08 KTM 505 XC-F Off-Road with msvracingpowersports.com

July 9, 2017 by Jason Meyer Leave a Comment

Took the 505 out for a “get to know me rip” this morning. It is a neat bike that can sing high and shug down low when needed.
The DOHC 505 is not your typical SOHC 500 class dirt bike. It was built to compete in the old FIM 499cc MX1 class so it is basically a big bore 450.
The brakes are stellar, it turns great, the suspension needs some minor fine tuning, definitely a difference in ignition maps, going back to stock gearing, and even though it was dry slick the Dunlop MX51’s did well.
To sum it up, if you have ridden a modern 350 4t vs a newer 450 this was the difference between the 505 and my Berg fe650.
The vid shows some normal ripping, neat scenic view point and a fall down while going down a slick down hill.
