KTM Noobie Question, looking at getting a 525EXC

[QUOTE="YFZRob, post: 1057514, member: 62663"] Yeah, but there's just not enough aftermarket yet for the Huskys. Aftermarket parts for the KTM are just as popular as any Jap bike, so expensive factory replacement parts aren't a concern unless I brake things that aren't reproduced in the aftermarket. I really like the crazy high HP thumpers that Husky has though. If turn signals were a requirement here in FL, I'd be swayed more that way, but a mirror, horn, and brake light switch is so minimal that I won't ever feel the need to remove it when I'm doing dirt only riding. Turn signals are a requirement in FL but only if the bike was originally equipped with them, otherwise hand signals are sufficient :nod: :boss: 2-3 weeks before a 525EXC is mine :) :). My only issue is that I hate four strokes....mainly due to the expensive maintenance....at least this motor should have more durability than a 450 MXer. I also hate how they overheat in low speed riding. Here in 90 degree Florida summer heat, I am going to probably have issues w/ the KTM and start to wish I had the cool running RM250 still. I'd rather foul plugs by idling and farting around too long than overheating and puking out coolant. [/QUOTE]
