Wayne370Z Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 Wow. A bit different from a superbike. I`ve had a couple of KTM`s, a 620 & a 640 and loved them but only used them on road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although sounds underpowered, but 250 in forest and gravel is quite fast thing at least for novice like me. Magnificent thing for wheelies Edited October 8, 2018 by Snjur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've been asleep for a long and they came back really strong specially with SC model's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irn Bru Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 Man ... this thread brings back some great memory's. Used to have a ZX10, 750RR, GPX edition Kawa, 20 + years ago now, but Jesus that thing was mental fast in its day. Had it for over 5 years and never let me down. Loved every ride on it.

Sim Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 I've got one of the first ZX10Rs, had it from new, lots of handling mods and bigger brakes but have just left the engine alone, 100mph in first is bonkers. Best cheap mod was the Hyperpro spring kit and set-up, £300 and the best expensive mod was the BST wheels, which made a big difference as well. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wayne370Z Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 Looks like a lot of fun...... Wish we had places like that to ride off road bikes in this country where It`s illegal to ride them just about everywhere that isn`t private.

Snjur Posted October 29, 2018 Author Share Posted October 29, 2018 I feel like in my teens again. Same feeling when I got my first scooter. Here we still have that freedom that we can use freely forest's and hills. We avoid any property or land which is used for farming or private but there is really a lot of terrain and forest which can be used. I wanted to buy croesser for a long time now but I was living in city so it was pointless After I moved to mainland and with so many forest's in close vicinity it was time for it. I spent all my motorcycle career on road but simply traffic and number or cars and reckless drivers have increased abnormally and risk for accident is really big. Motocross for me doesn't lack any adrenaline or danger at all comparing to road bikes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snjur Posted November 5, 2018 Author Share Posted November 5, 2018 Again lovely weekend behind us. All in all was team of 7. 4 atv's and 3 mx bikes. Terrain has changed drastically since last ride. Mud all the way. Very slippery, very demanding and physical quite challenging but still fun all the way Forest early morning is really soms sight. Bit of fog and slight drizzle. Beautiful scenery. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snjur Posted November 9, 2018 Author Share Posted November 9, 2018 I've set my eyes on new Husqvara 710 Supermoto. I hope after this hitch abroad I will be bringing one home in January. After this enduro addiction and motocross I was amazed how easily these bikes are riden. Having spent almost 13 years now on sportsbikes and riden quite a lot of different naked and sport bikes I've was aming for something light, agile and most of all fun to tackle daily activities. Since I was lucky to survive years of all kind of road driving Im not planning to push my luck any more. I will leave my Duke solely for track use, for small daily activities I have scooter and Husqvara will be for all the rest but mainly just for fun and smiles per miles. Original colour scheme is white blue and yellow but a lot of aftermarket graphics is available. Black are my favourites. Single cylinder engine 75 bhp 145 kg of weight, ABS which can be turned off on rear wheel, 3 mappings and so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snjur Posted January 21, 2019 Author Share Posted January 21, 2019 Bit of a disappointment and change. For some reason only know to importer of Husqvarna bikes they are only importing Husqvarna Enduro bikes to Croatia. Aside of Enduro 0. Did a few call tried to see if something can be worked out for Supermoto program but without any success. Very strange approach by Husqvarna dealership. So after initial disappointment and few sad days new goal was set. KTM SMC690R which is actually close sibling to Husqvarna SM701 but with few more tweaks. For Supermoto bike it come seriously equipped from factory. Quickshifter up/down, Traction control in 2 modes angle sensitive, ABS with possiblity of switching off rear wheel and later on even front, slippery clutch, 145 kg and 74 bhp. Comparing to Husqy it's quite more upgrade. Deliveries are expected to be during February. Awaiting on price for powerparts like Akrapovic, intake and ecu tune. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
