KLX450R...

[Timpo]

Feck it, I can't wait. BMW 450 Enduro is a mile off.
My trusty DRZ needs replacing, sooner rather than later.
So, I have had a look around for a bike that is not orange (I'm not that good a rider! )
And, what I do like the look of is the Kawasaki KLX450R.
OK, only been quoted one price so far at £5295 so maybe I need to try and shop around, but what a fine looking bike.
I've got a birthday coming soon, so hopefully Sarah Teach will buy this stable mate for her KTM. Holly sh!t, that will be eight bikes in my garage.......
As soon as I have a new bike, me and Timolgra are doing an enduro or two...only thing is Tim don't know it yet!
Anybody else looking at such a green machine?

Mmmmm

Looks nice but hopefully the engine is not in any way related to the kxf MXer.
If it is I would wait a while to make sure they last more than 2 meetings!!

That bike is very much sorted straight out of the factory. Some really nice touches like titanium exhaust header to boot.

Is this the one??

It sounds pretty nice. It sounds like a green version of an orange thing if you know what I mean..lol.

Ohh Timolgra.. have fun on the Enduro. I am sure Forry will gladly video it for you..

Firstly you don't have to be that good a rider to own a KTM but I will say that KTM ownership will make you think you're a better rider than you actually are. A mate of mine who regularly enduros a 300EXC says that when he lines up at the start of a race on his KTM the advantage his bike gives him makes him feel like a cheat

£5295 presumably for a fully road kitted KLX450R sounds a tad steep to me

No it is modified for enduro.

while the ultra-compact and energy efficient LED tail lamp highlights the part of the KLX450R that most other competitors will see. unless there's a Husaberg around
