TRANSMOTO 24-HOUR TORTURE TEST

15 years ago

In two 12-hour days, we put three new KTMs through more punishment than the average bike cops in six months. We test the KTM 300 EXC, the KTM 250 EXC-F and the KTM 530 EXC. But how do the three compare in terms of consumption rates and repair costs? Pick up Transmoto Issue #5 and find out. Or buy a subscription and receive nine issues of Transmoto for just $60 delivered straight to your door! Until then, check out the behind-the-scenes video of the event.
