Re: I'm thinking about a new playing tool

Do you wanna go offroad or stay on the street?

Re: I'm thinking about a new playing tool

...

I had many, many years ago a KTM 600 LC4 and a Husqvarna 510 TE and a bit later also a Suzuki 1100 GSX-R. (All 3 together )

With a KTM or a Husqvarna, (today more then 70 PS), you have fun between 20 and 120 (on one wheel). (Max Speed somewhere 170).

With the GSX-R you have allways one foot in the jail.

I prefere a bike like the KTM. You sit comfortable, uprigt and the handling is great.

The KTM, (the 1st Picture) is a 2015 Modell, 67 PS. 3000km and it costs 8900.- Sfr. (with some additional things). (A new one, 75 PS for this 135KG Bike would be somewhere around 12'900 Sfr. or so). 

I guess i wouldn't buy a new Husqvarna, the Tacho is a no go, it's so tiny and digital, you can't even see how fast you are driving and the lack of a rotation diameter.

...

There are also SMC  Versions of those bikes, specially for the street.

As example the KTM 690 SMC R, (75PS). They are a different to the Enduro R in many things, except the Motor.

...

But the Husqvarna Svartpilen 401 is also funny. Comfortable, looks nice and it costs not much. But it has only 40 KW, which is in principle enough, but the KTM Enduro R is a Beast and if you sit once on one of them, ... ... 

I would not use them for long rides, mostly very short and short.

On the other side, i would not go into forrest or cross. (Perhaps in my dreams because i used to do that decades ago ).

There are some modells, they are agil like a bicycle, (the KTM EXC-F Modells), but have not that strong Power, but still enough.

...

I saw also a really nice KTM 525 EXC, an older modell from 2004, but it's a nice machine and has also Power. (115Kg originally 61 PS and this one has some spez. Parts mounted), for 4'200.-. (but not much km.)

Re: I'm thinking about a new playing tool

...

Woops, i just saw, that the new 500 Exc has also 65 PS.

You can buy them closed for the little Driving License, (under 25 Years only 35KW allowed for the 1st 2 years) and open for the Normal Driving License. (But also unlimited when you are older then 25 Years). (Possible to switch the power to the limited version).

When i made the license, you had to drive 2 years a 125ccm machine, (but not if you were older then 25 years) No limits in PS.

Today it's different. With 18 Years you can drive max. 35KW, but unlimited cubic capacity.

...

Hmm... so a KTM 350 EXC-F would also be a possibility with its 52 PS for the 103 Kg.

...

The 690 Enduro R would be better if you drive longer distances or let's say 80+ to 120, i guess.

You need a reason for a KTM 690?

Ok, that one is a noob. I drove on one wheel from one village to the next with around 60-100km km/h when i was young

But i guess you see, what i mean. (This is the SMC Version).

I guess i have a little mid life crysis and i dream from good old times

A Husqvarna Svartpilen 401 would be the better choice.

Why not buy this?
https://www.ktm.com/en/e-ride/freeride-e-xc/Overview

This will be a quiet ride and no neighbours will ever throw tomatoes at your windows.

Re: I'm thinking about a new playing tool

Hehe, es i saw it too, but not enough power

Even when i think it's has a huge torque, but no sound.

18 KW is not much for this weight.

Some companies can make you a custom according to your wishes. For extra money of course.

Yeah, but this is a V2, really heavy and it's too big.

I like some agile tool

On the Aparilia site that MadMax gave you there is a menu and "Customize your bike".

Yes, i saw, but it's still a V2.

1 powerfull Zylinder is enough and on the other side 85-110 kg less weight for the Trials.
