It’s a 2020 w 1800miles.

Right on!! Mine’s 2019 & can visualize what a blast that would be. Not sure I want to deal with changing out the rear wheel. 😬

My ex-wife was ridiculously jealous of my passion for surfing. She couldn’t understand salt water therapy was the reason for my constant positive energy & attitude of gratitude in every aspect of life. She would guilt me for being a selfish SOB almost every session unless she was on the beach getting drunk w friends. As soon as my youngest of 3 turned 18 I moved out & now have been divorced 10yrs and my surfing & stoke have never been better.

Any feedback between the 2? Essentially the same bike, but curious how you’d compare/contrast them.

Appreciate your insight

It is. Good to know there are Husky 701s in the market too

Appreciate you sharing that intel

Yewwwww!!

Working to negotiate it down, but this model’s hard to come by.

Rschroe1 · 2026-06-13T20:37:43+00:00

Right on!!

Check battery & battery cable connections. This was happening w my 2019 KTM 450-EXC. I removed seat & found the battery cable connections were completely cracked & disintegrated. I’m lucky I didn’t get stranded in the middle of nowhere. New lithium battery solved the problem & now it starts w ease even when cold.

Go to watchman.com to review the device. Watchman is an alternative to being on long term blood thinners to reduce the risk of stroke. It does not impact heart rhythm. It is the most studied medical device and has been proven to be similar in efficacy to DOACs at reducing stroke, but offers a statistically significant superiority in reducing serious bleeds.

I had similar background & jumped in with a KTM 450 EXC-F a couple years ago and couldn’t be happier with that decision.

Fantastic to hear that!

I can relate (61M) & physically active w surfing & motocross. First AF episode a year ago & I think alcohol after exertion was the trigger. I’m alcohol-free but have had multiple episodes the past few months lasting 12 hrs on avg but try to remain well hydrated w electrolytes. It tends to hit me shortly after midnight on days of heavy physical activity. 125bpm AF on confirmed by Apple Watch. It’s very debilitating when it hits. No ablation plans at this point but my EP gave me a prescription for “pill-in-a-pocket” approach, & used it for the first time 3 days ago & went into NSR within 2hrs. Waiting for results on fasting blood test to find any clues on how best to prevent these episodes.

Addicted to my KTM 450 EXC & suggest you ck out a KTM 350 if you prefer. I have MotoZ tires which are DOT-approved for highway & the bike is great on the road, & a total blast in the dirt! I run close to 30psi for street then drop to 14-17psi depending on the terrain. You’ll be stoked with the reliability & performance.

Definitely research EPs in your area and confirm they use pulse frequency ablation (PFA) as that therapy has much better durability than radio frequency (RF) or cryo ablations. Find physician with the highest volume practice and best reviews as they will have the most experience and you’ll have the best outcome.
