Title: KTM Hybrid in Adelaide
Post by: Tony T on March 21, 2012, 08:12:09 pm

Every once in a while a hybrid comes along that really looks good and seems like a great solution to creating the ultimate bike.

Unfortunately this isn't one of those times............  :-\

I disagree Tony, looks like a great solution to the hand grenading and expensive KTM  ;D

I can't knock it, my trailbike is a 1990 KTM 250 with an XR200 (and soon to be CRF230!) motor.

One of the best hybrids I've seen was a PE400 motor in a '92 RM125 frame. The workmanship was stunning and I reckon it would be a good combo

You seem to have more than your fair share of hybrids up your way Brent.  Didn't I see you advertising a RM400 framed XL500 motor thing a week or so back?

I think your remote location leads to some very inventive people  ;D
