KTM 640 LC4 Enduro
I'm coming up
to the 10 000 km mark on the Katoom now, so it's probably time
to post a review. This is the most versatile and most funnest
bike I have ever owned. The bike has been totally stock until
recently. When the curves come up the fun begins. The 300mm disc & Brembo caliper on the front do well slowing down, careful on the down changes 'else the rear will be chirping & skittering around, especially on the stock semi knobblies. The big travel forks & 21 front hoop don't give the feel of a sportbike, but seem to hang on well. At the apex give the bitch a handful & hang on - the very good WP rear shock & the big single power delivery give awesome drive & traction, seemingly oblivious to any lumpy tarseal as you exit the corner. This thing is a total blast on twisty tarmac, the tighter the better. It's fairly comfortable too, I think nothing of going for a 600km road ride, however I would like to try the wider, softer seat KTM make, and maybe one day I'll make a bit of a windscreen to take the load off my arms as you do have to pull yerself into the bars a little bit at highway speeds. Review: Clint, Kiwibiker, October 2004
