I bought a new 2001 ktm 300exc in september.The dealer had 4 or 5 in stock.I got it for about $ 5,200 +tax & lic.I'm still playing with the jetting,so far the best I have come up with is 42 pilot,185 main,1367n #3 needle,as about 1 turn out.91 octane gas,40 to 1 bell ray synthetic.This seemed to work well this weekend up at Georgetown,Ca.Elevation was about 2500' to 4700'.temp was about 40 to 60 degrees.I had the clip in the #2 position but it seemed a little lean so I put it in #3 and it really made a big difference.I haven't ridden an 02 but I'm happy with what I have.
