My UFO plastic is factory perfect. I'm really impressed with how the new bikes are assembled. Like a jigsaw puzzle.

I live in MA as well so if you get a new one and you like the air fork and want to sell your CVs, let me know. I'm interested in trying a set on my 16 KX450.

I just finalized the deal on a 2016 450 with my local dealer, the bike will arrive in January! It will be my first brand new bike since my KXF 250 2010.

Finally got all my stuff in my hands and together.

UFO plastic seemed to bolt up nice apart from exhaust side, side panel seems a little stretch fit up over the pipe.

Either way im wrapped with it! This was the Ping 350 graphics with my twist on them printed by N-Style. Also shout out to Joe Carlino for sending me out the fmf KTM sticker.

Yea just the Aluminium can with the FMF KTM sticker for a better look, Stainless header too.
Couldn't justify Ti system after years of buying them.

The plans was to get the regular 2016 but they are sold out in Finland, you can't get them. So my dealer put an order on a FE and according to him it should arrive in January!

He said that there was no way for him to get a 2016 450 in January, he could only get the FE. And im so excited that i want to go to sleep now and wake up in January :D

The Finnish importer of UFO has a few sets of the stock colorway plastic kits but i'm going to wait for the all orange ones.

Hey guys, does anyone have time to do me a solid? My bike is in pieces and looking for the seat height if the bike is just on the ground, No stand or tiedowns just if you were holding the handle bar keeping and steady. Also an estimated handlebar height.

I'm thinking about making a bed over the bike in the van and want to see how much room I have. Also an estimated handlebar height. Thanks so much!

Is it possible to only buy the Akrapovic header and not the full system? The FE comes only with the slip on and i would like to get the header too. They have only the full system in the KTM catalog.

Anyone have suggestions on oil to sub in for the Motorex 10/50? My dealer has the 10/60, but I'm not sure if I should use it. I've bulk ordered 10/50 from Motosport but I'm still waiting for it to get here, and I'm at 10 hours. Any help is appreciated!
