how reliable are ktm´s in long term? i usd to have a bmw gs and im thinking about buying a ktm

[onewheeldrive]

@poiovissa These were test bikes on loan from the companies, so we didn't have them much longer than the duration of the ride.  That makes it hard to gauge long term reliability. The KTM showed the least wear and tear of the three bikes, due to build quality. The main problem with the KTM is a waterpump seal that goes around 20,000km. Other than that solid. There's a full written review of all three bikes on our site: OneWheelDrive(dot)Net

Nice vid , but your style of humor isn't funny

[onewheeldrive]

@dawesxm Well, plenty of other videos for you to watch on YouTube then. No need to be rude or negative. Off with you.

Doing very well thanks. Right now kitting out two Honda Varaderos for a bit of light Baja Adventure.

Cheers,

Did this ride in July 1999 on my 1977 BMW R100/7 with no breakdowns. Then on to Prudhoe Bay before returning to Oklahoma. Glad to see other people doing this!
