Riding with a KTM SMC-R

[@Darkvisor]

great video. question: how is the 701 on longer rides/travels? I've only ridden it a few times but not any longer trips

[@MargusMoto]

Well, it’s definitely doable. I did 4000 km in 10 days on asphalt. Back when I had the enduro. First day was 700+ km. But I only did it to prove a point (that it is doable). If you are happy keeping the speeds below 100km/h, then it is fine. The seat is hard as wood, but you can move around a lot and it helps. My throttle had started failing way before my butt did.. So yeah, doable, but there are definitely way better bikes for that. 🤷

@@MargusMoto thanks for the answer =)

This 701 is beauty and one of the kind! KTM suspension was adjusted sitiffer for better cornering speeds.

Thanks man! It was a fun ride.. though a rather slow one :D Next time I'd need to find some faster roads!

Tsau! Vaatan, et hetkel müügis. Mis asemele tuleb? Ise ilmselt lähen järgmine nädal desert sledi vaatama. Kuigi süda kutsub Tenere 700 järele. 👋

Müügis jah. Järgmine on loodetavasti Triumph Bobber, kui sellele Supermotole ostja leian. Desert Sled tasub kindlasti järgi proovida. Hääl üksi on juba selline, mis paneb südame veits kõvemini põksuma ;)
