That think looks freakin sweet! That's an awesome video.

I wish I could ride a track like that, and I have that same exact Dainese suit.

the boy has some skills and doesnt mind backing it in......

 

[Plastic Cup Politics]

yeah he does have some skills. I didn't mean I wish I could ride that good, although I wish I could back it in like that on purpose.

I just meant I wish I could ride a track that nice.

Looks like we have a new player. As a dirtbiker by heart and having a buddy that own a KTM dealership we have heard of this coming for a while. CANNOT wait till it hits the floor. And yes I would love to back it in like that. He makes it look so easy..... but yet it is so hard.

I just looked up the bike it's putting out 155hp and 88tq Vtwin powerplant.

Looks like it will be a hell of a bike... wonder what the price tag will be on it..

 

[BLK K8]

i was toying with the idea of buying a twin as well as the gixxer, i think we may have one worthy now, cant wait for the demo..........

 

[Plastic Cup Politics]

Well it might be added to the future list of considerations depending on the price tag. But just looking at the instrument cluster on that thing it doesn't look cheap.

 

[Sarahj]

i know absolutely nothing about that bike but that video alone makes me want one.

A bud of mine just opened a KTM dlr here on Long Island last Summer. I went to the NYCity motorcycle show, too bad it wasn't there. It's going to be a great bike, I wouldn't be suprised if it's in the 15-16K range like the Ducati, of course I'm just guessing..

 

[Nate749]

15-16k sounds about right. Considering thier quad is about 10k alone.

Really ? Where abouts? I was looking at a ktm a few years ago (motard) and i was basically told from the dealer that it's a bitch to order parts.

It's that guy Dave I was telling you about in Smithtown, he's a KTM dlr. Right now he's got DBikes there, SMoto's are on there way. There is really only a limited amount of SM's coming to any KTM dlr, I mean like several is what I was told last week.. Parts? Your dead on, really a pain in the ass..

 

[BLK K8]

no parts problems over this side of the world, the forrests are orange. there is just not many of the ktm dealers my way who are v twin dealers which sux, coz i wanna test ride one........

 

[outofmydepth]

I know a guy that has a deposit down on one. Expecting delivery in April i think. I think he said all of this years delivery to Aust. are already sold. So you might have to wait a while for a demo!

 

[pee-wee]

Oz=Australia.
outofmydepth: Is it like Europe over there, when bikes cost $4-6,000USD, more?
I know in Europe they get slammed with the VAT (value added tax), which basically sucks..
