Decent looking 125sx in Crossnore, NC. Not close but not terribly far away from you.

Still looking, fellas. Someone here in NC had one and he's on Vital but it was the two week period where my Wife broke her foot and it just wasn't a good time. Sad

Let me know if see anything, guys. Thanks.

Still searching. There are a few out there for sure but most are beat to death. And those that aren't, people are asking ridiculous amounts. Thought I had one but it actually was bad timing right when my Wife had some health issues. She's fine, thankfully, but wasn't able to make that deal happen.

So anyway, long story short. Still looking!

The 03 made more horsepower but honestly that's not why I want it. I am looking to do a Jeremy McGrath KTM replica build. And that would mean a 2003 250SX. I have the ORIGINAL graphics so that is a huge bonus. I'm never parting with those. But finding a clean bike has been a challenge. And I'm not that mechanical. I have a buddy that works on stuff but looking the cleanest possible platform to build off of.

Well, I wasn't exactly looking to sell... as I just recently started going riding with some friends, but it's been a long time since I've actively ridden (frequently) other than the occasional trail session with friends - and I suppose what you'd do with it seems a lot more cool than what I've been doing with it.

I suppose I should bite the bullet - but I don't even know if this is as clean as you're looking for.

2003 KTM 250sx - it doesn't have the stock pipe or silencer (Pro Circuit Works and KTM hardparts silencer)

The handguards would not come with the bike as those have been spoken for if I ever part with her (and from the sounds of it you don't want them anyway).

I'm a huge McGrath fan - so it would be cool to see this become that... but again - no idea if this is as clean as you want. Runs great.

Anyway, here's a couple pics. Let me know if you're interested in seeing more.

KTM 03 250 SX.New pro taper bars, clutch disks & basket, water pump, carb rebuild, has FMF gnarly pipe, MSR bark busters. Is pushing around 55 hp. It's very fast all work done by KTM mechanic in Crocker Mo.

It would depend on how clean it is. And preferably close to stock.

I believe your years are mixed up friend.

That's not a 2003.

I know its been a while, but i have a 2003 250SX which i've owned since 2007. Barely ridden, raced 3 times in 2011, and once last year in a father/son ride.

Still looking for 2003 KTM 250SX? Currently own exact model. Completely stock. Ridden only on private property. Low time/miles on the motor. Has not been ridden in a long time. Located in western North Carolina.
