Donna asks… How can i tune my 2007 ktm 200xc to a motocross ride?I am 190 lbs and my ktm200xc is stock and i want to race motocross, but this bike is used for enduro, motocross, trails, can i get some tips on what i should do?
Chip answers:The XC has a wide ratio gear box compared to the SX bike. The suspension would need to be stiffer with springs that have a higher spring rate and possibly use heavier oil in the forks. There might be some engine tuning mods like a different pipe, changing the jetting and opening up (cutting holes) in the air box. These will make the bike accelerate more quickly but narrow the power band. The wide ratio transmission might become a liability with the narrow power band. You might just go and race it “as is” to see how much you really like competitive riding. Then you might want make some changes to the bike. If you continue to race for couple of seasons, then you could buy an SX or other motocross bike.
Paul asks… How much is my KTM Dirt bike worth?I have a 2001 250SX KTM 2 stroke. The bike has rust from sitting outside, it needs new rings and a fatty pipe. It has new back tires, new wheel barrings, and a new hydraulic clutch lever. A lot of the parts are aftermarket which should bring the price up somewhat, I would think. IT was an awesome bike though and I just want to make sure I am asking a fair price to both the buyer and myself. Thanks for any answers!
Chip answers:Good luck.
Susan asks… What is the compression supposed to be on a KTM 300mx?I ran a compression test on my bike and its about 40. I just need to know what it is supposed to be. KTM 300mx (2-stroke).
Chip answers:How many kicks / strokes did you do to get the 40??? Minimum 125 psi (time for a top end then) … Proper pressure after 5 kicks should be in the 175-190 psi range on fresh top end for that bike. Make sure to either push the kill button or ground the plug to the engine while kicking it over, or you could damage your CDI unit…
William asks… How do I uncork the exhaust and rejet the carb on a KTM 525EXC Street Legal?2007 in southern california. Is there a mechanic in the Inland Empire than can do the work?
Chip answers:You may want to consider buying an aftermarket exhaust system, it doesn’t have to be very expensive . You can find them online, or order yourself a Dennis Kirk catalouge and browse on your leasurely time.
Sandra asks… how much does a ktm adventure 990 and its R variant cost on average?I can’t seem to find an online price for the ktm 990 adventure, perhaps a few owners would like to disclose the price? Thanks in advance – Youbh Abdullah Hasyim GRRR!!

Zune and iPod: Most people compare the Zune to the Touch, but after seeing how slim and surprisingly small and light it is,lv bags I consider it to be a rather unique hybrid that combines qualities of both the Touch and the Nano. It’s very colorful and lovely OLED screen is slightly smaller than the touch screen, but the player itself feels quite a bit smaller and lighter. It weighs about 2/3 as much, and is noticeably smaller in width and height, while being just a hair thicker.

The Zune concentrates on being a Portable Media Player. Not a web browser. Not a game machine. Maybe in the future it’ll do even better in those areas, but for now it’s a fantastic way to organize and listen to your music and videos,ugg outlet online and is without peer in that regard. The iPod’s strengths are its web browsing and apps. If those sound more compelling, perhaps it is your best choice.

Hands down, Apple’s app store wins by a mile. It’s a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans,louis vuitton sale especially in the realm of games, but I’m not sure I’d want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.

If you’re still on the fence: grab your favorite earphones, head down to a Best Buy and ask to plug them into a Zune then an iPod and see which one sounds better to you,coach outlet and which interface makes you smile more. Then you’ll know which is right for you.

This is getting a bit more subjective, but I much prefer the Zune Marketplace. The interface is colorful, has more flair, and some cool features like ‘Mixview’ ugg boots outlet that let you quickly see related albums, songs, or other users related to what you’re listening to. Clicking on one of those will center on that item, and another set of “neighbors” will come into view, allowing you to navigate around exploring by similar artists, songs, or users. Speaking of users, the Zune “Social” is also great fun, letting you find others with shared tastes and becoming friends with them. You then can listen to a playlist created based on an amalgamation of what all your friends are listening to, which is also enjoyable. Those concerned with privacy will be relieved to know you can prevent the public from seeing your personal listening habits if you so choose.
