I have been looking at motards for the last few weeks... and all i really have to say out of things that have grown on me starting out as something i thought looked fugly ... Motards are one of the coolest looking bikes now imo they look sick and look like they would be a blast to ride (Me comeing from a MX back ground) Would really like to have one now Anyways Post up some pic's of your motards and hell just any sick motard for that matter!




Ready, Set, GO!!

 

Ill toss pics up when I get out of work. But for now avatar

 

Best motard on the market hands down. KTM 450 SMR. This bike is built from the factory for super moto, not just a japanese dirt bike with motard rims, tires and a big brake kit.

 

lol i thought that was how you built a motard. what makes it special. looks just like the 450sxf

 

Gearing, slipper clutch, less travel in the suspension, Radial mounted front brakes, I sell KTM's and race supermoto. We have built up a couple SX-f 450's and 525's here and they dont even compare to the SMR, the front ends dont grip as well and tend to push more.

 

is the ktm fuel injected?

 

No its not, but KTM says the 2010 are going to be

 

KTM ha! whatever! I had a ktm 560 SMR and it was a ******* pain in the *** to maintain. 2 oil filters, 2 oil screens, valve adjustments every 9 hours, oil change every 9 hours because it only held 1 quart, full gas tank is so ******* small you could only ride it for 30 minutes max then have to fill up. I can go on and on....bottom line-very sick bike and fun but impractical as hell. Don't waste your money on one.

I'd look more into the 690 Street Version of the motard if its more user friendly. SMR's are born and bred to race on a track and thats all.

It was easy to wheelie tho lol:

 

When you going to ride with us again? Almost done with the 636 and working a deal out on a 50 atm

 

I been riding every other day with a ton of peeps over here in Garland! Less driving=more time to ride lol. I wish you fools lived this way then we would link up more.

 

Hmm i wonder how far garland is for me.. I will come ride with yall sometime soon im in the middle of everyone so it works out lol

 

i think i got ur number i'll hit u up when we go out. sundays theres tons of people out there. ur 636 is ready to go right?

 

armenian - how comes, everyone who turns their peak round on MX lids look gangsta as ****, yet when i turn them round on all 5 of my MX lids, not one of them looks cool, so i have to put it back.

 

I have to get my clip ons fliped and the new chain on and it will be... Cant ride this weekend though have to make a road trip to go get a dog

 

drz is fuel injected already

 

I'm pretty sure no one looks cool doing that.

 

As far as I know, the DRZ is still carb'd..

 

It's because it hates your flipped visor.

 

no love for flipped visors!? LOL what about reversed ballcaps LOL

 

Just say no.

Bike looks fun tho. Sad about the maintenance.
