I am between getting the 630 and the 610. The weight diff is the only hang-up for me. IF I could get the 630 to sub-300lbs I'd pull the trigger. Do-able, without spending a fortune on CF? Thanks, Scott
See my post:- http://www.cafehusky.com/forums/showthread.php?t=13686 If affordable, the 630 will NOT disappoint you. The 610 most likely will.
I ride my '08 SM610 and it doesn't disappoint me at all. I have a Leo Vince slip-on pipe and the Lambda sensor removed and my bike rocks. I'm glad you like your new SM630 - but there are many on here that are more than happy with their SM610's. My bike is absolutely perfect for the roads I ride. See link below for a little video of a KTM following me on the old stagecoach road I ride. Oh, and I got mine new for $6,299. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TfVK47YxtPc
That's my back yard. I live about a mile from that road and ride it every chance I get. It goes over Mount Tamalpais and down to Stinson Beach. Below are two more videos of that day - the first is down to Panoramic Hwy and the second is Panoramic Hwy down to Hwy 1. They aren't as tight as the stagecoach section, but still a lot of fun. We're going from about 2,000 feet down to sea level in the last two videos. I give tours on that road to out of town riders. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=46e9h3Z3Aqo&feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dyxwPSim8CA&feature=related
You're Welcome! I've been giving local riders tours of that road/mountain. I belong to a local motorcycle forum and riders from all over have met me for a ride up there. I'd be happy to take you along.
