[svengalie]

[iBen4G]

I want a 2 stroke :( SHIT.

[walkerkarnstadt57]

whats the diff between sx and xc

[ubastank3131]

@walkerkarnstadt57 xc doesnt have the back suspension linkage, and the transmission usually havs wider ratios

[XxNiCkxx12345Xx]

@walkerkarnstadt57 ones racing and the other isnt the sx models r usually racing ones like green and red sticker bikes , im not sure if im 110percent correct but im preety sure i am

[plow250]

i love on all 4-stroke videos, the top comments are always about how 4-strokes suck, get a two-stroke, they are better..... shut the fuck up already! dont click on a fourstroke vid and complain about em...

[plichhayy1]

do you guys in to the enduro bikes find these even compairable to the wr450 or is it away ahead of the wrs ? thanks guys !

[gehennamaggot666]

[articat225]

hahah :53 panic rev hahah

[R33shaft]

KTM is the best for trail riding, always been that way always will be that way.

[scottymann22]

@R33shaft sorry bro, KTM is the best for enduro like 250exc and 300exc but for trail riding, nothing beats Honda for reliability, KTM are good when they are going but they are always breaking down, having engine trouble ect. The only good trail bike they have is the 400exc

[BLUNTED247ordie]

@scottymann22

You must have fallen off or your handa once to often.

[scottymann22]

@BLUNTED247ordie Yeppp, whatever helps you sleep at night sweetheart ;)

[ssrider7]

[quinton353]

[curriaser]

@quinton353 yamaha and kawasaki are cookie cutter Jap brands... it makes no difference... pick your favorite color!

[R72pulseR72]

[flares4life]

Hey guys. im 13 years old, 5ft tall exact, and 90 ibs. i am looking for a bike that i can race and ride trails with. It looks like the xc is the bike for me i just don't know what model. the xc 105 is more popular and powerful but the xc 85 might be a better bike for my size. i have experience of 7 years on a crf 80 and really learned how to pound it to the ground. I have needed a new bike for some time now and am just wondering which bike is best for me. Give me facts. thanks

[InfamyXD]

@flares4life if you're going for 2 strokes yz 85. 4 strokes the crf150r but keep in mind these are red sticker.

[flares4life]

@InfamyXD ya they are nice bikes but the xc ktms are what i need. whats your opinion on those for me?

[InfamyXD]

@flares4life the 85sx then, i think it's called. But while i have not ridden that particular one i have ridden the 125 model and the yz 125 and truth be told they're both good bikes! only the yz85 is a lot cheaper so you can trick it out with an fmf exhuast and all that good stuff. I myself am hoping to get a CRF250R under my christmas tree :P

[motosaki91]

@InfamyXD im 15 and 140lbs and 5 10 in height i been ridin for 8 years but i still have trouble with what i shuld get i want a good 250f 4 stroke bike whats good 250f bike for racing plz give facts

[InfamyXD]

@motosaki91 well if you in the 2011 range the CRF250R(i believe) is fuel injected so no lag on the throttle but it depends are you a racer or a trail rider? honestly though suzuki, honda, yamaha, kawasaki are all amazing bikes and its kinda true that at the end of the day it comes down to your favorite color

[motosaki91]

@InfamyXD ima racer

[AJsfree2toke]

@mamajama779 No limits brah...GO for it!!

[CelisXD]

ktm = enduro

[philippeabluntmon]

man, looks like a really good bike, but that orange shit is 10 years late

[SchuyTV]

is KTM the only 2 stroke manufacturer?

[tylernes54]

@SchuyTV nope Yamaha still makes their YZ

[mad87645]

@SchuyTV yamaha, gas gas, husky, TM, suzuki (only for europe) and sherco (trials)

[bradlerd123]

good in it

[warboy1psn]

my rmz 250 is very easy to start any time, hot or cold. mostly 1 kick

[asatramk]

@warboy1psn i have a rmz250 -08 its always 1 or 2 kicks then it starts its so easy

[warboy1psn]

@asatramk , yeah they really are amazing bikes. do you ride/race at the track?

[O87y]

Like it but some helmet cam shot would be nice.

[MrTodor9]

cool

[MrTodor9]

cool



[gilessmokey]

finally gets a suspension linkage for next year. about time too.

[pyurhhi]

My crf250r is hard to start too Dude, after it gets hot, Good luck gettin it started.

