How much is the cheapest KTM (scrambler) i could get, HERE?

i wished to buy one when i got my license.

Since you are a new rider, here are some myths that need to be busted quickly.

 

1. there is no such thing as cheap, fast and good shop. Cheap and good is not fast. Fast and good is not cheap. Cheap and fast is not good.

 

2. High performance and low maintenance are mutually exclusive. Such a bike has yet to be invented. You don't expect a KTM200 to have the low maintenance and good fuel consumption of a DR200 or XR200.

 

3. If fuel consumption is of top priority, forget all 2 strokes.

 

4. Cheap bike usually mean expensive repairs to bring it back to operationally ready status. Of course there are also expensive bikes that needs plenty of repair. Buyer beware.

 

5. Taking a huge loan to buy your dream bike is very bad financial planning.

 

6. You don't need a more powerful bike. 99% of new riders cannot even full throttle an XR200 on the trails.

 

7. Chicks dig sports cars / luxury cars, not dirt bikes.

Past: KDX200, LC4 400, LC4 620, GSXR750WR

Present: CBR900RRY, Gas Gas EC250, XR250L, XR250RV, XR400 (motard-ed), NX650 Dominator
