KTM Rally 525 Bike

KTM 525XC Rally Bike

Full Dakar Mecasystems Specification bike built by TDR for the 2008 African Dakar Rally.

For those who follow the Dakar you will know that the event was cancelled 12 hours before the start day due to terrorist threats.

It was my bike for the event and came home from Lisbon without seeing action.

I then took it to Argentina for the 2010 South America event.

Unfortunately day four I had a small spill which put me out of the event.

So after much consideration it is now up for sale.

Full Mecasystems conversion professionally carried out and including the following upgrades:

Twin front fuel tanksTwin alloy Rear fuel tanks & fuel pump (Rear tanks removed at present)Low level front pipes with high level Acrapovic silencerExtended foot rests. gear change and rear brake leverScott steering damper with integral Scott bar risersStandard & HID headlampsAcerbis wrap around hand guardsMD Road BookICOExtra large bespoke radiators with Alloy guardsOil coolerLarge Alloy Sump plate with built in tool box and 3 litre water tankHeavy duty wheels with stainless spokes and rear cush driveFork protectorsHeavy duty side standLow level front rally mudguardFull mecasystems fairingClutch saverGel seatAlso has nearly new chain and sprockets.

The engine is very strong and sweet and like all 525's they are virtually indestructible.

This is not a bike for the faint hearted and its not for going to the shops on!
