They are really cool looking, I like them. ~10 more HP than a KLR650, and WAY better looking, but they weigh more than a KLR does. They are deceiving, I think that they LOOK lighter.

if ya wanna know whats its like to ride just put KLR susp on a ktm 950 and pull one spark plug out,,,, seriously, thats a pretty good dscription.

its a pretty nice base of a bike, buts its way to heavy for the engine, and the susp really needs a complete re-do for any real off road work. i think yamaha would have one heck of a bike if they put a 800cc engine in that chassis and boosted the susp to something more like the super ten.
