took out the ktm today to brixton motox track. spent the day getting done by kids on corners on PY80s and then shitting past them and chucking a load of mud in their faces on the straights.
then having the same done to me by some other people on proper sized bikes. then chasing them, and having to very quickly learn how to jump. falling off. getting run over.

i had the biggest engined bike there, and probably have the least experience of offroad riding which is pretty shit, riding around in full road gear.

first impressions?

Cool


that is all.

lost both my levers so had to go home after 4 hours Sad

Try loosening the clamps on the lever perches so they are only just tight enough not to move on their own, but dropping the bike they can twist round instead of snapping the levers.

strangely they didnt come off when i did.
the brake lever must have rattled off as i just went to reach for the brake and was like 'oh'.

clutch lever did pretty much the same but one of the hoops in it broke and the pin fell out. i didnt drop it on that side.
