Yeah, people are not getting that KTM/Husky/Gas Gas are really helping to keep dirt bikes, SX , MX, and off-road racing alive. Our sport has really been suffering, with teams going away, deserved riders not getting rides, etc. I truly hope Suzuki doesn't totally go away from SX/MX... with half a dozen tweaks, they would be back in it. From a regular consumer point of view, more choices equals more competition and hopefully overall better prices and service.

Gas Gas would never be doing as well as they are without KTM. The more brands on the gate means more factory rides for the riders. I don't understand all of the hate towards KTM, Husky and Gas Gas. There must be many guys getting smoked every weekend by these great brands.

A few corrections- KTM and GasGas triple clamps are forged. KTM special edition models are billet. All Husqvarna triple clamps are billet. KTM has Brembo brakes/hydraulics. Husqvarna brakes/hydrulics are Magura. GasGas brakes/hydraulics are Braktec. GasGas will have less components and less bling and will be made in Spain where labor costs are said to be less as well.

It’s crazy how expensive dirt bikes are now.

Back in 2005 I sold a 1996 rm 250 that was in like new condition it had many thousands in new parts all top of the line stuff, built motor by a very reputable guy from my area known for doing the best port work but even then they were only going for 1500-2000 max.

KTM was outnumbered in competition by Husaberg. Husaberg was the first light fourstroke. And first with no linkage. Then KTM bought Husaberg and took all the good. Then they take Husaberg of market. Then the Swede dont like KTM. So then they bought Husqvarna and try to make it Swedish again. After they just put the Swedish brand Husaberg down😝 So I will never buy a KTM i life.

Big difference between producing and developing. KTM is actually still spending money on R&D for their 2 strokes. The YZ’s are awesome no doubt but Yamaha could do better. The YZ’s have basically been the same since 06 when they switched to an aluminum frame. Since then they’ve only updated little things like Ti foot pegs, tires, & plastics/graphics. Engine & chassis have been the same for about a decade and a half and the bikes sell for around $8k?!

When will gas gas be available to purchase in the US ? I can’t decide if I should get a YZ250F or a KTM/Husky 350/250f. I raced growing up so I’m leaning towards the 350 to grow into cause I could use the extra power after I get back or close to the speed I had when I stopped racing. I’ll never buy a 450 and push the bike to its limit but I would probably be able to use the power that a 350 brings to the table
