PANACA, Nev. – Racing aboard the extreme KTM 790 ADVENTURE R RALLY, four-time Baja 1000 Champion and two-time Dakar competitor, Quinn Cody, earned himself and the KTM brand a spot in the AMA National Hare and Hound Championship history book as the first-ever winners of the series’ all-new Hooligan Open class, a four-round championship set to take place at the final four rounds of 2020.
 
Cody, who is also a member of KTM’s R&D team, was eager to showcase KTM’s limited-edition 790 ADVENTURE R RALLY in the inaugural running of the class, which was intended for 750cc and above offroad-forward street motorcycles. He got off to a great start in the race and maintained a lead throughout the entire loop, finishing 1:39 ahead of the second-place rider after nearly two hours of racing.
 
Quinn Cody: “It was great to get out and do some racing on the KTM 790 ADVENTURE R RALLY. The bike we raced is almost completely stock – aside from bars, grips and foot pegs – and it performed flawlessly.”

Another notable performance came from KTM Western Sales Manager, Ken Durr, who finished fourth in the Hooligan Open class aboard the KTM 790 ADVENTURE R RALLY.

Taking from the already incredible KTM 790 ADVENTURE R and adding the best suspension available from WP PRO COMPONENTS, the KTM 790 ADVENTURE R RALLY is an extreme mix of hardcore rally features and long-distance travel capability making it the most offroad-capable ADVENTURE bike in KTM’s lineup.

Round 2 of the four-race Hooligan Open Championship will take place on Saturday, September 26 at Little Sahara OHV in Utah. For more information on the series, please visit www.nationalhareandhound.com. For more information on KTM’s versatile lineup of ADVENTURE bikes, visit www.ktm.com.
