It’s brand new and I get to go thru the entire set-up and break in on my own & I won’t have to share it with EVERYONE-ELSE! 
If ya look close, you’ll see it’s simply stock with ODI McGrath bars and a set of Benny’s graphics. I’m gonna break it in, dial in the suspension, play with the maps and see how she feels as I put about 5-6 hours on her.
Then it’s off to Twisted Development for a box stock dyno run and after that we’ll start adding a few goodies. I’m going to stick to a product list that’s in-line with the Rocky Mountain ATV-MC Team sponsors since they’re my “KTM R&D Team” for all our carbon goodies (my company, CDG, makes various carbon items for this team and Rockstar Husqvarna).
Carbon-fiber Transponder and Instrumentation bracket “C’Lo 1”
Carbon-fiber Master Cylinder Guards “Brembo Works Clutch” & “Team Production Frt Brake”
These parts will be avail from CDG & ASV in the near future...along with some other goodies like a disc guard that’s actually a GUARD! (Like some of the thicker/tougher factory parts).
Notice that my bike ain’t got that stuff!
We’re just now developing ‘18-‘19 production stuff for Brembo (KTM/Husky) & Magura (‘19 Husky). Oh, and...did ya know you can buy the Brembo “Factory” Clutch Master cylinder? Ruh-Roh!
Well, it’s raining STUPID here and I won’t get to ride until Friday. I’ll start in here and take it to “Builds” when we start messing with things.

The Shop
KTM: 18 Factory Edition/‘19 SX-F & XC-F = Feb 2019
Husky: 18 Rockstar Edition/‘19 FC/FX same as above! (IF they get me the Magura CL master!)
I’m estimating $39 per side for Vital Members WITH a Racing License (yes, that’s how I play it!). If I have to explain why I want actual racers to have them first...well, then...where gonna need a few beers and some time to discuss these matters...
Previous years will be coming on-line there-after...& many will fit already...we just haven’t fit checked to be sure...yet.
The over-priced and NOT NEEDED Brembo Factory Master-Cylinder is “supposedly” available at KTM Hard Parts. Same goes for the cool looking brake components.
Hey, you know what? I -CAN- do that! But, I'm gonna a need some help form a guy...in Texas...Besides, he's already contributed a BETTER THAN NEW Gas Tank!
Pit Row
I have sold and given away soooo much of that year model stuff over the past 25 or so years. Never considered myself overly interested in the 250's, but always a 125 goober of the highest order! Now that I am old and fat and needing the 250 to haul me around I've started picking up a few things along the way again.
I think we have officially hijacked the thread. Might as well add 80 model porn! How is your 78/79 coming along FTE?
Ya know what? We're going to have to do this and we can take over a part of ML512's shop...and that way we can drag his young butt into all of this madness. His dad will be STOKED!
