The Shop
You want a smoker? KTM makes some of the best ones ever made, go buy it. Living in the past all the damn time with some manufacture color that holds a special place in your heart. Give me a break. Other than Alta shutting down, there is any flavor of bike out there for you to purchase, enjoy and suck wind on in 1 lap. R&D your life together.
Although it seems you may just be a waste of air in general after that gem.
I really hope they keep putting all the effort they are putting now. It's true that Suzuki is not putting real effort from years, so it may be a isolated case.
Anyway, i see in the future the japanese going back and Ktm selling each year more bikes.
I have always been a japanese guy, but my next bike is going to be a Ktm 99%.
The younger generation wants electric vehicles (...and have little interest in dirt bikes at all). The younger generation refer to ICE performance cars as "smokers" (nevermind that we lovingly refer to 2 strokes as smokers)...for them it's not a term of endearment.
The suzuki they “updated” was the worst of the bikes since it came out. I am aware there are some upgrades that can be done to make it good, but has suzuki made any of those changes to the bike since then? Nah not really. And once you make those upgrades to have the bike as good as the others, how much money have you actually spent on a bike that will still weigh more with a kickstart.
Every suzuki thread past champs get brought up and I literally have no clue why. “The current suzuki they keep putting out sucks” “but but but if it sucks then how did Ricky win on a suzuki”. Lmao shut up
Pit Row
And even in the middle of nowhere noise concerns are a thing. A 450 bouncing off the rev limiter is LOUD and it travels far. Need several thousand acres to effectively not worry about neighbors bitching. Which BTW, in rural America. Pissed off neighbors arent inclined to call the police. They'll just burn your shit down in the middle of the night.
Pretty sure this is Alex Ray ripping this Rm125...I mean who wouldn’t buy this?
Not one time have you heard me bring up those names who have raced the rmz450 professionally, nor will you. Those guys can make any bike great! The bike doesn’t suck though.
Post of the week.
Production sales fund R&D. Low sale volumes = less overall R&D spend.
So, two options
1) they are trimming overhead expense to free up money to maintain (& potentially increase) R&D in other areas
2) Profits are worse than what we believe and they are cutting expenses to DECREASE overall R&D spend
