KTM450 Desert Sled by RSD

"Kurt Caselli Foundation" 2015 KTM 450 SX-F by RSD

On November 7th the movie “On Any Sunday, The Next Chapter” will be released in USA. To promote it, Red Bull North America commissioned Roland Sands a dedicated special bike, something able to bring back to the original 1971 classic “On Any Sunday”. As a tribute to Kurt Caselli, the offroad champion who lost his life last year during the 2013 Baja 1000, it has been decided that the donor bike, supplied by KTM North America, would have been turned into a “desert sled”. After the RSD special treatment, the awesome new 450 is now on auction. 100% of the proceeds will benefit The Kurt Caselli Foundation to protect and support the lives of off-road riders through a three-part mission that encompasses safety precautions for riders before, during and after their racing careers.

Il prossimo 7 novembre uscirà negli USA il film "On Any Sunday, The Next Chapter". Per promuoverlo, Red Bull Nord America ha commissionato a Roland Sands una special dedicata, qualcosa in grado di riportare all'originale classico "On Any Sunday" del 1971. In memoria di Kurt Caselli, il campione di offroad che ha perso la vita l’anno scorso durante la Baja 1000, è stato deciso che la moto, fornita da KTM Nord America, sarebbe stata trasformata in una "desert sled". Dopo il trattamento speciale RSD, la fantastica 450 è ora stata messa all’asta. Il 100% del ricavato andrà in beneficenza a favore della Fondazione Kurt Caselli per proteggere e sostenere la vita dei piloti di fuori strada, promuovendone e finanziandone la sicurezza prima, durante e dopo la loro carriera sportiva.
