Super Motard pros are incredible, getting the hole shot on a dirt start and continuing to go all out on a track that's 60% dirt at a ridiculous pace on street tires is enough said.

yeah dude huskys are nice and priced cheaper then KTM.

BTW.. I saw a duke 690 today at the dealer... wow what A nice looking bike it looked like this:

You would be surprised on how much traction slicks get on the dirt.

Only 3ish weeks away from the next open supermoto practice at Raceway Park followed by race #3 of the ESMRA series.

Only $75 for the practice.

Sick Bike Man!!!!!!!!!!!
Welcome to the KTM brethren! :)

If awesome means checking valves every 3000 miles and replacing your connecting rod (not a typo) every 6250 miles....also not a typo...well then this is your machine. ;)

I agree, but it is no sport tourer. 6250 miles would be a lot for a bike like that.

I know you won't be riding 500+ miles a day on a bike like this but I have a hard time classifying a connecting rod a is a wear part.
