Thanks a lot for sharing your experience. You are talking about vibrations : the 350 vibrates less than the 500 ? Is the difference that big ? I want to buy a 350 to use as a dual sport/adventure/camping trip so even if confort is minimalist, I still want to feel my finger after a long day ride !
Thanks I’m very serious about selling the 500 it’s the best easiest bike I’ve owned to ride the vibration is just to much to deal with very disappointed
I have brought the Ktm expensive vibration damping clamps and the 350 is almost non existent if I pull in the clutch it goes away instantly but remember this im talking about travelling along bitumen road to get to destinations on dirt fanging through the bush forest it’s fine no issues as having a good time don’t bother me
That’s how the 500 and 350 likes to be ridden just went for ride on the ktm350 and took my husky 350 and it’s very noticeable that the ktms steer with the rear the husky steers from the front
OK ? What is it the 500 ,or 350 ? I'm thinking about an exc-f ( KTM ) Big money ! Its a street legal dirt bike . In Canada $14000. +++ plus tax . My head is the 500 just because I think a little better on the road. The to and from work duties ; but the play ride on the way home. The 350 would put me in my old moto X days on my cr 250 for sure. So lets here it 350 or500 ?
I’ve sold the 500 and bought a husqvarna Fe 350 it’s better to ride to work on and nicer to ride on trails and through all various riding so 350 it is my sone has the 350 ktm and I have the husky 350 both these bike are totally different to ride I did a TH-cam video on these on my channel
@@thumburnfishing As we get more experienced, it's clear that the smaller bikes ridden well give you most of what you want out of a bike without the weight and inertia of the bigger bikes. Happy riding gents!

@@thumburnfishing have you tried to modify the handlebars to reduce vibrations ?
The 350 vibrates less or it's almost the same ?

@@thumburnfishing thanks a lot for taking the time, I'm more and more looking at the 350 but really have to try one ! Have fun ;)
@@cracotator Go for the 500, l had a 350 and they lack power.. l traded mine for the 500 this year. Glad that l did
You guys steer the 500 with the rear wheel a fair bit?

@@thumburnfishingyou still happy with the 350 or regret selling the 500 over the 350 ?
@@Insaiyanrider yes very happy with the 350 over the 500 and heard other riders have sold their 500 from the same reason the vibrations are too much
