i came off a ktm 525 that was very trick and very fast. A few years ago i saw the husky tc and thought it looked great but was afraid it would suck, well 3 months ago i just went out and bought one and i am so so so so so stoked with it and im not just saying that cuz i bought one, if it sucked i would say so but it is awsome
Very nice... I have had the opportunity to ride two very well set up KTM 525's ....an 07 and an 08.... I'll take my TC450 over either one... they just don't feel right to me... T
Nice to hear ascot and I especially like your comment that if it sucked I would say so. What year was your 525? and what is it about the husky that makes it better? I am just thinking on my own account the few 525's I have ridden, I loved the motor but did not feel safe with the front end.
heh.. just noticed that this is in the Have You Seen forum where it explains how to use the new forum software.. I'll move it over to the Main forum..
I ride with KTMs a lot. If you look at their rear wheel you will notice that they kick a lot in ruts etc. The kick is usually with a left or right bias not just up or down. The feel is not brilliant when you first ride them. I believe the lack of a linkage is directly attributable to this. Also the two stokes are more inclined to kick than the 4 burners-might be weight related.
