I recently bought a 2016 150 SX from a guy and rode it for the first time yesterday. On the second lap this happened [photo below]... the exhaust flange broke.
After further inspection I think this was broken previously and poorly repaired with something like JB Weld by the previous owner (he didn't say anything about it). I thought I lucked out because that piece bolts onto the cylinder which means I could buy just a new exhaust flange rather than a whole new cylinder but after looking at the microfiche on Rocky Mountain it doesn't show a part number for this piece. The only way you can buy it is by getting an entire cylinder & piston kit which is $850
Does anyone have any experience with this? Know how to get just the part I need? It is a seperately cast piece so why would KTM not sell it as its own part?

Any luck on eBay?
Wonder if you could pick up another exhaust flange from ebay and cut out the portion you need to weld into
your unit?
