KTM Freeride 350

I can't wait until this bike is available in the United States!





http://www.ktm.com/us/freeride/freer...l#.UsU3LvRDsrU

This bike has a headlight, electric starter, 36-inch saddle height, 6-speed transmission, and weighs 219 pounds without fuel. I could easily get a license plate for this motorcycle in Idaho.

I've been sort of waiting on that one myself, Spud.

Fit a rack +/- a larger tank and it would be the ultimate D/S. Capable of anything from sand dunes to tight technical forest trails to 80+ MPH highway speeds.

In short, the perfect Idaho bike:-)

I wonder if they'll consider a factory DS version.

Who cares about D/S?! :P

This year they released a 250cc 2-stroke version:





Damn Christmas lottery tickets win nothing....
