There used to be a ktm 550 trike conversion at buttercup dunes(south end of glamis) it ran real well, guy used to wear a fighter pilot helmet was kinda weird. Not sure if any of you older dune guys remember him i think he used to swap between buttercup and patton valley with a couple visits to glamis, I have no idea where im going with this post but oh well (oh ya smoked the ktm First run out second run ripped off the pipe so i guess were even oh well!
Very cool. Anything big bore is excellent in my book. Gotta love anything thats larger than 500 cc's.
Is that the original shock on the Tiger? Those guys were ahead of thier time....no linkage on the swinger??
Looks like a modern day KTM shock set up:
