2015 1/2 KTM 250 Factory Edition with 1994 KTM 550 two stroke
« on: January 07, 2016, 03:58:45 AM »
There is a complete story in the new issue of MXA.  The guy built this and it caught the Prince of Kuwait attention.  Evidently the Prince paid the guy a ton of money for it.  Notice anything different on the picture?



Here's a video:

Maybe the prince will post some video of it.  According to MXA, they smoked a crank seal on it and weren't able to ride it that much. As he was loading it on the trailer, the builder said it was sold (to the Prince) and might not be available for a second ride.  It's a shame, because I'd love to see it go around the track.
