Cheap adventure bike. Capable of touring or real deal Rallye. I used to have one of these and it will shake the shit out of you but has such amazing ability on and off the road. Very rare as well there aren’t many of these. For sale in Santa Cruz and will likely sell quickly.
2007 KTM 990 Adventure - $5,500
This 990 Adventure has a new motor, Akrapovic dual exhausts, Renazco racing seat, wow! The carb’ed models are better in my opinion but if you don’t want to mess with carbs, this is an incredible bike for the money. For sale in Flagstaff on Craigslist. Looks clean.

2006 KTM 660 Factory Rally - $17500
Real deal Dakar rally bike for sale in Scotts Valley CA on Craigslist. Looks to have been rebuilt and more like a rider than a collectible. The owner also mentions they have a spare motor. The 2006 bikes had silver motors so this must be a rebuilt motor already in the bike.
