I don’t much like all the crap in the fairings; prefer just a small screen so it’s better in the single track. Jeff Iken has the ideal fairing I think. The big fuel tanks are a bonus but skip the rest. The 660R is a fast bike but based on the old 640 motor which is a massive vibrator. Of the two; I’d pick the 450 for sure but if I were to sell my 300 and 690 to replace with just one bike; I’d probably go for either a 500exc or one of the new Husabegs
Fair enough, I don’t do much single track so the 450 rally fairing would suit my usage. I rode a 640 once and 2 minutes was enough to convince me I couldn’t live with that motor.
The 660 would be a worthwhile hold, as a former Dakar entrant bike. Pity the price & then landing costs would make it less than viable.
I remember you ride mine out of the gas station in Taumarunui.
I felt the same way at first when I test rode the one I bought….BUT, it certainly grew on me and it wasn’t an issue once the feeling from the waist down disappears…
Geez, what is everyone worried about? A few vibes is healthy..
I had dreamed of one of these but reality and riding around on other bikes says its a dream that would probably not be as good in real life (specially not at 40+K NZ colonthree emoticon ) Dont like doing it but will agree with Michael, this time gasp emoticon
Here’s another couple, finished Dakar 2016. $19,000US each.

I love the dual exausts on these things. I wonder who in NZ could make a header connector that could end in dual slip-on.
Any one has an idea?
Cheers
These guys are in Auckland but i don’t know anything about them

Cycleworks have been making exhausts for 20+ years

Thanks mate, much appreciated.
Yep, Custom Chambers has done a few jobs I either have, or know of. Good guy, but old school, no website last I checked, deals via phone. Botany Honda also sends work his way.
edit: Holy shit, he has a website! http://www.customchambers.co.nz/

After watching Lyndon Poskets “Blazing through Baja” I have dreamed almost nightly of a Posket Racing equipped KTM 450 Rally. The sound of that full Akropovic when the 2ndrys kick… What a sweet sweet evil sound.
Truth is unless I get rich, or become an excellent ruder and become sponsored it’s just a dream, but one I wake smiling from. And the sound and feel of my current 450 is certainly great enough!
Unfortunately I don’t know the name off the top of my head but one of the Ozzy Husaberg guys is getting a custom exhaust from a Hawks Bay company, he asked me if I knew of them, as is using them for his street fighter build. (because you only put a Akropovic or a Barret, on a Berg) Joao If your still looking for a custom exhaust I can ask him for the name.
Here’s your chance, Lyndon is selling his LPR 450 Rally, only 18,000GBP, which is roughly $35,000NZD.
