'06 KTM 450 SMR. Ready to race!

[Puppet]

I absolutely love this bike and it's kind of breaking my heart to do this...but I'm not riding it much and I want to make room for a dirt bike.

2006 KTM 450 SMR
This is the 'from the factory' supermoto race bike.
I'm the original owner with MSO in hand.

This is not currently street legal. I've never looked into how to do it and don't have any desire to, so please don't ask

Some of you have ridden this and know it's well set up. It took me to 20 flat at Loudon when I was racing and there was more to be had. It's definitely teens ready for the right rider.

43hrs on the meter. Top end and suspension were refreshed at the 35 hr mark. All riding since then has been sporadic track day sessions while working with Tony's
Fairly fresh Pirelli slicks. Lots of life left
Crank polished/welded/balanced
16.5" front wheel
Tri-Star 10mm triples (can't get them anymore)
Scott's steering damper
Barkbusters hand guards with sliders
SME axle sliders front/rear
KTM peg sliders
Brembo 4 pad caliper with Ferodo pads (awesome stopping power!)
Brembo radial master cylinder with lever
Short clutch lever
Hot start lever on bars
SX pipe and dyno tuned/jetted appropriately (stock comes with the EXC pipe)
Oil changed every track day or race weekend. Filters every other oil change.
17" spare rain wheels/tires
Other spares I'm surely forgetting.

Asking $4500 obo.
Will entertain trades for the right woods bike (looking for a 250), but I have my eye on one locally if/ when this sells.

Bike is currently in the DC area. I'll be at a bunch of TTDs throughout the season starting with the NY double dates in May. I'll be up in the PA Area in the next few weeks as well, so can definitely arrange to get the bike north

I'll take some additional pictures in the next day or two.

THIS IS A STEAL

I like the KTM 450 lineup a lot. That is what I would race if I didn't race a TZ. It is a rather sensible selection.

Braaaaapp! Haven't ridden it since NYST in June. Fired up on the third kick last night!

Forgot to mention the G2 1/4 turn throttle in the first post.

Post race weekend bump! Who wants to add some more classes to their program?

The pictures are as the bike sits now. Taken on Friday.

Monday morning bump

Heading to NYST this weekend. Happy to throw it in the trailer if someone wants to take a look

Bumping this back to the top. Haven't really put any effort into selling, but moving back cross country this summer and wouldn't object to some extra cash and trailer space.

Rode it a few wet TTD sessions in CT this past summer. Otherwise it's just been looking pretty in the garage. Someone take this racing and use it for what it was designed!!!

[Puppet]

Season is coming up. Can bring to early season TTD events.

You know, I'd love to, I am very tempted. But I am a short guy so motards always intimidated me, and with two mouths to feed already, taking on a third would be a bad idea. Good luck man!

PMed you.

Let's see if we can alleviate these concerns

It's lower than a regular dirtbike. It only weighs 250 lbs so you can hold the damn thing on its ear with one leg no problem! It's so well set-up that it practically balances itself . Since it's a trackbike you really only have to worry about it until you get rolling on hot pit. It's not like you're trying to put feet down at a stoplight.

As far as costs.... Tires will last you at least a season, if not more, depending on your pace. It only takes a liter of oil. Brake pads last for years! It could prob use a new chain, but that'll last for years as well. Keep up on the oil changes and this "mouth" doesn't require much.

How's that? Ready to do a deal?!

Oh... If my bank account was in better shape..

Charge sav more.



Also: this is an rfs, the easiest ktm 4t to do routine maintenance on. And it's set up PROPER.

Also have Pit Bull trailer restraint pins, milled slightly by Pit Bull, to fit with the SME axle block sliders. Will throw the pin kit in to sweeten the deal

Buuuuuuump

Will be at the Thompson TTD in a week and a half. Can bring it with

What would be the right 250 woods bike?

[Puppet]

I should probably go back and edit the first post. I'm moving cross country this summer, so I'd rather sell outright and open the trailer space. Will probably go to find a race effort in the future.

[Puppet]

Bike is with me at Thompson for the TTD event for the next two days. Come make me an offer. Braaap!

Bumping before Palmer this weekend.
