Is it sand coloured? If so it could be one used by the SAS in the first gulf war.

My dad has a KTM Enduro 350 that the MOD were getting rid of that the SAS used in the first gulf war, they had 20 odd KTM's and a load of Hondas. Make sure you find some documentation regarding it's previous military registration. You should be able to track it down to a unit it was with with the proper MOD papers. Dad managed to find the original shop who supplied the KTM's to the SAS with all of the frame numbers/engine numbers still on their ledger!

How much are you getting it for? They should be fairly cheapish by now. Any pics?

brilliant bikes, ive had 4 or 5 over the years. they are bullet proof.
well worth 650 i woundn't hessitate for a second in getting another one... or 2
the only thing i found was the exhaust is quite restrictive,
where it meets the head the internal weld is normally over done and chokes the bike a bit,
nothing a dremmel can't fix.

I know this may sound very strange, but is it a diesel?

I thought that MOD bikes were diesel so they only had to take one fuel type into theatre. Perhaps that is just theatre bikes however.
