After looking at the sneak peaks of the '14 Husky's on the homepage, it struck me that someone could make a few bucks offering hardware replacement kits for their fasteners.

Really, Husky, torx head bolts on everything? KTM abandoned allen head screws years ago in favor of the more mainstream 8mm head bolts.

Start sourcing now- you'll want these kits available when the bikes hit the shores.

That's new to me (concerning Huskys). Every bolts on my 2010 WR125 are 8mm hex head bolts. But if you look closer you'll see the bolts are both torx and hex head bolts, not sure it's only one size though...

No, that's how some OEM KTM hardware is. it isn't "torx-only", but torx-head on the inside and 8mm hex around that. Either or.

My subframe bolts are T45-only (which I do not like), but most is just 8mm, or Torx & 8mm
