KTM Adventure description

This is my 2006 KTM 640 Adventure. I'm the original owner. It has taken me across the country on the Trans-Am Trail, and on trips to Mexico. It runs great, and is ready for its next adventure. I just bought a new bike and need to sell this one to make room.

It comes with:

Touratech Zega paniers
Heated grips wired with an aerostich non-resistance heat controller
KTM tankbag (not pictured)
KTM soft topcase (not pictured)
Laminar Lip (not pictured)
KTM GPS/Rollchart mount bar (no GPS included)
Charcoal canister replaced with euro-model toolbox
Rear brake lever replaced with 660 Rally model with brake snake
Kaoko throttle lock
Accerbis two-piece front fender
KTM short fender extension
Key-switched fusebox mounted between instruments and mask
After market side-stand
Extra powerlet accessory plug
Battery tender cable installed
KTM two-piece orange rear sprocket (aluminum body, steel teeth)
KTM racing exhaust (not currently installed, will include with bike)

The bike has less than 33k miles, about 50/50 street dirt. Currently has Mefo Explorer tires that have about 1/3 of their life left.

After getting stuck in the mud on a trip I replaced the original low front fender with a high fender. To do this, I removed one of the front disc rotors/calipers, and replaced the double banjo bolt on the first caliper. I also replaced the front brake lever/master cylinder assembly with the one from the earlier year model. This is the setup that was standard on this model prior to 2004 and is much more appropriate to offroad use. I still have all the parts I removed to do this (NOT INCLUDING THE LOW FENDER) and will include them with the bike.

Imperfections:

Scratches on the sides of the tank from off-road spills
Lids to the paniers rattle as they have loosened over time
Small hole in the dash where a switch used to be mounted to control the heated grips
Laminar lip tends to fall off when riding off-road. New dual lock dots would fix this, but I haven't had time to order them - They cost less than $10 from Laminar.

Off-Road Motorcycle and Free-Ride Bicycle Compared

Thu, 11 Dec 2008

What if anything do bicycles and motorcycles have in common? Besides the whole two-wheel thing, it isn’t outright apparent that these two “handle-barred beasts” share more than ancient ancestry. Modern Off-road motorcycle and Free-ride bicycle designs side-by-side illustrate how much technology the two have in common.
