Y
ou can't do this in any other motorsport. Sure, you can buy a
Ford, but it's not the same Ford that races in NASCAR. Yes,
you can own a Ferrari, but not the Ferrari that races Formula
1. Even MotoGP racers ride machines made of pure unobtanium.
But motocross is different. In our world, you can buy virtually the
same bike that races inside stadiums on Saturday nights. Sure, the
factory riders have their one-off parts or nuanced setups, but the
"production rule" keeps their base model very similar to the one we
roll off the dealership floor. KTM took this idea up a notch in 2012
when they released its first Factory Edition model.
