OKayyy... 'Scuse my KTM ignorance, but What Is That Thang?

I don't recognize it at all. Might have something to do with the fact that the nearest KTM dealer is 5 hours away... but still...

 Sweet bike! Sorry I didn't get my DR650 back on the road yet for you to try out...but I think you already knew what you wanted....lol.
 That is a 640 isn't it? I have considered one myself...

Yep it is a 2006 KTM 640 Adventure
27.5 litres of fuel
450 km range
385lbs
54 hp
37.5 in seat height
11 inches of travel

Wanted one for a very long time. Been looking at this one for a few months, it is pristine, well loved and with just over 7,000 kms. Threaded adjuster valves make it easy to maintain.
