if it's anything like any of they're other bikes......it'll be fast as feck, but.....it'll turn like a dumptruck.

Nice looking machine though

After lots of suspension mods and a set of triple clamps, my KTM124SX handled awsome. Yes, KTMs are always some of the fastest bikes.

It tops out at only 174. That's not fast enough

you know, KTM stands for "Keep the Motor" because that's just about all that's good on them.

My KTM was the best bike I ever owned or raced.:thumb:

Everyone I've talked to has liked KTM.

well, what they lack in handling: I guess they make up for in raw powah.

I rode both a 2004 125SX and a 2003 CR125R. The CR would turn circles around that KTM...it was sad. But, the KTM would walk it in the straights.
