Im looking at buying a new dirt bike! I have decided upon 4 stroke but now im looking at brands! Everyone always tells me to buy ktm and everyone in the uk seems to be on ktm. Are they really that good? Ive also heard a lot of people say They are unreliable. Watching pros ride most seem to be on kawasaki! Surely if ktms were so go good all pros would ride them but i dont see many pro fmx/sx/mx riders on them! Thanks for the help.
EDIT. Although electric start would be nice.

Pick a color, it really does not matter anymore. Yamaha's are the goofiest feeling, but some love them.
Concerning 450s I would test ride some before I put the cash down. To me they are all very different in the way they feel as well as how the weight is distributed and the power totally exacerbates any type of quirk you might feel in the geometry or the ergo package.
I would have no problem asking someone at the track to let me ride a few laps for $20 - $30.
i like Honda because of influence from my dad.
Most people follow trends and see something popular, winning and cool. this means they buy it.

RIDE RED BRO!
I weigh 70kg (145 pounds isch?), race the swedish nationals,and this kept happening...
Seriously our jumps here in sweden are smaller than the ones at palas vet track, so i litterally havent got a clue how my clusterfuck of a fork kept doing this.
Sold the bike after 40 hours, and somewhat of 30 fork-breakdowns...
So both him and a company that specializes in suspension tried but couldnt get it fixed, and after a couple of breakdowns the fork was thrashed inside, actually dont know what they did to be able to sell it, but i havent heard anything from the buyer, yet...
