Might be talking hp at the crank which is probably still a stretch.

Figured this was going to be about how the kove 250 is $5999 msrp and the triumph is $9999. This is even dumber.

Clearly, it was measured at the brochure.

Also, 7700 plus shipping and tarrifs which the guy clearly says "witch most people don't understand"... I'm not super familiar with US prices, isn't that getting a little close to proper bike money?

I would really doubt his word on weight and HP if his ability to do math is equal to his ability to write English.

You guys are missing the secret, he clearly posted that he had a witch working on the voodoo magic to make it light/powerful and faster than anything you've seen.

 

Either that or he doesn't know the difference between witch and which, which would make him worse than their preteen social media manager.

Why don’t they go race the MX2 class in Europe like TM and Fantic and whoever else. No homo rules over there 🤣

No. I think he's busy with his new modeling contract. Screenshot 20240212-103638 2.png?VersionId=hF3NIr

Terrible look for Kove as a brand, which is unfortunate because the company was doing well to lend credibility to their efforts with their participation in Dakar, etc.

Can you imagine seeing this from another manufacturer:

That Kove 250f looks fast under Carson Brown... Fast like a supermini or maybe even a 125.

This post is a terrible look for them too.  The grammar/spelling alone is like a 6th grader on TikTok and this person represents a Brand trying to make an impact of some sort??

Wow one hell of a first post. 65 hp and 220lbs. Meaning 17 pounds lighter than their 250F and up 19 HP on it. impressive🤣

Its says right on coves website the 250f is 37.5hp at the wheel. Its very underpowered compared to the other 250fs lol. I think kawi was at 41.6hp in the dirtbike tests

Ohh we know… the Kove USA distributor is the one making the crazy claims. Not Kove themselves. Their own website states 237 lbs dry, he claimed 232 with 1.5 gallons of fuel 🤣

You know that a bike is slow when the uncrowned king of fast looking instagram videos can't manage to make the bike look fast.

Is this guy really an employee or the importer of Kove?  Based on those posts, I assumed they pulled one of the 10 year olds off the assembly line at the sweat shop they build them in to help out with marketing.
