The worlds top riders competing & it appears the Huskies are the fastest bikes in the field. In positions 1, 5, & 10 today. Quite a feat considering KTM's dominance & Honda jumping in with both feet (HRC) Even JC is in this one. Stage 5 results. Could KTM's Rally dynasty be nearing it's end? I believe this is the last shakeup before the big one. I'm really, really looking forward to this upcoming Dakar View: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=c-P-vmhIhQg# !
Thanks for the report Ruffus and ain't nothing nicer than pumkin bustin' ... It must be really cool to whip those bikes on this level of racing for Barreda and the team that surrounds him ... Hear ye, Hear ye ... Long live the TE 449 bike as the worlds top pumkin slayer in this racing !
This is one of the reasons I''m now on this forum. I was totally impressed with the Husky's performance in the Moroc Rallye!
Great results and Dekar coming up quickly! What's the deal with all the ktm machines? Just a bunch of satellite teams? What help does the factory give them guys if any?
Their main factory riders get the platinum plate treatment, other KTM riders have the option of buying just about everything they need from the factory trucks. Any more than that a much more knowledgeable person would have to chime in.
