Coming off a 17.5 FE 450. Just picked up a 2020 WER this week. Reading they the 19-20 are pretty close in handling. What can you tell so far between the KTM and Honda. Really interested to hear.

Weekend can’t get hear soon enough. Lol.

BTW- great looking bike!

Jeeezz!! Another Vitard who has not a clue what the true definition of “Spoke with my wallet” means. Once again and please pay attention, buying a shiny new fartbox DOES NOT qualify as “Speaking With Your Wallet”!! That term is reserved for NEW 2 strokes only!!

Nice bike, congrats! Curious what about the KTM you had a hard time getting used to? I assume suspension? How would you compare the motors? I hear that the Honda motor is more lively than the smoother orange bike. Either way, glad that you are happy, enjoy that thing.

Yeah the suspension and steel frame were the main reasons. The motor was very electric and timid feeling.
I also had a very hard time with gearing.

Honda motor is extreme, I’d almost call it violent compared to the ktm motor. I’m jumping this one triple at englishtown from the very inside. On the KTM I could get it from inside at all with out a case. Had to use out side of that helps at all
