Hey Guys,

If you could choose between a KTM 450 or 525/530 to use as a rally bike , which one would you use and why ?

Also, what changes would you make to the bike you choose ?


I know the 450s are very high maintenance... why is this and is there anything that can be done to make it more reliable and to extend the service intervals ?
(should the gearing be changed for a rally ?)


....Pls dont tell me to rather look at the WR450...I know it's more reliable etc but lets stick to the KTMs for now.
