KTM 525 SMR Supermoto description

To see video of the bike running, please see https://youtu.be/0G90sdeFjIs

I will be adding more pictures to the listing.

I purchased this bike in late 2005 on eBay with hopes of adding lights etc and getting it titled and registered, but this never worked out, first because the wiring harness I bought never would fit, and second I had some life events that ended my riding shortly afterwards. The bike has been in storage ever since. It's more than time to sell now. 

It would not start at first. I found the ohm measurements for the ignition coil to be out of spec and installed new coil. It still is hard to start when cold. Once running it runs great, and starts back up with one kick. I have only ridden a few times in neighborhood due to no plates. Pulls powerfully and running well.

Because of hard cold starting, probably some tune up or adjustment is needed. If I were going to be riding it I'd replace all fluids and might replace chain, there are some rust spots but doesn't appear to affect function.

Tires looked great to me with no weight on the bike even though I didn't add air all this time, but in video I can see the air looks low. Having held as much air as they did all this time, I'm sure they'll hold further air when added now, I just didn't see the issue without my weight on bike.

I don't know how many hours or tanks of gas the previous owner ran the bike, I didn't ask as it was a 2005 bike when I bought later that same year. Engine sounds fine, valve clearance was good (checked it when it was not wanting to start.)

Comes with both black and orange gas tanks, rear fenders, and number plates if you want both, or whichever colors you want.

Buyer responsible for arranging and paying for shipping, or can pick up locally. As is.

Thank you for your interest in the bike.

KTM 1290 Super Duke R Prototype to be Ridden at Goodwood Festival

Wed, 26 Jun 2013

When KTM revealed its 1290 Super Duke R at EICMA, it made it very clear the show bike was a prototype. An actual production version is on its way, as recent spy photos indicate, but the actual prototype displayed at Milan still maintains an aura of mystique. The specs sheet, for example, was intentionally vague.

The North East,Prescott and fast laps with Chris Walker at Mallory

Thu, 26 Apr 2012

A big thanks to all at Newcastle Motorcycles for lending me a Honda CB1000F on Saturday to do nothing other than join mates for a blast round some fantastic roads in the North East. The buddies in question were Alan Smith (Bradley’s dad) and two stroke addict and race fan Chris Berriman. We headed east over the moors from the ‘Toon’ heading towards Barnard Castle then back through Consett before finishing up at the picturesque Tynemouth.

Talk About A Log Jam

Thu, 11 Jul 2013

The Red Bull Romaniacs enduro rallye in Sibiu, Romania is one of the most challenging events on the calendar. It must be, if this Enduro-Cross-style prologue to the four-day race is any indication. Here, we ride along with KTM Factory rider Johnny Walker (definitely one of the coolest names in motorsports) as he makes riding through balance beams, wall rides and a brutal tree stump pit look like child’s play, while the rest of the field wonders why they even bothered getting out of bed that morning.
