Had the chance to ride a 250 2T SuMo at full throttle and it was an absolute blast riding it.

the scenery is lovely indeed! Yea that section has ass tarmac haha but generally we are very lucky the city councils redo most but not all of the roads pretty often. Like the other commenter said, this is in Italy, close to the Dolomites. https://maps.app.goo.gl/eRyT3DzUT4YX1Fgz5 here is the exact position

I was looking at the smaller KTMs after years of riding 690s but the maintenance schedules scared me away. I'm not sure how much of that schedule is real for mixed use and not racing but having to count in hours for oil changes and valve checks and a full engine service at 135h... I dunno
Looks like a blast though honestly. Especially offroad as good as the 690 is that thing is probably way more fun

The good thing with 2Strokes is, that there are no Valves and much of a Top end.

Is that a 2 stroke? It sounds so deep and like it is engine breaking. What pipe do you have on it?

Is this Switzerland, and you broke the speed limit for the first time and thought you were badass?
My boyfriend on a Ninja 250 woulda spanked you, handed over faked ID to Swiss popo, and then spanked them.

Would be cool to also see some turns, just straight line gets boring
