    06 Husky smr 510 vs 06 Ktm smc 625

    Was thinking of going the klr route for awhile, commuting so on.. I found these two for decent money. can these be a daily rider, commute to work bike? i know there more expensive to maintain and that's ok but i don't want to worry about popping a motor. ktm almost 7000 miles. husky a little over 2000.

    Witch one would be better overall for those who know?

    Can't find a husky 610 or that would be in the mix as well.

    Think the 610 got a redesign and cc bump. Maybe hard to sell leftover 610's now. i'll checkout those two.

    your correct on the cc bump, 630 is where they are now... long day. And for the record I have no interest in the 630 due to the size, want the 450-510 version however looked anyway to eliminate the possibility in the summer and they still advertise it for sale
    I stand corrected... the 610 is an 08 for $5500....even worse Milford,Ct craigslist

    The 510 is a race motor. Like a crf, or a yzf. The 610&630 are milder motors (630 has the fancy head from the 510) but more like the lc4(625), xr, klr, that sort of thing.
    The 625smc and the husky 610/630 are designed to be daily drivers, the 510, notsomuch.

    The 630's are going dirt cheap. I think I saw 6500 brand new. They had poor reviews from what I read.

    They are really bogged from the factory. If you browse the forums on them you can see a few quick, easy, cheap things that need pulling off to really uncork them. A simple tune and then they are a hoot.

    no idea...i remembered seeing it over there so i figured i would just post up but it seems it's the same one you were already looking at...i can leave a message on the thread to find out if you're not a member over there?

    edit: seems as though it's still available cause the last post was yesterday on the smj forum
