  That would be the best addition to his bike, a flying "M" next to a new ignition of course

nice!...there's nothing like the sound of a 500 on the pipe tearin off into the distance.

Oh man, he says he will race it this coming year, maybe the japs wont follow but i think KTM may have an open ear to bring some big bore back maybe? maybe a 550 in a left over frame?

Here is a good article by my buddy Chilly White......

A few of the facts in this article point to the factory being afraid of a motorcycle designed in 1988 making their newer stuff look bad......hahahaha.

I met chillt white at the kurt casellie memorial ride at glen helen last weekend, he was a real down to earth fun guy to talk to, gave me lots of info on the ktm rally bike and had me thinking for hours after. I've been meaning to throw a write up on the ride, haven't got the time yet though.
