I was waiting for that comment... ha ha . I really dont know why people always say that about KTM's . I have owned them my whole life, my first bike was a KTM 50 junior and all the way up to a 300 xcw and never and I do mean never have I had a problem with anyone of them. You do what your supposed to do in maintiance and almost any bike will last. look at my 1997 KDX 220R, I have changed the top in once and that bike will sit in the garage for 6 months and still start in the first 2 kicks. My 1986 ktm 300 still starts everytime.
Most people who say KTM's suck either never have owned one or just heard of people who abuse them and then say there junk. And no you cannot say that a KTM 450 motard breaks down more than a Honda.
Anyone (like me) who has been 2 1/2 hours into the woods when their bike died because of a spark plug right before sunset will say the same thing.. You can never carry enough.
Mine is an older version of this, plenty of room.
