Dakar Competitors – 2013 and 2014 KTM 450 RRs

In Austria, Off-Road, Race by AbhiLeave a Comment

Team Rally Pan Am is “America’s premier motorcycle rally team,” and they’ve been competing for years all over the world. Last year their two riders (Ian Blythe and Scott Bright) placed 26th and 52nd in the Dakar Rally respectively, including a top 10 stage finish by Blythe – 8th place in stage 11. Now both those bikes are up for sale – so if you’re riding it, you’ll know your inability to get through terrain is your lack of skill, not the bike’s lack of capability!

There isn’t much detail given about these bikes, but they’re apparently in excellent running condition and they include all the team’s upgrades and graphics packages. The bikes are being offered by Dave Peckham, Team Manager of Rally Pan Am. He’s also the owner of ICO Racing and Rally Management Services. So here’s the question – would you get one of these, or the Speedbrain BMW 450 racer from a month ago?
