Have a 2001 400 exc that was tied up to a telephone pole outside for close to a decade. Thing runs solid and rips. These Ktms are great bikes.

Man i love these older Ktms👍 probably my favorite 4 stroke motor of all time, the 520/525...brute torque right off idle 😊 ive owned 3 over the years. Where I ride at here in WV, there are alot of long, steep pipeline hillclimbs and these big orange thumpers were the favorite bike of the locals for a long time.

I had a 2002 KTM 520 SX. Best bike I ever owned.

Sweet, I have the 07' 560 SMR, been sitting for a few years, just got the carb rebuilt and plan to get her started soon.

RIP Gary Nixon! That guy was awesome, I was luck enough to be his MotoGp buddy, he got me VIP Passes at Laguna Seca until the year he died, I miss him! I just picked up one of these bikes, I'm excited to rebuild it.

Remember riding at the moto track in Rocky hill in 03 and treadwell was ripping around on one.He would come into the corner and roll the throttle, we were in awe at the low end/torque the bike had!awesome machine fellas.

I remember Kelly Smith riding that bike for KTM in the off season "4-stroke nationals" around 2002, and winning the series I believe. Red Bud had a round where Kelly DNFed a moto though. He missed a gear up the face of LaRacco's leap, (I was talking with his Dad, Hershel, who was watching Kelly, and in the middle of our conversation he said, Opps, he missed a gear."), and came up short with a hard hit. He did not crash or get hurt, but the engine broke a motor mount causing the engine to shift and pull the carb from the air boot.
I will just stick to the trails. :)

Got myself an 01 520MXC and it's my heart I never let her go

Can’t wait to take it for a rip, your a gentleman and a scholar Ken thanks again for the amazing deal on an amazing bike 🤙🏻

I have a 2001 MXC520 with the factory desert tank, electric start and a six speed. As a bonus it is street licensed which makes it extra usable in the Pacific Northwest. I have had it for almost 20 years and never fails to put a smile on my face when I get it out.

Killer bike, you guys put out the best around!

[randallburgess]

Awesome machine! My last dirt bike was the best one ever at the time to me. It was a mid 70s Penton 250 hare scrambler with a KTM motor. I always loved the Sachs motors, but many said the KTM was a better choice.

Watched this channel years ago and just discovered again. You are as American as it gets.

[Shortpockets]

Would love for you to show a little of the history in the buildings around your shop. Some of it looks abandoned. Very cool area

Morning coffee and bikes. How I start my day😎

[METALfanUSMC]

My 03 KTM 525SX is my current and favorite I've owned 👌 Not only its competitive to today's bikes, it will outlast all of them from valvetrain to bores.

[anthonymathieson]

i had 2003 525 sx with big bore 540 kit with exc 6speed and electric start one of the quickest bikes goin round atm not many bikes could beat it

[regdavenport]

I still have a 01 520 mxc. Rips harder than my 16 450xcw. RFS engines badass, but we all know it's originally a husaberg design. KTM made the husaberg design reliable.

For a 4 stroke dirtbike lol, she's gorgeous. All of Uncle Dale's bikes are Mint Condition! ❤
