    Very solid quad you will not be dissappointed. Great motor, great frame, great tranny/clutch. The thing is truely built for racing youll be more than happy with it. And yes KTM takes care of its customers unlike the other brands. Check out www.KTMATVHQ.com for more info. You'll get a better response there.

    Quads are very very solid! Like said, they can be a bit more expensive to fix oem but they are very solid and you wont have to make it to the dealer very often! Also makes unreal hp once uncorked and piped...

    when my buddys crank let go (xc )( 2nd year of racing) i guess close to 3-5 grand for everything not sure if thats whats normal. his rear brake caliper caught fire and the rear brake line would be $275 and his caliper was gonna be close to 900..but i guess if they are supposed to more bullet proof i guess you get what you pay for. the only problem he has had with xc is the swingarm bushings wea and are a pain in arse to replace. he said the fact that the axle bearings are tapered are damn near bullett proof
