And I believe the Huskys are 510s or 630s.. and the 630s are 04 models

The KTM 625 are very nice rides. Yes there are more dealers but the ones around here do not like to respond to inquires but phone or email
It could be the supermoto 610 is new this year. Here it is. I really like the blue/yellow one.

It kicks ass and comes completely set-up from the factory with good suspension, braided lines, etc. Your only other alternative in ready-made supermoto bikes is the Suzuki DRZ-400 which is less-than $6k, but takes some tinkering to get right and will always have a power deficit without a weight advantage.
If you are going to race, then that's a whole other can of worms...
Welcome to the most fun on two wheels!

I was also looking at the KTM 625 but have been told by a couple of dealers that it will be May before they get their 2006 625 and that the price is going up $1300.00 to around $8600 - $8800.00 while the Husky is around $7200 - $7400.00. The Suzuki is what started the whole supermoto thing going again. Its just that I am a big person, 6'6" and 300#, and I will wany more than lower 30's for horsepower. It can be built up for a couple of grand but that still puts it at around $8000.00. I also have access to Yamahas at a god price and could build a wr450 but it would end up costing about what the Husky is going to cost. That and the fact that the Husky is a street legal bike and is more durable than the wr as it is a race bike.
