oh p.s.do you know if the forks etc for the Blitz are upgraded compared to the Cuda?
being the blitz is water cooled and “high performance cam”, exhaust, tuned etc.
Um do you mean where is Menace from originally?
we’re not sure which galaxy the meteorite that brought him is from
:silly: :woohoo: :woohoo:he was living in the Seaford area, but recently relocated to a new abode.
so you will have him to log on to update his whereabouts.
he rides an 08? Kato “3hungy”.
the Cuda looks like the older xl/xr engine?
i doubt i could complain too much about it’s attributes when it costs all of $1100.00
>>Beats buyin a 2nd hand KLR 250
for double that price<<people used to laugh when i told them i would borrow my Bro’s 82 XL 250 to ride while i waited to get my full license.
i would tell them Not to laugh Too much! for a bike to perform so well with me on it, it had to be an Okay Bike!
it would haul my Fat ( . ) along at 100km/h :blink: and pulled awesome mono/ wheelies too! :woohoo:
so don’t judge a bike on cost, brand or age,>>Unless it’s a KLR 250
<< the proof is in the pudding, as they say.
We are truly sorry for your loss Mick!
we will bow our heads and have a minutes silence
so you can take a little time meditate on our condolences
and to reflect on the great life that was enjoyed by your beloved friend, mate and fishing companion.

>>>> Anyone know the song / sound track???<<<<<
i wanna see if i can get it from itunes.
Okay i’ve just got off the phone with Allan ( very nice bloke
) the boss man at Pivot Pegz, he called me and spent about 1/2 an hour of his lunch break clearing up a few confusing issues.-> my end not really his end :blush:they will take on board my suggestion of a foot note on their fitment chart! :woohoo: they will include a Foot/ side note that the pre 2002 build dated lc4 bikes can be fitted with pivot pegz with the addition of the alloy bracket from the 05 build bikes and will include the ktm part number they emailed me with.
Now here is how come i have had a mix up of sorts,
i bought my December 2001 build 640, which was sold as a 2002 model.
Pivot’s original chart stated their pegz fitted 2004 -2009= going by the year it was built not marketed as.
they have always based the years on their fitment chart going by the year of build stamped on the bike not what it is marketed as, ( as we know you can buy a 2010 model bike now but it is built in 09 :unsure: )
they have had previous customers buy the pegz and fitted them to an 03 and 02 lc4’s without any need to buy the afore mentioned “updated” mount bracket.
therefore Pivot had updated their chat to include the 2002 BUILT/Build date lc4 bikes.
Allan deduced that the 2001 Build bike were most likely on the cusp of the change to Female mount brackets on both sides of the frame.
so now you know as much as i do :laugh: 😆

Quote:that sucks arse tranny, is the new mount $125 with bolts and pin?yeah i don’t know yet, Boltons online price was for the mount only :unsure:
so i’d estimate about $70- 120 for bolts and pin through Boltons. however i’ll be calling suttos as for making my own mount, i thought it would be easier to buy a genuine one and COcopyUGH it for when it fails,
LC told us on the Snow ride he had broken his left side one and showed us how much it flexes just by pushing on it with your foot while standing beside the bike :dry:
yeah TB they changed the mounts in 05 by the looks of it to the same as what LC’s 625 SXC has, and all LC4’s since 05 have the same mounts through to the current 690’s.
i will order the alloy mount and fittings when the fun tickets are replenished :dry:
until then i’ll just have to ride with only the right one fitted :silly:
oh and i only posted this up as a point of interest, not saying i’ve been short changed or anything. or that i was sold something under false pretences or the like. :huh:
just something to keep in mind
Ooooookey i finally got round to fitting a new chain and sprokets, and clutch/ mirror perch, i was waiting for all these to turn up and fitted before i would fit the Pegz.
however i run into a problem, see i was somehow dreaming they had washers and “o”rings
for the peg pins, but after some PM’s to a patient Admin team memberhe first asked me what i was smoking
then assured me that there was no such thing with the Pivot Pegz :huh:
but yet it gets more interesting, i went to fit up the left Peg, and i run into another snag
the left peg is the opposite to the right peg. anyway after a phone call and some emails to the Good Folks at Battye’s
they suggested i talk to Pivot direct.and an email and call ( well voice mail, they must be a busy shop, which is a good thing) to Pivot Pegz HQ. i got the following email.
“Hi Andrew,
Thanks for your email.
Some LC4 models have two different footpeg mounting designs on the one frame
(the left side is a male design and the right side is a female design) and
this means that it is necessary to purchase the left side footpeg bracket
off a later model LC4 and bolt it onto your LC4 which will mean you will end
up with two female footpeg mounting designs and our Pivot Pegz (part #
PP-19MK2) for the later 2005 onwards model LC4’s will then fit your bike.The bracket you need to upgrade to is KTM part # 58403038100 FOOTREST
BRACKET LEFT ALU 05. The bracket is a genuine KTM aluminum footpeg bracket
from a 2005 640 Adventure and can be purchase via you local KTM dealer and
will fit your bike exactly. You will also need to purchase the bracket
mounting bolts and a left hand footpeg pin at the same time because the old
mounting bolts and footpeg pin are too short. Once you have fitted the new
bracket your bike will now have the same footpeg mounting design as the
2005-2009 LC4 and Pivot Pegz part # PP-19MK2 will fit perfectly.I hope this information is useful to you.
Thanks again for your email.
Kind Regards,
Catherine “
so maybe the next Bulk buy deal could include a note for pre 05 LC4 owners the will need to update their left hand mounting bracket bolts and peg pin.
i will suggest to the nice people at pivot they include a note on their fitment chart about the need to update the l/h peg mount.
as finding out after you have the Pegz and try :blush: to fit them you are up for an unexpected $125 for mount + whatever the bolts and pin are.
