Repair lasted all day

good idea, I think I will carry some safety wire with me from now on in case something like this happens

I have a caliper mount from my 97 kdx if that would work
edit: you're using yamaha forks though...aren't you?

[Mr. Wibbens]

Thanks I gotta whole new caliper, and mount with brand new EBC pads for under $40 on ebay

[kdxmaniac]

is that broke piece off a ktm???!!! ktm,s are weak and prone to breaking! ...............just kidding!

if your bike wasnt an ancient dinasour, like mine are, stuff wouldnt break

[Julien D]

stuff always breaks. It just happens much more often when the bike is orange.

[Mr. Wibbens]

stuff usually falls off of KTM's

even the new ones

You don't even have to hit a fugging rock

I own both KTM and Kawasaki, and both have been incredibly reliable.

Actually my KTM has probably been one of the most trouble free dirt bikes I have ever owned. Of course I never skimp on maintenance either.

So far this little KDX 200 has been good to us too, but we really haven't put that many hours on it just yet. It sure is a fun bike to ride!

I know most people have a brand of choice and that's cool. I guess I'm just a dirt bike junkie, and love to ride any of them really.

Your KTM is an 07? They did get better. 2006+ seemed to really shape up. I have no love for the older KTM's though. Money pits.

[Mr. Wibbens]

Most KTM owners seem to be very loyal

Least up until something grenades in the motor
