I went to snowshoe today and was talking to the KTM guys. Tim ran the 525 there and that thing is put together well. The only things that i seen wrong was he lost a nerf bar but anyone can do that. Some good things about the 525 are

GOOD
1. His had no rev limiter in reverse.
2. Pro pegs come stock.
3. Very fast air filter removal
4. Rear axle is ajustable from 46" to 49"
5. Comes stock with nice steering stablizer mount.
6. Huge gas tank, They only filled up once. and they only put a gallon in then it still had 3/4 of a tank at the end.
7. Anti vibe stem stock.
8. Douglas rims stock.

BAD
1. You have to remove the rear plastic to ever get to the battery.
2. Front fender brace looks kinda weak.
3. 4ply tires
No set price yet. They ask what I would pay for something set up like there demo 525 was and I told him no more than 8500. He just kinda laughed
Those are the only things that I didnt like. There was one of the craziest mud sections that I have ever seen there. Tim got stuck once in the mud but me and a friend broke our backs to get him out.

I have wet dreams about this quad every night. I just hope it isnt too expensive. Hopefully I can get my hands on one somehow.
