    Over a KTM anyday.It's like comparing Ferraris to Porsches,one's flash and powerful,
    the other starts and run all day!Think the clue is in "Enduro",a competition bike compared
    to an overland bike-and it's 'heavy' due to all the Euro rules for road going machines,a huge
    weight could easily shaved of it!Remember,twin discs,twin noise emmision controlled
    cans/mufflers,fairing/screen,big comfy seat etc.......and a bulletproof motor,not a grenade!

    Incase you fell off your KTM and slid under a rock for the last 3 years,there is a recession on.I could probably find
    you 30 for sale........and as many KTM 690's!I'll be buying one on my return to Europe,nothing else competes with
    them(not a Rotax fan,so BMW's are out too).

    well you might call it a rock....but its been a home to me :cry .....atleast you spelt KTM in capitals though :D ....there are a couple of 690sm's for sale but no enduro's :evil good luck on your purchase....least theres plenty to choose from :rofl:rofl
















    :hide

    oh and if anyone is asks...I don't have anything against the XTZ, Yamaha's or any other bike or manufacturer (except HD...goes without saying) If it makes you smile thats all that counts....teasing rednecks is fair and reasonable though.

    Signed it. Why not?
    I haven't had a Jap bike in a hundred years or so, though. I think it was a Transalp and you know how bad they were. :deal

    Nothin wrong with the Transalp. Very underestimated bike and still going strong as the 700.
