		I have had this thing for a week and I cannot get off of it. I believe that it requires more mechanical skills than other bikes. This should not be a turn off since it is easy to do once you figure it out and you will be a better motorcycle owner because of it. It has the power and the weight to mak<span class="simple_review_box" >...</span><span class="expand_review_box" style="display:none;">e this a great off-road bike. While on the street you may find that the lightness makes it tricky to use if you are on the interstate and get passed by a big rig. I hated my XT225 because of the lack of power and I hated the DLR650 because of its weight. This bike is a great balance of the two but it is not a street bike and you shouldn't expect it to be. </span>

		I rode a Honda XR650l for two years then took a year off and bought the new 2009 530 KTM exc-r. I am extremely pleased with the power this bike delivers. Its throttle response is crisp and to the point with power through-out the revs. The only problem I have had with the bike was the cylinder fillin<span class="simple_review_box" >...</span><span class="expand_review_box" style="display:none;">g up with fuel because I never shut the petcock on the tank off after the first ride. The charcoal filter filled with fuel first then it slowly filled the vent lines back to the carb. I solved the problem by having a dealer remove the emissions colntrol and the air pump. It has noticably more power, easier starting and better overall runnning condition. Although this bike is more suited to dirt it is still a great commuter.</span>

Great Bike

By Daniel Villwock(Owner), Apr. 6, 2009
I have had this thing for a week and I cannot get off of it. I believe that it requires more mechanical skills than other bikes. This should not be a turn off since it is easy to do once you figure it out and you will be a better motorcycle owner because of it. It has the power and the weight to mak... Read Full Review
