The bike itself has been in production for years. It weighs 313 pounds and has a fuel-injected stroked KTM LC4 engine with around-the-world credentials to its name. Basically, it's a huge dirt bike with lights but with a rational engine tune (6,200 mile valve check intervals)... and 66hp with 50lbs of torque. Yes, I'll take it.
But dirt bikes are for the trails. I want something to take on highways and forest roads, as well as my local unpaved alleys. What the standard machine needs is weather protection, more fuel capacity, and uber cool looks. That's where Rally Raid comes in. They're making a rally-style kit with an additional 11 liters of fuel capacity and a tall rally-spec windscreen/shield that's good for mounting GPS units, rolls charts, and ride computers. Perfect.
I'd put it all together, paint it Ferrari red, and ride everywhere with it.
