I ended up winning B for the first time this year. I stopped for fuel about half way through and I swore the tank must have been nearly empty, it took forever to fill the tank. I can't wait to race it again this weekend.
Check your float height, KTM seems to set them too high quite often and you might be losing a lot of gas out the overflow.

congrats on the win too!
I did change the needle position and messed with the air screw and idle a little. Other than that, it's stock and I'm really enjoying it. It did take me a few corners to get used to not having engine breaking LOL
the ultimate solution is head mods or an aftermarket head with changeable domes, especially if you're anywhere above sea level. ...and if you want to run race fuel, along with a very small combustion chamber, your KTM will run very strong and be very consistent in the jetting department.
I run S3 cylinder heads (highest compression dome) on both of my XC's with the 250 SX ignition units and a 50/50 mix of VP110 and pump and they run so much cleaner, cooler, and faster than they did stock. This formula pretty much applies to all oem 2 strokes because they are tuned to avoid detonation, which is caused by the crummy pump fuels that are so prevalent.

I believe a lot of us were expecting to just see red and black over white for the new Husky look when all of this was in its early speculation. Going with the white, blue and yellow was brilliant - they look great.
Hey I'm curious and was talking to a buddy about this - how will this WHITE frame look in a few months I wonder?
I'm interested in the frame as well. My Dad has a red/white Husky with the white frame and it seems to be holding up well. I like the frame decals on mine and for the price I think they are worth buying a few sets a year; If it keeps the frame from getting scratched.
Time will tell, I have 3.2 hours on it, and with only 1 ride I don't have much experience with it. I'll report back with the jetting and other things after this weekend.
In a sea of orange, i'm glad to be on something different. In my group, there is 12 KTM's (two of the 4-strokes, the rest 300 2-strokes). It only made sense to go with something that was "KTM like" and 2-stroke.
Now throw a 3 gallon tank on her and you won't have to pit next time
Bitchin bro!
There have been some disscolouration ub by the stearing head where the owerflow house from the tank runs in to the frame, so i dont seem to lika fuel
Most of my riding buddies always say "I'd rather be too rich than too lean, so I always err to the side of rich". I don't agree with that at all - I'll skate the edge of lean; it doesn't bother me at all. You'll KNOW when you're too lean and many times, the air screw can fix that (if its cold in the morning, hot in the afternoon, etc).
I'm just saying, most people seem scared to go lean enough.
in Mexico, i was terrified of running too lean so i ran mine heavy on the rich side which meant using more gas. in St.George on my pre-run i was running the leaner jetting and got about 30-35mpg... in Mexico with my rich jetting, i was only getting 20-25... big problem when you're having to run 140 miles without stopping for fuel and running a 5 gallon tank.
as for me in my riding up here, i like to run a little lean, i like the way it runs in the mtns
Us 2t die hards love that stuff.
