06 KTM625 ... Feedback??

Badhabit on here has a 625 and he likes it quite a bit, no price listed so can't say anything on that point. Can't beat the milage, LC4 is a pretty good engine, some don't care for the vibration but any thumper will vibrate.
Buy it and come race Colorado Class with us (asphalt only).
And I am liking the black plastic.

Its listed at $6200.00 then its gonna cost me about $500 to have it shipped.

I think it will make a fun bike for just playing around and I will probably do a couple of track days next year. I will make sure and hook up with you guys if i end up getting it!

[Badhabit]

Very nice! I'm loving the black!


If they'll do $6200 including shipping that would be a steal. I think the price is pretty good considering.

Did you ever buy that 625? Thats a sharp looking one no doubt.If still looking I have an 05 4 sale and I wont charge to take it to denver, Im in Nebraska now.

What's the seat hight on one of those?
I like the looks of that bike.

[Pork Chop]

I could measure, its pretty adjustable, you can always crank it up or down.But Im 6 foot 4 and can either flat foot or tip toe depending on where I set the suspension at.I could measure tomorrow though when I take it back to work after lunch.

The guy ended up selling it to someone local, so i didnt get it ! Now that i have seen that KTM is building the 690SMR, I think I am gonna go that route instead. Or may even consider the Husky 510 since it will be FI this year..... Choices choices!

[Pork Chop]

Well just keep me in mind.Mines got the usual scrathces from riding it around and carrying a back pack, so its far from the perfect black one.PM or e-mail if ya want anymore info.

Looks too good to be true, so beware.

Yep, fucking scammer. I thought I would ask about it. This is what he replied with.

Hello Wade,
About my 2005 KTM 625 SMC the price is $2650. First I have to let you know that the bike is located in Madrid, Spain. I've moved back here 2 months ago with my fiance, I've wanted to register it here but i found out that to register it i need to pay the VAT tax+ other registration fees that costs over 900euro. The bike has Us clear title. I will pay for the shipping back to US so you will not have to pay additional taxes, just the price for it. Rear tire is new with about 1000 miles on it. No accidents, never laid down. All maintenance is current. The bike now has 5165 miles. Please let me know if you need more pics.
I will appreciate a fast answer from your part
Kyle