[dutchkealan]

@pyurhhi lol my yamaha is hard to start when its cold...but when you have it warmed up...omg dude one kick is all it takes then its off..bikes a beast

03 yz250f

[Mr100percentfresh]

my ktm doesnt have a problem but my buddies kx-f 250 always has hot start problems if he runs it hard for a couple hours in the bush and then shuts it off it takes quite a few kicks. mines 2 stroke she starts in one kick even if its been sitting all winter

[1994PF]

Honda is better

[rubinmeneps]

ssssswwwwwwwwweeeeeeeeettttt. anyone have the weight of one of these?

[1cartwomany]

that looks like some awesome riding, completely different than what I'm used to being in the southeast.

[vipdanny]

can someone tell me the difference between the SX and the XC-W please. they both look the same..

[Mr100percentfresh]

@vipdanny different size fuel tanks and xc-w doesnt have kickstart electric only

[vipdanny]

@Mr100percentfresh thanks. electric start only, how silly

[Mr100percentfresh]

@vipdanny im sorry. i meant the sx-f only has electric start.. they did that because in a race its quicker to just fire it up and go kick starting takes to long especially witha 4 stroke and hot starts are especially hard. only problem is if the battery ever dies your screwed but ktm puts a pretty good battery in there just gota keep it charged over the winter

[Slipdirtbiker]

@Mr100percentfresh ive never found hot starts are hard...??? where do you get THAT idea? if any start is hard its a COLD start.

[lentilsouper]

That looks fun.

[camclutch195]

They dont have a very good rider at all.

[Slipdirtbiker]

@camclutch195 shut the fuck up hes better than you'll ever be apparently you dont know what a good rider is you fucktard piece of shit.

[camclutch195]

@Slipdirtbiker yeah, your cool. I bet money your 13 or under. probably havent even sat on a 250 before. so, you can get off my dick and go argue with someone else over the internet.

[Slipdirtbiker]

@camclutch195 ok, #1, thanks, #2 im 15 #3 i ride a 450 #4 im not gay and # 5 im not a nerd, like yourself :) good day to you

[camclutch195]

@Slipdirtbiker aha ohh your cool. you cant even come up with a comeback. queer.

[camclutch195]

@Slipdirtbiker your like mentally retarded, all the guy does is go in a straight line over some small ass rocks.

[tnard200]

i have a kickstand but i tightened the bolt so much i can hardly move it

[pguard81]

Bajaj Power!

[McDragonCZECH]

you cunt ..! KTM as hell ... yeah

[sammysark]

I HATE KICKSTANDS!

[surfsup1552]

they dont look that nice.....

[mtbxcfreak]

this bike is really in need of a a headlight

[Fdgod985]

@mtbxcfreak u cud always by 1

[mtbxcfreak]

@Fdgod985 i agree but the bike should come with one

[kamper12ful]

BABCIA?

[ItsMRMONEY]

nice bike

[lightersknivesguns]

Long live the 2 strokes! i ride a 2000 yamaha yz 125. 35bph and a power to weight ratio greater than a 747. one of the best bikes ever built.

[maxwellhouse07]

8 year old rider, 9 year old camera boy, 7 year old montage maker

[martinduenas]

es una bicicleta, con 60 hp

[RM125rider93]

whats the difference between the xc-w and the sx-f?

[ChickenPoPicken]

kx is beater

[aaronpwnz1]

sounds like a lawn mower

2 stroke!!

[danzman69]

@aaronpwnz1 2 stroke sounds much better

[TheMasterMarine]

great bike but i prefer the 525.  =D

[1910norbi]

Ready to race

[frkykn]

Ktm for life

[rockincdog98]

im only 11 and i ride a quad with a crf 50cc motor bored out to 125cc

[fordgtx193]

@rockincdog98 lol u are so full of shit little kid. wow u ride a pissy little 50 cc 4 stroke for 5 year olds, good luck with your quad that has been bored out 2 1/2 times its original size

[adrenalinjunkie1000]

[morvorify]

will be buying a ktm in late summer or autumn. a supermoto tho :)

And a used one, cuz new ones cost to fucking much :P

[ChrissibabyUK]

YEEEHA! That's what fuel is made for: KTM - greetings from the UK

[Trey002]

i,wonder,how,this,would,do,on,­a,motocross,track

[mxracer334ky]

[frozenskipper]

@mxracer334ky how?

[Vanek12211]

Yamaha yz 250 на 0:33 на заднем фоне?

[ifwincs]

kurva jo!

