New Zealand BRO Catches His KTM On Fire At The National

This was a photo one of the BROs sent me over the weekend. Some dude at the New Zealand Nationals just BROing for it a little too hard and catching his bike on fire like a boss. Leave it to the ginger bike of motocross to blow the fuck up to the point where it actually catches on fire. That’s what you get for running a bike with a gas cap that was made to cover a gatorade bottle. But hey, worst comes to worst, there is always going to be a spot for flaming bike guy at Crusty Demons. They love that shit down in Australia anyway.

    • bcBud

  • frank

    nothing some orange spray paint and a few orange zipties cant fix..he’ll be at the races next week with a Honda i bet.

    • Mxlover

    You can try to slow it down, but you cant stop the ktm train. Its the begining of the end for the jap bikes.

    • bcBud

      close but not “really” the “beginning of the end” for all Jap bikes……. some are willing to throw another $15K at their Rice bike when they get it home …. once your finished its still only worth half what you paid for it originally …. the good news you now have enuf stock parts to build another new stock Jap bike …. it can become a “vicious” circle if you are not careful ….

    If you ride a KTM, the only good thing you’ve got going for yourself is at least its not a Husqvarna

    On a side note, I hear Robby Marshall is on a Dungey edition 450

    • Jeffro

      Just to make it clear, would I buy a KTM? Probably not….would I turn down a sponsorship/support from them…. NO

      Hoping to see Marshall at a supercross race soon

    video of the katoom on fire here (the bottom vid): http://www.moto-media.net/?id=1633

    • perry

      apparently the gas cap came off and the electric starter lit it up

    • Swamp Donkey

      That video doesn’t show what really happened. He got too close to his KTM toaster and BOOM. Coming soon: KTM fire extinguishers

  • NZbro

    BRO you are one dumb fucking bro. When will you dumb fucking yanks realize New Zealand is not anywhere remotely attached to Australia! we are fucking hundreds of miles of pacific ocean away! shesh. The geographical awareness of a yank doesn’t extend outside there own state! world! what world? there’s other countries outside the u.s.a? no way. praise the lord!

    • Swamp Donkey

      Yeah us dumb yanks don’t know shit. I want to move to NZ because they clearly have better schools “they’re.” “Their” you go, have a nice day.

    • Anonymous

  • mx396

  • Rest of NZbros

    On behalf of the rest of the BROs in NZ I appologise and inform that the grogan responsible for the comment above has been deported on the grounds that his severe stupidity and extreme lacking sense of humor has rendered him a burden on society and is no longer welcome in our country. As you were.
