Posted October 14, 200915 yr I fancy an MT-03 for an every day all year round commute bike? are they any good I have had a ktm + ccm in the past so know what to expect from a big single.
October 15, 200915 yr It depends what you want it for,,,, Not much good if you are planning to cross the Atacama Desert, you'd be better with the XT X or Z, If you just want a fun bike that's not going to spends it's life trying to rip up your licence, then yes it is. The 660 motor is a rock, and you can free up oooooodlles of torque by getting rid of the Cat, opening the airflow and a bit of tinkering. But realy, the MT's are a bit of a style thing, rather than a ride thing - they look very different. See if you can dig out some posts from Barwell, he had one (maybe still has it)
