[QUOTE="D Lafleur, post: 1306628, member: 27020"] Not to pick one brand over another, but my KTMs cost less per mile to run than my 250 2t jap bikes have. I dont get 7000 miles out of any of them, but I dont expect to. My RM 250s were good for about 500-600 miles on a topend and 2x that for the bottom end. At that time the RM gets completely new clutch, yes all the clutch, and shift drum and forks. My KTM 2t s tend to go a little further on the top end are a breeze to work on, and I have yet to ride one long enough to have to change a clutch basket for wear. I have had to change one or two that had close encounters with obstacles. The pricing for most parts are comparable, some things are cheaper on one side vs. the other. The old school thought of the KTM bike parts being much more expensive no longer holds water. You can pick a part that will be cheaper on a Jap bike vs. a Euro bike and I can find the opposite, however there are fewer CHEAP parts on the Euro bikes than the Jap bikes and I dont mean less expensive.
