Re: KTM 50's

Are you buying it for racing or trail riding.

Great race bike but the Carbs are very finicky, always need to be jetting. Clutches are the same. My nephews both raced them and it was constant work.

My opinion is that they would not be a good trail bike. They are not a bike that works well in slow technical stuff.

Re: KTM 50's

my buddies son has one and can tell you from the one experience riding with his son it over heats ALOT. we had to stop every 15 min for about 5 to 10 min cool down time. quite frustrating
