A KTM 530 with a Rekluse.

Bit like an off-road Vespa on steroids. Go for it !

Maybe you could Pm me a price, never had one with a Rekluse

PM sent , a 530 with an auto clutch...an unstoppable force of nature I reckon.

Blimey............... this thing is a bit lairy

Good fun in 3rd gear though :D

1st and 2nd are redundant.... due to wheelspin :mrgreen: :roll:

In 4th gear............... the horizon comes towards you at an alarming rate - wowee :lol:

Too scared to use 5th and 6th...........yet :shock:

Impressive

Did I mention wheelies too? ...........open the throttle on those hard packed lanes and she's up in the air in #3rd and #4th gear

Wonder how much HP they chuck out ?

It's very exciting, Bob

Makes the DR350/DRZ/XR400 seem very pedestrian ..............in comparison

Same trails, different bike

That's a bit civilised JB, it's even got indicators!

Yes my 450 had a bit of go so I'd imagine the newer 530 would be more of the same.

Great bikes, superb at just lugging along on the torque but you do have to recalibrate the brain because when the red mist decends it gets very blurry very quickly.
Open your eyes and you see what is in front of you, open your mind and you see a bigger picture but open your heart and you see a whole new World.
