I'm comparing the TTR to the experience I had on a friends KTM 250 which is like a caged animal..So, are all TTR...

I have been in email conversation with Peter Gray of Wilderness Wheels Morocco. They run a small fleet of blue TTRs alongside their KTM 450 EXCs.

Brian, I think this is a nice idea for a new category here. Maybe some links could be added to some of the "modifcation" content hidden away in other threads? I am a habitual tinker-er & have been wondering about all kinds of add-ons, upgrades, swaps, etc.
