When you ride a KTM, you sort of hold your breath in the hope it gets through the day, just like all other riders out for the day, Then you grin when it does get through, Just like other riders,.After a few beers you hang shit on your mates bikes, just like they are.

So at the end of the day, you were just confused, like your mates…That didnt buy the HUSKY. :laugh: :cheer: :woohoo: :woohoo: :kiss:

Confused is your word for the day:laugh:

yes the collapsible needle affair, yes i had one of them which in effect made the bike slightly less prone to launching me over the bars on mid-sized sharp obstacles….slightly.

When you ride a KTM i know they are easy to sell.
When you ride a KTM “steering” is a term used loosely
When you ride a KTM you must maintain 100% concentration at all times
When you ride a KTM councils keep trying to hire you to do traffic control.

Easy to sell…everyone likes and want them…Hard to sell…everyone hates them??????
Steering Loosely…from one who goes over the bars , I would suggest “Holding on”
100 % Concentration whilst riding….Yes its a good thing…..Maybe you should try sleeping or getting your self checked for A.D.D. , wait up its a yamaha , you are being lulled into boredom
Council wants to hire you….where the fuck do you ride . the nature strips and roundabouts, I bet you do that to stay close to the bike shop for your linkage parts

Blue,Blue,Blue,Blue,
What are we to do
Make lots of fun of you
Blue,Blue,Blue,Blue,
You ride a heap of poo
you dont know why you do
Poor Blue,:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

spot on Moto
PDS $80 to replace moving parts and 15min install time start to finish linkage hmmm $300+ 2hrs and a six pack later it still has movement because the bushes were a extra $130

An “F” bush every 6 months makes up for the linkage bearing every few years for me,

but with a linkage you can also lower the bike with the exchange of one part for another Woohoo:cheer: .

When you ride a KTM you are usually over 35 yrs old
When you ride a ktm you aren’t realising your full riding experience.
When you ride a KTM you make some else richer.
When you ride a KTM you truly can boast you are on an expensive european machine.
When you ride a KTM chances are someelse is riding your missus.

all TIG, all the time

Blue Blue My friend, yes you are right again , over 35 years old do have the brains to make a discerning decision, hence not some wee willy wanker wanting whatever, You are right also about making someone richer, of course when you buy a Jap machine no-one gets money from that cause they know how much you are going to have to spend on linkages and they give them away, and yes you can truly boast you are on an expensive European Machine…….Great One Captain Obvious….This last point you know I give you Balls for bringing that one up, Your Missus loves you having a blue bike , that means she can invite the whole footy team over because she know there are better than fair odds you will fall or break down and she has time for them all …twice over…couldn’t happen with a KTM Owner as you said she only has time for one because we are so fast on our dirt bikes and we never break down…..one other little orange secret is we get the names of the yamaha riders wives and we love footy

as the name suggests add your 2 pennies worth to this heading

When you ride a KTM…..
Do you feel superior?
Do you always find yourself on the ground lying under the bike for no particular reason?
Do you get sick of trying to coordinate the colour scheme?
Do you feel like one of the “in” crowd
Do you honestly believe PDS works as well as linkage systems?

feel free to detract or defend

lets do the numbers

My Good friends when you ride a KTM it is EVERYONE ELSE that have things to worry about, because , yes Mr Blue you several good points you raised, I repeat them for you, Yes we are superior, we have shown the brains to ride a good bike, I only find myself on the ground when other blue bikes are stopped because they are scared to go further on, color co-ordination is everyones camp these days get with Blue boy, I bet you ride with an open faced helmet as well, and we only fell like we are in the in crowd when we go to any off road event anywhere in the world, and a small word onj the PDS bush, Mate when the shit is sorted why would you need 3000 linkages to do it, get with the new program, its called “Riding a bike that works well”

As long as I am up front who cares:ohmy:

Yes rain would be good but do you think it is coming

I have run the ATF in all the 2-strokers I have owned for the last 25-30 years, I also run the stuff through both of my boys race bikes for the last 5 years and will continue to do so, my thinking is like mentioned by Mr Blue, its better to change it regularly a little early, rather than running a “BRAND” name oil and using it to the Max or more, even saying “its good oil, its the best so it can handle one more ride”,that one more ride with sh@t oil will do 5 rides damage, so I buy the no name ATF suitable for ya car, and change the bikes oil after 5 – 10 liters of fuel burned (depending on the bikes engine size)and I dont have clutch or gearbox issues.
The problem clutches in the KTM 50’s always come from guys not doing regular oil changes, I know , I fix em, I know an auto 50 is not the same as a bigger geared bike , but the scenario is same same, just different revs and forces involved, the wearing surfaces of the clutches are the same, the bearings and gears are the same, ATF will handle these stresses and more, it will work no dramas for all two strokers, but you need to change the oil very very regularly,

A Honda rider, a KTM rider and a Yamaha rider were all in Saudi Arabia, sharing a smuggled crate of booze after a long day’s ride. All of a sudden Saudi police rushed in and arrested them, impounding their bikes in the process. The mere possession of alcohol is a severe offense in Saudi Arabia, so for the terrible crime of actually being caught consuming the booze, they were sentenced to death! However, after many months and with the help of very good lawyers, they were able to successfully appeal their sentence down to life imprisonment.

By a stroke of luck, it was a Saudi national holiday the day their trial finished, and the extremely benevolent Sheik decided they could be released after receiving just 20 lashes each of the whip. As they were preparing for their punishment, the Sheik suddenly said: “It’s my first wife’s birthday today, and she has asked me to allow each of you one wish before your whipping.”

The Yamaha rider was first in line (he had drunk a six pack), so he thought about this for a while and then said: “Please tie a pillow to my back.” This was done, but the pillow only lasted 10 lashes before the whip went through. The Yamaha rider had to be carried away bleeding and crying with pain when the punishment was done.

The Honda rider was next up (he almost finished an entire stubby by himself!!), and after watching the scene, said: “All Right! Please fix two pillows on my back.” But even two pillows could only take 15 lashes before the whip went through. The Honda rider had to be carried away bleeding from the arse and crying with pain when the punishment was done.

The KTM rider was the last one up (he had drunk the rest), but before he could say anything, the Sheik turned to him and said: “You ride a KTM. You support the greatest motorcycle producer in the world. I myself ride a 530 and have many EXC’s in my fleet. For this, you may have two wishes!”

“Thanks, your most Royal highness”, the Ktm rider replies. “In recognition of your kindness, my first wish is that you give me not 20, but 100 lashes!” (KTM rider are tuff)

“Not only are you an honorable and powerful man, you are also very brave” the Sheik says with an admiring look on his face.

“If 100 lashes is what you desire, then so be it. And your second wish? What is it to be?” the Sheik asks.

“Tie the Honda rider to my back.” The KTM rider replied.

This is so so disturbing on so many levels,
KTM riders get drunk
Want a honda rider tied to their back, presumbably in “the” position
Then they want the honda rider to be whipped!!!

Mmmmm this is a new form of deviancy even further out there than that of Motos.

So glad I am a yamaha rider in all this.

Mr Blue

we should get Menace onto blue next, Dan….dont you think
