lilmegill727 Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 well i'm, 6'4 . so anything to me fits "small" LOL. my YFZ don't fit me much better. hell even my banshee feels small to me LOL. BUT the KTM has a feel of almost sitting on top of it, while the YFZ has more of a down in the cockpit feel if you know what i mean. I always add a taller stem and a higher bend bars to all my quads. and the ktm has adjustable stem from the factory so you can either make the bars closer to you or farther away, a really nice feature. The KTM is really nice once you get used to it, it has gobs of low end torque. Now this is based on the 525 model I raced, i never rode the 450 version. yeah i rode that same bike and the low end on it is crazy. awesome bike overall. but i have to agree the bars are low. we didnt mess with the stem or the bars though. but at the stock position they felt pretty low for me too(im 5'6) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mofoka Posted August 17, 2009 Report Share Posted August 17, 2009 I lifted a KTM's rear end the other day it was so damn light. As soon as I can afford an KTM IRS XC I'll get it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angel ripper Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 (edited) KTM don't make a IRS quad maybe you're thinking of the polaris outlaw, or honda 700xx Edited August 18, 2009 by Angel ripper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mofoka Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 Yes, I was thinking about the outlaw IRS... looks very similar. But it was the KTM XC that I was jumping on and picked up... very light. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RadarRacing Posted August 19, 2009 Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 Mikebell has a sickazz TURBO 525XC on E85 that makes 101hp at 15psi. His 600 is a runner too but I'm 6'2" and I can't stand the low bars on them, I also think the footbrake is too far to the left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
