KTM SX description

This is a running 1978 KTM GS 175 six speed with a TITLE.. We have other projects in our shop and have decided to sell this bike without restoring it. The bike pulls hard through all gears and has had a PVL ignition installed so it cranks on the 2nd or 3rd kick even dead cold. We hope the pictures will show the bike in a very honest way. The frame has been previously painted with a darker red than original. We power washed the bike, ran it and gave it a coat of WD40. The bike will need a new air filter. Great bike for vintage hare scrambles or motocross. Go vintage racing at a very affordable price.

Bike runs shifts great - suspension feels good!

We have other vintage MX bikes listed!! Take a look at our other auctions!!

We offer amazing rates for shipping both internationally and domestic. Domestic shipments are moved via enclosed trailer and fully insured - normally a 2 week window. International shipments are crated and insured for your safety and run 4-6 weeks from port to port. Again these are rough estimates. International buyers - we can handle transport to to most anywhere in the world - you are responsible for any customs duties or import tax. We can crate and ship to the port in the UK for $750 and $995 to AUS.

These are 30-40+ year old vintage dirt bikes. The original manufacturers didn't warranty them when they were new, so neither will I. Every used vintage dirt racing motorcycle, whether it has been restored or not, will ALWAYS need SOMETHING adjusted, tweaked, modified, replaced, repaired by YOU before you ride or race it. Since no bike is perfect, please be reasonable and understand this before bidding. The bike is sold AS IS with no warranty written nor implied on these 30+ year old competition machines.

Thanks for looking and feel free to take a look at our other vintage and post vintage MX bike auctions!

2013 KTM Freeride 350 Gets CARB and EPA Approval

Wed, 20 Mar 2013

The KTM Freeride 350 has cleared emission certification testing in the U.S. including the state of California, getting approval from both the Environmental Protection Agency and the California Air Resources Board. A leaked powerpoint slide from KTM’s North American dealer meeting in 2011, listed the Freeride 350 for 2013 and they may still happen.

Milan Show: KTM 125 Duke... M/C Saviour

Wed, 03 Nov 2010

Of the bikes that we saw at the EICMA show it wasn’t an electronically supported sports bike or a unique and genre-defining muscle machine that were impressive, but the host of learner friendly 125 singles and in particular the KTM 125 Duke. On first glance the 125 Duke looks wild with the token angular bodywork that befits the company’s overall styling cues and the bike was swamped with enamoured gazes from all ages – in particular an Italian father and son who spent well over 10 minutes looking over every inch of the lil’ Duke with mouth-watering anticipation. The three colour options are ideal for the teenage crowd that KTM are trying to attract with this bike.

Duke-Based 2015 200 KTM Supermoto Spied

Wed, 11 Dec 2013

KTM is following-up its small-displacement naked Duke and RC sportbike models with a new line of supermotos based off of the same platform. As with the Duke and RC models, we should expect KTM to offer supermotos in 125, 200 and 390 versions, all sharing similar engines and frames. A test mule of what appears to be a KTM 125 or 200 Supermoto prototype was spotted fueling up somewhere in Europe and from the photograph (see below for a larger version) above we can see a swingarm, ten-spoke wheels and trellis frame that appear identical to those on the Duke.
