Don't worry... Once the custom graphics are made there will be plenty of green :-)

How are the ergonomics on the new KTMs?  I could never get comfortable on the earlier bikes like I could on my 2003-2004 KXs.

No idea...
The seat is like sitting on a broom stick lengthwise so that will definitely receive some attention  :lol:

That's no good.  I'm sure Guts or Enduro Engineering can help.  Hemis without the car just suck.   :-D

Here is a short vid to describe where we are at in the build.
This is part one.
There will be other parts but I have no idea how many.
Enjoy and laugh as it is live and unrehearsed  :-o

Nice job blaster, finally getting to ride mine. Doing the seat has been sweet for the old man sitting on it.

It's much simpler then that... It's a block off plate for the short body Air Striker carb.. No throttle position sensor  :-D

Seems a bit over engineered for a blanking plate  :-D

The ktm short body carbs dont have any TPS

Your right... I've been looking for a KTM carb at a reasonable price.
But I have this one in stock so why not.

Over engineered?
Lol... Agreed but I have to work at least to some degree with what the manufacture gave me to work with  :-o
