Obviously the first difference is the "R" code. But other than that the bikes are pretty much the exact same motors. The "R" in the EXC-R stands for nothing more than Race. It is built to come straight from the showroom floor and put on the race track. I have two friends that have these 525's and they are phenomenal machines. Neither is the "R" model and I really do not think it matters. These things are serious torgue MONSTERS. I raced 125's for years and 250's for years on top of that. Now riding a crf450 and this 525 still has tons of power over my bike. Great machine. If you can handle the KTM fixes all the time.
