The KTM LC4 620 was one of the great dirt bikes of the 1990s, featuring a four-stroke, single overhead-cam, liquid-cooled single-cylinder engine of 609cc with a Dell’Orto PHM 40 SD carburettor and a five-speed transmission. With a 10.4:1 compression ratio, the engine was said to be good for 55bhp at 7000rpm and 44.3ft lbs of torque at 5500rpm, while weighing just 306lbs. Unlike many off-road bikes, it was also road-legal. Dirt Rider greeted it rapturously, writing: “KTM continues to amaze us… These [the 400 and 620] are real off-road racers with the bare necessities of legality attached.”
This 1998 620 was purchased brand-new from Windy Corner Motorcycles of Barwell, Leicestershire, for £5,950. The first owner enjoyed it for several years before selling it to a friend. The opportunity arose for him to buy it back, which he did, hence it shows three registered keepers when it has strictly speaking only had two. Showing just over 11,000 miles from new, the machine is in very good overall condition, though some recommissioning may be required as it has not been on the road since 2014. Supplied with a spare front wheel and an exhaust, it is additionally accompanied by the original bill of sale, some old MOT certificates and a current V5C.
