I'm dumb. Y'all know it. So make me be less dumb. KDX? CRF? KTM?

[TheIglu]

Not sure what I need at this point. I'll have to climb over 4 other bikes to get to where I tossed all my dirt stuff last time I was done with it.

You spelled hoarder wrong.

Supposedly this was sprung for a 190lb'er. That's 20-30lbs more than me, so I may change out eventually. We'll see.


Got an FMF Gold series fatty pipe on it. She dribbles out the front. Might try to fix that eventually.


What ratio do you run for these things? I was warned not to run it rich on oil.

So what year/model is yours again?

XCW? This is just the straight XC....

I used to run 60:1 in my '11 xcw200, synthetic oil. It's what the manual said to use.

[breakdirt916]

Looks sick!!

[TheIglu]

Speaking of, I need to find the manual online. KTM's website for manuals allows me to select the year and type of bike, as well as region, but then just stops......

[nhbubba]

Derp, I meant I mix 60:1. Not 40:1. My bad.

I no longer need the manuals. Thanks random nameless internet person who shared it with me on GDrive!

Already printed out the jetting table for my bike.

[Chippertheripper]

The jetting table provided by ktm should be spot on, even with the fatty.
I had summer jets, and winter jets, that I put in below 40°f. I probably could've never switched from my summer jets.
I suspect you'll love this thing. The 08-09 black wheelers are my favorite looking orange bikes. ORANGE bikes.

[TheIglu]

Mine is white. Sob.

[TheIglu]

What synth oil do you guys use for pre-mix?

[Chippertheripper]

Spectro platinum sx
Never mind that it says 32/1 on the label. Mix it at your desired ratio.

[nhbubba]

I've been using Maxima Super M because it's SUPER.



That and Amazon ships it with da prime.

I can't believe the only orange on that motorbike is the parts that I'd have snapped off before the gosh darned thing was even unloaded from the truck.

you wouldve snapped the frame off before unloading?

...pretty funny, the bike he ended up with is almost exactly the same as the bike I posted for sale on here for 10 minutes before changing my mind. same year, 2 stroke, rekluse...only mine is a 250.

[TheIglu]

It's ok, now we both have toys.

[nhbubba]

Well, you see.

Didn't even notice the frame was orange. That's hot.
My frame is black.

Before you buy a simple replacement kickstand, make sure the threaded boss you screw into is still there. At least on the newer bikes, the boss is weak and breaks before the bolt through the kickstand lets go. I had to replace mine with a Pro Moto Billet model that mounts to 2 other points and is a fair amount stronger.

[csmutty]

I use amsoil dominator.

[Kurlon]

I was told Dominator if you're putt-putting, lower flash point so more likely to burn off than build up.

Bel-Ray H1R if using the loud control. Yamalube 2R in my sumo.

Good call...

Wait a second... Damn you haha!

[maxim_X]

AMSOil interceptor. I think all the major brands are good. AMSOil happens to be my current flavor.

[typeone]

other way around, Interceptor for putt-putting ... Dominator for volume at 11

i run Interceptor at 40:1 (woods machine)

Give her some perfume...castor 927!

D-oh, got my AMSOILs backwards.

[typeone]

D-oh, got my AMSOILs backwards.

tisk, tisk. it's general knowledge that the 473rd.9th compound structure is ultimately responsible for cleaner function under less conjunction junction at the third exhaust port release phase. something AMSOIL pushes in their marketing quite a bit, maybe too much so.

definitely not like you to miss this. everything OK?

[TheIglu]

I won't use Amsoil. If it's setup using the same marketing structure as Avon, I won't buy it.

Checked the gearing this morning. Running 14/40 by my rough on the way out the door with the dog count.
