Up for your consideration :
My beloved first KTM. I've had it for about 5 years. Havent used it since Moab last April. Connected the battery and fuel. Started right up. Have to adjust to a bit for our elevation. I'll be doing that this weekend.
This bike taught me how to ride. With its great linear power it rescued me when I was a novice and got me thru alot of trails way above my pay grade.
It's done Emma Long too many times to count ( I live by it and ride straight there. Street legal !! )
It's done all the regional riding areas around Austin. Hidden Falls, CTOR, Red River, Barnwell, all the ranch areas near Bastrop, SHNF

. It's been to CO, NM, NC, UT. It's a perfect bike for Big Bend and it's been there a few times. I've camped a week off of it in CO. It never made it to Mexico, but I would of if life didn't get in the way. Very dependable year for these bikes. Has around 140 hrs.

I have a trail set up and an enduro set up.
Soft tall seat and low trail seat.
Lots of spare parts.
Bought extra wheels for it just in case but never needed them.
It has an extra ECU still in the box.
JD carburator kit
Shorai battery
Skid plate.
Disk guards front and back.
Cell phone holder.
Aftermarket trail computer. It tells you an incredible amount of information
Radiator fan. Radiator braces.
812 suspension with upgraded suspension from 2014 bike. Allan's race bike was the donor. Right place and right time.
Large and small gas tanks.
Repair manual. Valves checked twice, never needed adjustment.
Aftermarket hand guards with mirror.
I know I have a rack for the rear fender. I have to look for it.
Extra brake pads.
I'll throw in the tank bag too.

Reason for selling, I've found myself doing more hard enduro and use a lighter bike. Life doesn't let me do big trips as often as I used to.

I'll start putting pictures in. Might add some from our trips. Writing this is making me go thru memory lane.

Someone is going to get a great bike that has everything.

I can meet you at Emna Long for a ride around if you want or you can test it around my neighborhood.
If it doesn't sell by mid June I'll take it to Colorado and do a last ride and sell it there.

PM me for any questions. Guys that have seen this bike around feel free to chime in.

This bike can do it all. The limiting factor is the rider.

I'll let it sit here for a while and then out it on craigslist 🤮. I can meet halfway to Houston, Dallas if serious.
 
Hey Vinny, I'll pass this along to a friend who's looking to get into DS riding with me
 
Great bike, should disappear pretty quick for you!
 
I hope it goes to a fellow TWT so I can see it out there occasionally.
 
Good luck with the sale Vinny. I have 2 RFS bikes already or I would be all over this.
 
If you want to sell the spare wheelset, i might be interested if the price is right.

I have a couple of low ball offers. Talking to a guy about not selling the ECU and wheels with it. I'll let you know.
 
Found a picture with the rear rack. I know it's in my garage .....somewhere.
