Title: Kens KTM 450 - 2006 Post by: Ken R on May 01, 2012, 10,25:23 AM Anybody who know this bikes first owner Wiggy and myself the second owner will confirm that this bike has been looked after. I have just fitted a new cam chain and rings.
The bike has all that is needed for serious trail riding including a KTM 13 ltr fuel tank and KTM seat to suit. It comes with the standard 8.5 ltr fuel tank, shrouds and seat all un-used. It is fitted with KTM 18 degree triple clamps to fix the original nervous handling and if you want the quick turning back there are the original triple clamps in the big box of bits. The big box is full with goodies like new clutch plates, chain guide slippers, gaskets, 8 oil filters, electrical bits, plastics, 3 air filters etc. If you are a little heavier than my svelt 75kgs there is a set of heavier fork and shock springs in the box as well. Wiggy fitted a JD Jetting kit and the carburation is spot on, easy starting, 200 ks on a tank in the bush, pulls like a tractor up hills and it will see off 450 Bergs and 510 Huskys hauling ass up the Bulla bitumin. It comes with all the hand books and a workshop manual. With new pads front and back, good tyres and chain and sprockets it's ready to go. Full rego till 14/10/2012 it's a steal at $5,750.

Only if you are screwing the throttle Kenny ;D ;) Title: Re: Kens KTM 450 - 2006 Post by: Ken R on May 02, 2012, 11,21:44 PM Rider skill gave a slight advantage ;), but really on the bitumin out of corners up hill the 450 was only a little slower than a Berg 570 and the Husky 510 behind was a latest model.
Like I said - the engine in this bike is a winner from trickling thru the bush, tractoring up hills or hauling ass real fast. It's all under control and at the command of your right hand, and all that with economy of 200ks out of 13 ltrs.

It was a husky 511 if it was a 510 the Berg would had a run for its moneyLike I said - the engine in this bike is a winner from trickling thru the bush, tractoring up hills or hauling ass real fast.
