Found this interesting, especially considering how it shows how the Penton/KTM has evolved.

Everyone, read the article.  It will give a new meaning to the term "gas stop" for those who have raced hare scrambles, enduros, trials, cross country, et.al. long races.

A fuel stop on this green machine will place you about 90 minutes behind, according to the specs. With 30 horsepower and stump-pulling torque you could actually out climb the gas version! I wonder if any credits are available since this an alternate fuel vehicle?
