joshdagreat56 Posted February 24, 2005 Report Share Posted February 24, 2005 I'm just wandering if anyone has ever owned a ktm 525, I'm contemplating buying one and was wanting some feedback. The specs on the bike are amazing 520 cc electric start , chrome moly frame. wieghing in at 250 lbs. Please let me know if you have ever rode one or even if you know someone with one let me know if they like it. Anyways thanks ahead of time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ledofthezep Posted February 24, 2005 Report Share Posted February 24, 2005 Nope, but I would love to own one. They haul some ass & are great bikes from what I've seen & heard. Pricey too though, last time I checked they were more expensive than a new yfz450. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that will take a while. The last dirt bike i had was about 2 years ago and it was a xr400. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theeechozen1 Posted February 24, 2005 Report Share Posted February 24, 2005 very nice bikes, my little bros 525exc is like a caddy over the rough shyt at 90+ mph. best advice I have is to take the whole bike apart when you buy it and locktight every piece of hardware you can. He's selling it in AZ for 3500.00 if you are intrested let me know. it's worth alot more than that but he's racing his crf450 more now because of the weight. theeechozen1@yahoo.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
