hi ive had a kmx and a ktm on the road,but my tdr is better than both i think,the seat on my tdr is curved so more comfortable,and the bike sits higher.it seems to have more power than the other 2,and its faster,ive had 85mph out of my tdr(im a big bloke)it would do a bit more with a smaller bloke rideing it,

 i payed £370 for mine as a non runner ,then another £200  on the mot and a few upgrades(the newer ones are going for around £600-£1600),ive cut and earthed the blue/black wire from the cdi,fitted a 18 tooth front sprocket ,turned the powervalve 180,i set the servo up so the powervalve is opening all the way,and fitted a dep back box.its does around 85 mph(it would go a bit faster with a smaller bloke on it) i hope this help a bit.
