky, rickman, BSA, triumph, puch, hodaka ETC. These were all very competitive machines untill the japs came over with their race bikes. 98% of these bike companys went bankrupt. Penton became KTM and survived the invasion. They are a very strong bike company with a limited following of hard core enduro racers. Go KTM

Wow! liv2, that is one sweet ride. Looks familiar.
As far as a rumor to making a quad, they have been making them for some time and are expensive. Double the price of some quads. I guess that's why you don't see them in the GNCC, too much.
I will try to find an image of the one I'm talking about. It looks fully enclosed.
Made me pee my pants, ninja88!
