Title: KTM Mx250 73/74
Post by: mike1948 on March 06, 2008, 06:34:05 pm
Anyone out there seen any of these floating around?  I had one from new, found it to be fast, and easy to ride.  Sold it to a young kid when I got married, instead of storing it away in my shed(FOOL!)  The things we do.  One was featured in VMX a while ago, same model, biggest barrel finning in the world, could have fitted a 750 single in there.
Just trying to relive my youth.

Very pretty indeed.  But not complete without a leather jockstrap holding the tank on.

Agree mike, leather jockstrap is nice touch.  As a comment, i see some of the parts manuals etc had two cables holding the tank on a 74 model, anyone know what the story was? KTM just thought they would try something different?
