KTM Freeride - 250 R 2-Stroke

[RedSpecialized]

My buddy just bought one. Picks it up middle of Dec.

That is sweet! So when you getting one?

The main KTM dealership here in town just laughed when I called about getting one. Apparently there is already a waiting list with over a hundred people on it. Not sure I believe that, but I think it would be an amazing bike to replace my YZ250.

Finally drinking the orange kool-aid?

My buddy picked his up. He's giddy about how fun it is to ride.

Thought I would give you an update. Two of my buddies have them, they both have over a 1k miles on them. To say they love them is an understatement. They had their suspensions done by Race Tech. Greatly improved the ride. Also both have Rekluse clutches. Just spent 3 days up around Idaho City riding and they are amazing little suckers. They ride them everywhere and love them. They do not have 300 power but they got plenty. Motor is like a sewing machine. No hit just goes. Supposedly the 16's are coming in July. One of them is buying another for his College age kids to ride. One guy in our group is getting the Beta Cross Trainer in a few weeks. Should be interesting to see how it compares. On a side note if you have never rode around Idaho City-Lowman some of the best single track on earth.

Mark, I heading uP there in about an hour to ride in the Idaho City 100. You are right, some of the best riding around and very scenic…once you get out of the pines. :-)
