No you didn’t but I don’t post up every time KTM or any bike other than a Honda wins so we should leave it there

I have seen Dust to Glory, isn’t that the one we watch every time I come to your house before a ride?

No Green it wasn’t an XR but they have won once or twice in the past from memory.

How many motorcycles can you name that won Baja 1000 races spanning a 12-year period? Not to mention nine off-road championships and dozens of other major off-road events. Only one motorcycle makes the cut: Honda’s mighty XR600R. Honda’s off-road four-strokes have been immensely successful in terms of both sales and race wins for decades, and the most successful of them all is the legendary XR600R.

In only its first year, the XR650R posted overall wins in the Baja 1000, Baja 500 and the grueling Nevada 2000.

The XR650R is an amazing machine, but no matter how many records the new XR650R breaks, the XR600R’s incredible 15-year off-road reign will never be forgotten

So all yee who mock us XR riders,stick that in your pipe and smoke it. :laugh:

Micks not right actually

The 650 won it from 2000 to 2005 before that the XR won it 4 years in a row I think it was

But the threads not about that really, I just mentioned that Honda won it again is all and Moto got all bent outa shape.

Ktm to their credit has made a couple of serious full factory backed efforts but its a tough nut to crack

They actually purpose built the 690 for that race and got a 3rd in 2007 see
here

Its not a pissing contest this thread, sorry I mentioned the winner

I didn’t say it won every year,I was saying the same basic model won over a 12 year span.
