Thanks! These were taken at the Pine Barrens 500 ride in Oct 2007.

The engine sump guard is from Thunderbike in NZ. I fabricated an extension to cover the water pipe that comes out of the radiator on the left hand side.

I also added a KTM 950 Tool box from Touratech.

Makes me want to go buy a steamer...

   Very inspirational,  I like the tan color too!


yagi

Nice jump......and love the colour.... :D

did you bottom out looking at the pic of you landing.. :?:

Patrick

Better, we don't call it landing. I think the appropriate word is impact.  :lol:

Yes, the suspension was beyond it's limits. But it was helluva fun!  8)
