    People talk about KTM reliability being suspect. But their Motocross bikes have been bullet proof for me. This bike should impress. With this bike I agree KTM is back.

    I did a bit of supermoto racing in the mid 00' [on a 250c] and for me personally I found foot out MX style to give tighter lines and more front end feedback around corners than roadracing style kneedown. But smooth riding in the video and it definitely made me miss those days. Good review, thank you!

    • @JoshuaTootell
      @JoshuaTootell 3 года назад

      A while back a couple SM guys showed up to our minimoto race to goof off. One of the 150r riders happened to have his 450 SM with him. He used to race MX, but converted to knee down instead of foot out.
      It was less flashy for sure, but even down on power he was killing the SM guys who came out.
      Reinforces that there isn't a wrong way, just your way. The foot out style did make it far harder to make a pass, the knee down guy had to be far more aggressive than normal on his passes but carried more corner speed. He was down on HP so he got passed on the straight every lap (Grange in Apple Valley).

    Track time on a bike like this is a blast, unfortunately not street legal to enjoy the thrill there. My modded DR650 is nowhere in this league but its still a blast to attack tight, twisty chewed up back roads on it. Light makes right and power to weight ratio equals fun.
