KTM Electric Freeride Bikes

[richardktm]

Any one seen the new freeride bikes from KTM.. I think these slightly smaller bikes are an ideal size to throw around on the tighter trails we have here in China.

It looks like they are doing a 350 petrol and an electric bike which i like alot.

Here's a link to the videos on You Ku, i'm sure there are videos on you tube and other website

Looks good but me thinks you are not going to see one of these bikes any time soon if ever in China.I'd hate to think how much they would cost here they are crazy expensive back in the real world.An expensive bike that is new to the market untested by real consumers.Wouldn't touch it.They have along way to go to catch up to petrol engine KTM's.Much rather a KTM 450exc. An old KTM 640 adventure more suited to China.

That looks like a hell of a lot of fun. Wondering how the weight/power compares to a regular 250 dirtbike though. 209 lbs/29 kw. Main thing is that the power only lasts 60 minutes! http://www.motorcycle-usa.com/666/11...irst-Look.aspx

i love the video of the 350 when it first came out, it sucks how much ktm's are but its nice they actually release videos of there bikes being used not just stating it can do this with a simple picture

Jialing should study what KTM has done in the past 15 years.They have gone from a reasonably obscure motorcycle manufacturer to questionably top 3 offroad motorcycle sales in the world.Their now pushing hard into the road market.

I blew out my knee in Canada at a race in 1999. Since them I have really taken it easy in the dirt. I focus on street riding now. I still have a 525sx for fun though.

CCW is coming out with a super-moto bike this year, and I plan to be the first American to race one in the USA.
