Welcome to the site. :thumbsup:

Nice SX-F there. How'd it feel coming from a KX-F to the KTM?

felt wierd at first, but now im used to it the sxf has more power and handles better than the kxf. althought i find the sxf needs to be revved more.

i had a 08 144sx inbetween the kxf and sxf, that only lasted 3weeks then i went back 4stroke lol

Sweet. When I get a bike again one day it's most likely going to be an orange 250f or 450.

One question, what's the improvement of the SXS forks? I know they are KTM factory stuff but I would have thought they would put the best stuff on the stock bikes....??

Welcome to the chaos Ben...

I agree with Dizzle, that is a badazz looking bike. As an A class rider in GB, how far off are you from looking to ride the national series over there?

I'd imagine it's similar in England, just you know, slower. :lol:
