Close your eyes, look deep in your soul, step outside yourself and let your mind go.
Sounded awfully burly for a 125. Hard to tell online though...That was a 125 in the KTM Millcreek video.

Yea I read it in the video description.
KTM's Alexander Frye takes the vurbmoto GoPro around for a few laps of practice at the 2013 Thor Millcreek Spring Classic... oh yea, on his 125cc machine. He was the only one to jump the triple after the finish on small bore two-stroker. Watch and listen on as he rings it out around the Millcreek facility.
You can tell because it is so slow out of the turns. It has no power. Struggling up those uphills and big jumps too. 250 would have no problem.
yup, one-two-five. kid is railin'
Beta 200RR
+1 railin' like a "superior officer on the starship enterprise" (for KB)
starting to love the sound of a little overrev while the bike is WOT mid-air
thanks for the bump...was trying to find another video the other night but couldn't find a good video

Like a boss................that is played out already!!!
better now?
how about the the open class!
250s were alot in tight woods, scary fast.
I test rode a:
1981 KTM 495
This was the first model year for the Great White. This was also the year that Dirtbike magazine had it flat out at 123.75mph (200km/h) at the El Mirage dry lake.
The 1981 model is known to be the fastest of them all. It didn't have a reed valve intake. A very long intake manifold and a small exhaust volume contributing to the overall power output at high rpm. Due to this setup the engine was capable to overrev without loosing to much power. Beside it was the lightest 495 ever made, this was the reason why this bike could reach this enormous top speed. It was not the strongest 495. One year later KTM added some ponies, but at lower rpm. The head had the twin spark plug. The idea was to get a more complete combustion despite the huge volume. The compression was 14:1.The front fork was a ø38mm conventional Marzocchi unit. The rear shocks was Öhlins or WP piggybacks except the US model that was equipped with FOX air shocks. It had the typical rear fender with number plates. Drum brakes both front and rear. This bike is very rare and the twin shock setup makes it qualified for certain vintage classes and therefore it holds a high value.
the bike did not know I was on it..............
I still love the smell of burnt racing fuel in the morning!

That thing is cool looking! I rode a CR490 when I was 16. That day is burned in my brain. Those bikes hold even less interest for me than a 250! I'm not a fan of overkill.

Only 500cc 2-stroke I've ridden was CR500 motard around Loudon. That thing was pretty fun/crazy when it got on the pipe!
Oh yea.. I pick up my new dirtbike tomorrow....
