78 KTM Parts
« on: June 01, 2011, 07:20:51 pm »
I am chasing any parts for my 78 KTM resto. If anyone has parts they want to get rid of/sell let me know as I am open to any parts.

What engine size?
Most parts from earlier models will fit and allot of parts from later models fit as well.
I just finished a 77 250 and most the parts I needed (and there were allot) came from Ebay. There are a few ebay shops that break down old KTM's.
Alan from pentonpartsusa-at-sbcglobal.net did have swing arm bearings and a few parts you can find new piston kits but there expensive.
Brad Lewis made me some parts Like a custom seat base but be prepared to wait as Brad has allot on. His Brother can make you a great pipe. I've been making a few parts like chain guide inserts and swingarm guides.
