I saw that bike when you posted in the klx section...very nice. How would you get parts and stuff in the us for it though? Besides overseas internet orders?

 

Not sure about parts, never really checked since I don't own one. KTM owns Husaberg, though, and I hear they are pushing the brand more so maybe the Husa's will start showing up in more dealers that carry KTMs and they'll make more inroads that way. I get 99% of my KTM parts from Munn Racing linked off KTM Talk - 15% discount on everything. Can get any part I want with just a few clicks - great parts diagrams online make finding parts a breeze. Husaberg parts will probably be similar.

But the only way I'd seriously consider a 'Berg is if they made it street legal off the floor. It's too hard to plate a dirt bike here in NC and even if you do there's no guarantee it will stay that way. Many states are going back and pulling plates issued to DS'd dirt bikes. I need a plate since the trails I ride are scattered around. Bummer.

At least I gots my EXC which ain't too shabby.

 

Not bad... for a mole bike.

 

no not to shabby at all

 

Yea the biggest complaint with the KTM was way too tight supension and handling was horrible. But that was the 2007's

 

What was this review from?

Mike Alessi didn't seem to think it was horrible when he put his KTM 2nd in the National MX series in front of all those Hondas, Suzuki's, and Kawasaki's. Most so-called "reviewers" have an agenda that is directly tied to their advertisers.

 

+1

 

The only problem was the bikes were tested by Agressive riders and put put riders. The aggressives loved it and the put putt retards hated it.

 

well putt putt would hate everything

 

DOOD! amen on the quad! i love my rancher (and no kk not the man rancher) you cant stop the friggin things. i call mine the tankulator, i go "tree hunting" the biggest game ive ever got was at 37mph, it was a 7inch thick white birch. and mud... best buddy. youre lucky though, you got the 4x4. draggin' a 500lb tank out of 3ft of gunk isnt exactly as fun as getting stuck in it.



this was yesterday, all the snow hardend into ice with the rain tues and the **** on the sides and in between the tracks was like a rock, i came over a lil' hill at about 30 and jumped the edge, it started to roll but i lucked out and it shifted back.
