At least this one has a knobby tire, because my loading ramp is only 6 ft long, which makes for a pretty steep climb into the toyota! My supermoto with a street tire probably has no chance driving into the back of this truck..
The bike is an 02 KTM 250 2 stroke. I haven't even ridden it except for a couple rips around the yard where I bought it from in Yorkton.

Nice, but the maintenance on the KTMs scares me. How many filters does that one have? _________________ 1991 Mistubishi Pajero TDI JDM RHD 4X4 |

I'm referring to how many KTMs have multiple oil filters and screens. Some of my friends ride KTMs and have complained about that.
Here, I found a vid of an oil change on a KTM. It's a 4-stroke though:

The first few minutes they are just draining the oil and cleaning 2 screens, then at 3:20 it's time to change the 2 oil filters. Makes quite a mess compared to a spin-on! _________________ 1991 Mistubishi Pajero TDI JDM RHD 4X4 |

The 2 stroke is a different animal than a 4 (goes without say I guess). I have heard the ktm 2 stroke is a pretty solid reliable machine. Knock on wood!
Gave it a good test ride yesterday and I love the way it rides. Stable and confidence inspiring, power comes on hard and early!
