    Until you see it you can’t grasp the problem I don’t think. This guy at Hattah must have found out the colour of adrenaline! (Brown!!)

    I may be off base, it could be setup, tyres or lord knows what else, but this KTM was the only one to do it that I saw.

    Well I know two parts of stuff-all about suspension and all that, but I was watching the TBAM DVD the other day – the Hattah Desert Race bit. A KTM went past the camera and Lo and Behold hit a square edged bump and the thing nearly threw the bloke fair over the bars. I guess this is what you mean about the PDS, eh BC? Never seen it before, but it looked nasty! Other bikes didn’t seem to have the same problem at this point in the track… by which I mean non-KTM’s. Just an observation… I’m not anti-KTM as such, but thought it was interesting, that’s all!:)

    I have seen it happen to- chasing my mate Dougy through the the Bush,he hit a square bump on his 08 300 EXC-e and it nearly pogo sticked him into the bush. I made him stop so we could have a play with his re-bound,which helped but still no cure. Bruce 4.1 Cortina – my very first car,memories,to much go for a 17 year old thats for sure:woohoo:

    Sounds like the episode I had with that tree trunk last weekend! Ben was behind me and he reckons my arse was a good 2 foot off the seat as I went bush!

    As for the very capable engines that KTMs build what’s the point of all that speed if you can’t control it, ahh a 4.1 litre Cortina springs to mind here:P .

    Control is overrated.
