Yes, This Is a One-Of-A-Kind KTM 450-Powered Antique Buggy

If you've spent any time in the past year hanging out in the motorcycle corner of the internet, you've probably seen a Matt Spears video or two by now. If he's not enduro riding his old Gold Wing, he's taking a Hayabusa to Moab just because he can.

A while back, Spears picked up an antique buggy on Facebook Marketplace (you know, as you do). We've had a small glimpse of it in a previous camping video, but it was always pretty clear that he had bigger plans in mind for the newest member of his fleet. And now, we're finally getting to see what those plans were. And are. And evermore shall be, maybe.

What's the plan? Apparently, it's taking the engine out of his KTM 450 and fabbing a frame, engine cradle, mounts, and much more to get it to power the buggy. And if you've got a whole lot of questions upon reading this written summary, don't worry; you'll probably see most (if not all) of them answered if you watch this video.
