Hello;

If you want a motocross bike you have to buy a KTM SX and not an EXC, which is an enduro bike...

KTM/GasGas,i dont think you'd be upset eitherway.

But you already have a KTM,so even though the bikes are very different,they still share many common things.Shit even the wheels will swap.You already know where the dealer is.
I personaly find it easyer to stay with a brand with multipul bikes.Think of all the space in the tool box you can save,let alone all your ride'n gear will already match.

I dont think Gas Gas makes an MX bike so the choice is easy.

Damn!! You're in Turkey/Istanbul? Do you have a local dealer for either bike?
