2015 KTM 500 EXC

Good lord these bikes are flippin' beasts and so easy to control the throttle.

What got me to looking was riding a WR450. The yammy was great, but the power was like a switch ... a little bit of throttle went a long, long way.

This guy is more linear in delivery.
 
I want! I want! I want!...I don't want to spend the money! I don't want to spend the money! I don't want to spend the money! Dang that Arkansas ADV ride. :doh:


You can store it at my place. She'll never know. :)

Also...secret is building up to about 8 or 9 bikes and then "reducing" down to 6.

It gets a bit dicey there for a bit.....and then you're the hero for selling off 1/3 of your bikes. :)

One concern....I couldn't keep up with you on the Ten....with the 500 EXC, I'd have no chance at all.....but man would it be fun to try. :thumb:
 
Dang Justin, you've had some nice rides. If I was in the market for this kind of bike, I'd give it some serious thought. Trade ya an AM Strat for it... :mrgreen: JK, GLWS!


What's next?

Hey Tom! I hope all is well. I’ve been very fortunate to own some fanstastic bikes for sure. This one is the top tier though imo, as far as a dual sport goes. I do love a good Strat!
 
Ok, this one followed me home and my wife said I can keep it. :-)

Thanks Justin. Looking forward to when it arrives (hopefully within a week or so).

Stay tuned for the for sale ad on the 400......
