Okay, i am in the process of selling my KX and am going to use the cash i get towards getting a new thumper. Ill probably buy slightly used ('02 - '03) just cause it knocks a bit off the price and might get me a few mods for free (exhaust filter bars chain ect) But here comes the question thats probably gunna start a civil war. Which should i go for, the CRF or the KTM? i knowtice i see alot of CRF's at the track, and not to many KTM motocrossers. Why is that? is it simply because honda is a more popular brand? Is the Katoom no good at moto? anyways...your opinons please people. They cost about the same, the hondas 200 more i believe, but that makes little difference.

and btw, im not interested in the YZ450F cause i couldnt touch the ground on that sucker if i wanted to and i just dont wanna be another smurf out on the track!

I'm planning on buying a crf next year
I rode a few weeks ago w/this guy that had a KTM450, that bike is fast, he really likes the electric start, but was unhappy w/the suspension.. Forks were leaking on the 2nd ride.. Overall he was happy w/the bike..

Depends on what you like, they are both excellent bikes, and if it wasn't for the price, i would have bought a ktm. but instead i bought a crf, and i love it, i put on barkbusters, 3.4 gallon fuel tank, 11oz flywheel weight, and a sidestand, i couldnt be happier
