Could this have been prevented with spring forks?
If they would have kept making the 200.....
Should not have changed their name.

All they had to do was put Sexton KYB edition forks in the KTM hard parts catalog.
🤣
I agree after all these years the amount of people you see that moan about the air forks you’d of thought they would of went back to spring a long time ago
Why would they?
People pay extra for air forks, then KTM gets to sell them cone valves. Good business model if you ask me.
My comment was totally not serious, much like the original.
Well mine was 😀
Yea everyone would like them too but that has zero to do with them being in this scenario.
....is bring back the 380
100% PDS
…bring back the Keihin carb.
So easy.
1. Sell motorcycles.
2. Spend less money.
I would do just about anything to get one of these 125s.
I've been saying for 2 years that I won't buy another KTM until they come with spring forks. Probably going Yamaha next time for the suspension. At least Stark got it right with brembo/kyb, and setting it up for the riders weight.
Pit Row
So KTM needs to buy Stark?
😃…….get rid of that plastic adjuster on the rear shock!
I think motocross action mentions that in every single review…
You read it here first. 2025 Factory Edition. KYB.
Ridiculous, I know. But 6500s would be viable!
The fe models usually get announced in the next week or two. Be curious of they still are on that same timeline.
We need this type of innovative and outside-of-the-box thinking. You start Monday.
Might as well bury themselves deeper.
My point is if Stark can offer a bike with brembo, and kyb set up for the riders weight, why can't the most expensive gas bikes offer the same options? I've bought 4 ktmish bikes in the past 4 years. Once our 23 models are outgrown or worn-out we'll probably be switching to Yamaha simply because they're cheaper and have better suspension. I'm tired of wasting too much money on forks. Buying the most expensive bikes and then dumping a ton of money into the forks is financially retarded. I'm tired of being a Moran.
I guess continuing to produce 2-strokes isn't the key to success..
they could do everything but offer the correct spring rate for customers without breaking a sweat.

Should have kept this to yourself. The value of your 23's just went down.😗
BTW, I just can't find the best Sarcasm Emoji.🤧🙄😁🙃🙄🤡🖕🙎♂️........ I think we need a poll. Just so some folk don't get too worked up over comments made. 🤪
Same here. Yamaha or beta will be getting my money soon.
The other way round, Stark needs to buy KTM, then they won't have any opposition from the FIM racing Vargs in Pro races.
The air forks have gotten a lot better. A little bit more R&D and they will be just as good or better, lighter more adjustable.and cheeper. A lot of pros are running air or air assist forks