[desert07576]

KTM,s the best! have an 04 honda450r and ktm 525xc-w, love them both, but cant beat the ktm feeling ! race ready! And my ktm only cost 800 dollars more than the honda and it make it up in the black excel rims, brembo brake, renthal fat bar!need i go on ! oversize wave rotors,6 speed gear box,electric start,light up speedo!list goes on.

[Physikpen]

KTN=KOST TO MUCH!!

[masakari01]

@Gizmorun Kwakers (spelt a little differently I know) is slang for Kawasaki where I'm from too. Crazy idea I know, but it's *just* possible that one thing can have two slang associations...

[AlexTugaCross]

I got a bike too, a 250, but KTM is really amazing ! It's a monster OMG :)

[irockoutlouder1]

ktm signifies no skill and douchbaggery

[1234kade2]

ktms are retarted  my cousin has one and it is in the shop right now with a leakey ceal

[Boggle122333]

@1234kade2 great bikes but "Know Thy Maintenance" (KTM) lol

[WeThreeFriendz]

Are KTM good or Honda's better?

[draggonboy00]

@WeThreeFriendz

KTM is always amazing me i both have a honda and KTM. the honda seems more of a panzy although its tork is sweet for off road. KTM seems more of a racer its all what you perfer. if your going to race you might want to look into KTM, if its just for trails you might want a honda

[sdemp321]

@WeThreeFriendz HONDA IS WAY BETTER!!!!! GET A HONDA GET A HONDA GET A HONDA!!!

[2strokemadness357]

@WeThreeFriendz KTM A MILLION TIMES BETTER

[mqpz123456789]

Don't fucking swear

[1234kade2]

Btw

[scaramana]

[thecatch41]

i have a kx 858 and dirt bike 250 and i has 13years old

[groleauandrew]

and your grammar sucks ass

[12fatbaby]

@groleauandrew agreed.

[SgtBaker0707]

yeah fucking poser. learn english

[BEN80155]

if only ktm put a rear linkage on all their models and not just the 350cc and they would be perfect

[shutenpituten]

@BEN80155 - what is a rear linkage ??

[mudrider250f]

i have a ktm 200 exc 2stroke and a yz250f 4stroke. i cant choose between them

[k403052]

choose the 1 that is faster

[BinBeukers]

@mudrider250f 200exc

if u stall you wont be there for an hour trying to start it

[getrcgepc]

450 is a more brutal.

[guitarman1067]

i drive a kawasaki kx250f i like it

[johndeere3650turbo]

fajny spręt

[TheBedfordboyz]

looked gd and knary love the rocks .

[TravEye9]

You guys are a Bunch of Tools

[bulldog01209]

@TravEye9 Why is it every smartass negative remark is made by useless no talent fucktards who live their lives on the internet. Have you twatbanes ever been on a motorcycle if so please post your super awesome video because based on the videos you have posted you are less useful then a broken condom.

There is nothing wrong with this video and all you useless bastards making snarky remarks have no idea what you are looking at or what it takes to ride like this. go back to smoking weed n jerkinit

[lolhooft]

whaaaa 125cc noob cheap pitbike? we love ktm(L)

[earrake]

THATS YOUR PROBLEM..

[ThenameDojjan]

i dirve suzuki rm 125 cc 2007

[Joesmx5]

massive air in woods!!!! check it out! surrey moto x

[euckilla]

Kawakers? That's common slang? News to me. I thought it was Kawi's.

[sonicthebadger]

I suppose it depends on the accent. In an Irish accent Kawi's would sound indistinct because of the soft A but in a Kiwi accent Kawi would be perfectly audiable as they stretch the A.

[kostazo]

Hi all i am thinking of buying a ktm i was thiking a 250 but a mate told me i would want more power and be over it pretty soon what should i do go the bigger bike like a 450???

[ktm85sxguy]

250 have more power thre 2 stroke

[sonicthebadger]

Would he be biased perchance? Fan of Kwakers is he?

[Cody0148]

kwakers???? dude im 13 and you are like 20 something dude grow up

[sonicthebadger]

Kawasaki- i.e. Kawakers. Why are you telling me to grow up? What does you being 13 and me being 20 something have to do with you not knowing commonly used slang for the bikes you claim your father sells? Try to stay on topic.

[Gizmorun]

,,,no sorry mate its not kawakers...that is plainly reterded...

[sonicthebadger]

What's not kawakers? We're not talking about the video yeah? We're just talking about slang.

[Gizmorun]

kawakers is not slang for kawasaki...
