The only thing theyre doing wrong is commanding a HEFTY price tag on a bike that everyone is unsure of. Lots of people would like to try one but why spend 10,000+ when you can buy a more than proven Japanese bike and save 2k? I have only seen one in person and we live in a very motocross driven area, plus travel the entire GNCC circuit.
What does their enduro bike have that's different from their moto bike? I couldn't find much info
Hey. Wait a second…
Were we just called stupid? 🤣
Well, I…for one…hope it’s a 6 speed! 💪🏻

thats because they dont have an enduro bike yet. Walker is riding a tf250x set up for enduro
There it is.
Not certain, but Red Bull bankrolls KTM's road racing. I also this they are still profitable, just not to the same extant.
Seemed pretty ready to me on Saturday
I think it was Roadracing world or crash.net that said KTM does the development on the MotoGP side and Redbull pays to go racing. It's definitely going to be interesting on all racing fronts with the Austrian group going forward. They almost took it to Ducati last week so they are getting there on the pavement.
As for all the guys hating on my take. You're literally confirming what I said. Not saying Ferry was a big loss to the team as far as his talent and results go. And Savatgy left because of the 450 problem. He was lied to by Triumph on time frame for the 450. They're not technically undisclosed reasons, but we'll never know the true story for both riders for a few years. Savatgy could have easily ran the 250 in 450SX. Its not a disadvantage in SX. On paper 2 multi-year contracted guys left their contracts early, Not a good look. Bikes failing multiple times during Motocross. Probably rider error, but still a problem for USA only?..
Can you please show us a KTM with an Aluminum frame and KYB Suspension....I'll wait.
See above...the Bike with a #4 on it...
That's a Triumph.
But since you are clearly the smartest guy in the room on this, please let me know exactly what parts on that bike are from a KTM. Be specific and complete. You've spouted off multiple times about this and always claim to be the smartest guy in the room so don't shy away from proving it.
If you can't provide this, then man up and admit you have been just running your mouth and don't actually have a clue.
Balls in your court dawg....we wait.
They were in a must situation.
Kinda strange for him to constantly mouth off about it being a black KTM when KTM parts won’t bolt on to it. I guess they did such a poor job and making a KTM that it no longer is one😉
They started the design with the footrests...
I've ridden KTM's for nearly 20 years plus and now have a Triumph.
It is not even a KTM. For all the obvous reasons and it has been stated previously that most motors are functioning very similar. Why re-invent the wheel.
He can't really have the high number of ridiculously bad opinions that he posts here.
Seems he just enjoys posting things that he thinks will irritate folks. Troll with nothing better to do than to think up oddball / irritating stuff to post.
Pit Row
Is the 250 really priced 2k higher than the japanese bikes?
He really is that stupid!!!!
No lol
Never once have I stated I'm the "smartest guy in the room". You've clearly assumed that. I might be one of the bigger smartasses... But We all know KTM Group and Triumph have mutual investors and companies that work together. Christ just look at the bike. Nearly everything is a carbon copy of a KTM.. I don't need to justify my thoughts on the similarity, its literally right in front of you. Gonna be really funny when all the aftermarket exhaust systems come out and add TF250X to the same part number as 250SXF, FC250, MC250...
"Nearly everything is a carbon copy"
Like what?
Should be pretty easy to list a few things if that's the case....
Is the frame a carbon copy?
The body work?
The suspension?
The swing arm?
The triple clamps?
The air box?
The subframe?
In the Johny Walker video on his YouTube he mentioned riding it and how great it was. I dont know much about it at all other then it is not the same bike so I guess its going to be similar to the WR and YZF setup where they are similar but not the same bikes with just different maps and wheels and a light
Are there any pics of Forkner’s bike?
And a 3.5 or 4 gallon fuel tank!
IMO This has been in the design process for roughly 3-5 years before they even approached the Goat to sign on with a bike to test.
They took all the 450’s designs and took all of their best things to start aiming for final designs product that met them all.
They just dont have the 450 production ready for the 2025 seasons start. Will they launch it next year probably. They will probably have on at the MC Industry’s trade show AIMExpo next February just like they did with the 250
By having no pride, no creativity and copying.
Not worse than that ugly CRF knockoff looking Ducati.
Neither of them have one bit of brand personality, which is a shame for brands who have real original and unique road bikes.

Two things, the duc motor is different than anything else running.
Also, even though I view the aprillia mx450 as amazing, going against the grain didn't work with that bike.
