Default ktm 525 vs outlaw 525

I have seen them. But it would be cool if they released a quad that was tuned for more tighter arenacross/supercross and another quad for outdoor, wide-open spaces motocross with longer jumps and longer approaches.

Yes you could tune one to be like the other, but it would just make the family complete. Now they just need an irs from ktm other than outlaw.

Maybe if we're lucky then ktm will put their 950/990 into a ute or SxS

Hey gary, i noticed the XC had an fmf pipe in your pictures, but the outlaw had the stock pipe- you can't really compare the two can you?

A better comparison would be a piped outlaw vs stock XC since the XC already uses a decent high flow stock exhaust.

Good catch Jacob. I was wondering if anybody else caught that, a modified 525XC against a completely stock Outlaw 525 that is probably running the stock lean jetting.

There are a couple other things to. The Outlaw had stock front tires while the KTM has sand tires for better floating. Also, I'm sure experience didn't hurt either.

YA, but that's minor- just the front tires.

The pipe makes a huge difference.

The outlaw needs a jetkit just to run at its prime, which it probably doesnt in that picture- and the ktm has a slip-on exhaust (I think its slipon becasuse I dont see the "tumor" that ktm usually has in their headers with the FMF Megabomb.
