Title: any ideas on year !
Post by: VMX247 on February 27, 2013, 08:02:51 pm

Followed a dirt bike on the back of a ute for quiet some way the other day.
First up we though it was a Yamaha as the colouring was very similer..on closer with speeds of 110+ discovered a KTM

Over 250cc
White guards
Burgundy/maroon seat cover
very small burgundy/maroon KTM emblems on the sides of back mud guard
no other stickers/decals.
No rego
Very nice looking bike.

Hadn't seen one before.
Thanks

Probably cos I'm not a KTM fan, I've never noticed one with this colour seat cover either.  ::)
