Hey vital, heres my ktm 250sx build. in addition to my kx500 build (1991 kx500) in the build section, this is my main bike. Just like my 500 build, it’s a budget theres no money tree in my backyard so nearly all of these parts were used from vital, ebay or wheel and dealed from other bikes. I flip and fix bikes with a buddy on the side for some extra cash to supplement my dirtbike addiction lol! Here’s a little bit of whats been done to it. The bike was bought new in October as a leftover and currently has 5 hours on it. I tore it down to the frame after an hour and had the frame powder coated orange. Of course the 18s come orange but the leftover price of $5999 versus an 18 at $7899, it was a no brainer.

(Yes the chain is a bit loose grinders broke at the moment I’ll have to take it to work)
-renthal 996 twinwalls
-tusk wheels laced to excel rims
-450 factory edition clamps
-fmf pipe/silencer
-acerbis skidplate
-chain and sprockets (factory edition rear)
-vforce reeds
-Michelin starcross 5 medium
-wp stiffer shock spring
-wp closed cartridge spring forks kashima coated uppers, tini lowers and anodized lugs
-tld mcqueen plastics with redbull graphics and backgrounds from 180 decals
-renthal grips with separate throttle tube (no odi)

It’s a solid bike. I’ll be doing more after I finish my kx500 build and probably convert it to a dungey replica. No titanium bling or anything crazy. Enjoy thanks for looking!

The blue on the KTM's sure looks good. How do those CC forks compare to the AER?

Thanks! Yeah I couldn’t let those legs go unnoticed, a little razor blade did the trick.

Thanks man! A place in the UK called Firefox for the tini and the Kashima was done in Japan.
