I was wondering if anyone can tell me what battery the factory KTM guys are using in their bikes? If anyone gets to the pits and can get a picture I would appreciate it very much...Or if anyone is close in with them I would appreciate knowing if you get a chance to check it out.

Good timing for that question, GuyB just so happened to get a shot of one in tonights Pit Bits:



"The batteries that the Red Bull KTM team use for the electric start on their bikes are about half the size, and half the weight of the stockers. This one's on Ken Roczen's 250F"

Hey Oscottie thanks for that... The reason I asked is because the factory support KTM team JDR Motosports is using my companies batteries... Antigravity Batteries... so I was wondering if the factory guys were too. But no they are not... thanks for the post.

Thanks for the post up Scottie... I was asking because the factory supported KTM JDR Motosports team is using my company's batteries in their bikes (Antigravity Batteries) so I wanted to see if the factory guys were using them too... but they aren't oh well.

Photo was broken, probably due to the site all being re-coded, here it is again.
