Hey everyone! Rather than spending £££ on tuning up my DRZ with bore kits and stroker cranks, I went out and bought myself a ready made super supermoto.
Shes an '04 660smc with 3800 miles from new and is bone stock.
This is the proper hardcore supermoto of the old KTM range with no ignition key, kickstart only (on the left hand side) and vibrations that make your hands and feet go numb after 15 miles....is character the right word to use here?
With the stock gearing it is nice and torquey through all the gears and cruises at 60/70 surprisingly well, but will lift the front in second and third with just a tug of the bars and throttle if mood takes
The only thing I plan on doing to the bike is spending a few hours with autosol as the polished surfaces are very dull (pictures are deceiving), and nothing else. Even the standard exhaust is quite fruity so I see no point in changing it.
As per usual, C&C are welcome.
