Russ is on a 06 560 ktm track bike, not real legal for the street but he rode it anyway



I am on a 02 ktm 520 with just a black plastic set



I am also riding my 00 R1

ok not to jack your thread up but do they make a street legal version(it looks like yours is) that come like this from the factory? also do honda or yamaha offer bikes like these at all? what are they called if so? and if i may ask....are they as fun to ride as they look? i am lookin to get a new bike and i was thinkin a gsx600 but there is somthing about those things that look really fun. i guess its cause i used to ride dirtbikes all the time.

The 560 can be made street legal, you can but the stuff from ktm to do it, it is just rather expensive.

On my 520 which is an EXC model it comes from the factory all set up for the road all you need is the light kit,


I have raced my ktm 520 on the dirt on the street and on the ice, it is the most verstile motocyle I have ever owned it is also the most fun per dollar spent than anything else.

and to keep things in perspective the 520 ktm is faster at the Gap than the R1
that video was hella cool... glad to see he was ok
Man you guys ride HARD!!! :smilecool :rockon and to top it off you and your family are great and are always there to offer a hand.

Love the wheelies between the twisties, oh you guys are also the ones who really turned me into this love for motards.

Damn that vid was good.

Happy the Honda rider was relatively ok.
