......Kawasaki?

With all the big dogs of KTM getting hurt seems like they have picked up where Kawasaki left off!

A quick look at your location and I'm really confused. You see, here in the states, we have these 2 guys that ride for KTM. MM25 and RD5. They seem to be doing ok. Now, across the pond they've got AC222 and Herlings hurt. But you're from TX so I'm confused.

maybe starting with a team of 4 might get 1 rider through the season unhurt these days.

My point is all of the brands have injured riders almost all of the time and currently, KTM still has multiple top dogs "in the fight" even with their injuries. Is Honda the next Kawi? Tomac/Canard/Seely. It happens to every brand, it's the nature of the sport unfortunately.

We've raced then. I'm a little disappointed you didn't drop my name.

Those FE's are too light.. Dangerous I say. They'd be much safer on Bob Hannah's ol' "Tub O Shit" 81 OW.

id say no. they need to find a way to sell there big bikes to the public.when I say that I mean the mx racing guys. they pretty much own the mini market but I still don't see many racing locally on big bikes other than 2 stroke stuff.when Kawasaki is selling 15 kx250fs for 5500 otd in july you cant compete with that

Come to the US, purchase, disassemble, ship some stuff home, drive back with the remainder of parts.
Reassemble. Ride. Be happy. You're welcome. Laughing

My grandma broke her coccyx riding a KTM too. She was at the dunes. Now she can barely get off the couch and go out and feed Tina, gahhh!
