i doubt it, but they should, even though i hate KTM cuz they always break down *for seriouse on that one, not just knocking them, bad bad experience with them*.... they do have power though when they run.

Well, I've been riding a Raptor since 2000 with pipe, jet, cam, piston, port, rev box, & polished head. Nice bike with decent power. Here comes my 04 KTM525sx!!! Godzilla... My Raptor isn't even close.... I'll kiss the salesperson's a** if there is ever an atv that hits so hard & fast that's stock.

A KTM Quad would be awesome for a race quad, but for long term use, NO THANKS. Every KTM owner I ever met saaid they had to stay on top of maintenance issues with valves gear, chain, etc....basically the things have been, in the past, too finicky....

If they made something you could flog for months at a time......they would have an awesome powerplant for sure.

Yes, KTM is making a quad...but not till 2007.

Here is an interview with a KTM rep at the Canadian MC show...
http://www.totalmotorcycle.com/inter...aInterview.htm

KTM has also been approached by Artic Cat to buy our engines to place into their ATV's (All Terrain Vehicles) but the big news there is that we refused to sell them our engines because in 2007 we expect to make our own ATV's!
