#motorcycleadventure #dualsport #adventuremotorcycling #ktm500exc While Clubby and I have been building the Honda CRF300 L Rally, my mate Mark has been quietly and conscientiously completing the build of his KTM500 EXC Adventure.
The Honda CRF300 L Rally has drawn focus of adventure riders back to simple and light machinery and whilst it's a great contender in the under 400 cc class, many riders, in fact most on this channel are seeking a little more grunt. They want a big single that can take them comfortably on a decent motorcycle adventure certainly of up to a week's duration. They don't want a heavy twin and they know a build such s Mark's probably weighs around 125 kilograms ringing wet.
The KTM500 EXC has a reputation as a capable round the world adventure bike having successfully taken a number of riders on their trip of a life time. Most recently Kiwi, Aaron Steinman has ridden a 500 around the world.
I will post the interview I did with him at the end of this video for people interested in the capability of this bike to get the hard long mile under their belt.
For those new to MAD TV I'd encourage you to look around the channel, we have international adventures, bike reviews and Chris Birch extreme videos and other stuff and most recently some great films from Nick Sanders. Occasionally we go live for some fun. Here are some links to help you find the good stuff.
