Anybody know of any tricks for getting gas to flow back through the fuel hoses after taking them off to inspect them?
 
Hmmmm....Do you own A ktm?....You shouldn't have to do anything,the carb should suck fuel right back through when you go to start the engine.
 
A KTM eh?The orange haired,left-handed step-child of Husaberg.Ok,the first thing you want to do is sell it and buy a Berg,then...oh,wait,what forum is this again?:laugh: ;)
 
Thats awsome!!! I race 250B and College Boy.......mind u im only 21. I used to race 125B, but around here, there's alot of outta control squids in that class. And there's a boat load of riders in the class, where as 250B has half that...if not less.

The best thing to do in our series is skip from the C class straight to A because the B class is full of wanna bees that think they are too fast for the C class,but know they will get their ass kicked in the A classes...They guys that are winning the B classes in the two different series that I run are usually sandbaging....In short....The top five will usually lap the rest of the field...I'm old enough to race the Vet-A and Vet-Pro classes...People think we are just a bunch of slow old guys....Until they try to start on our line.I was forced into the Pro class in 05' because I won the Vet-A championship...I'm trying to sandbag my way back down just because I'm just trying to have fun at it these days...I'll be riding Suzuki's in 08'.
 
FYI Kronreif Trunkenpolz Matigofen owns Husaberg.

Er...thats Mattighoffen;) Actually,the same holding company that owns KTM also owns Husaberg and Polaris.Husaberg has it's own set of engineers that answer to the KTM honchos.KTM acquired Husaberg to get their fourstroke engine design on the early RFS engines although that has all changed now.Husaberg of late has become somewhat of a test bed for KTM where they can test new ideas in a smaller market with a less company reputation damaging potential should they not work out.You would think I'd know who made my bike by the "KTM Sportmotorcycle" stamped on the steering head or the fact that all my parts come in KTM boxes:laugh: I like KTM's,I've had an EXC and SX both-I was just yanking Katooms chain a little bit-no offence intended.TZ's a nice bike BTW, the mechanic at the local Berg shop races one.:)

BTW, both my KTM's were two strokes and to date I had better luck at the local hare scrambles on those than the Berg.I love the bike but the last scramble I went down in a rock pile and over a bank.By the time I got it back out I'd overheated and puked out all my coolant.The moral of the story is,don't fall down!

Funny how it goes isn't it.I much preferred my modified SX for woods riding/racing as compared to my exc-including suspension although I had it revalved.When you told people this they just looked at you like you had two heads.How about a pic of the RMZ when you get it done?Zooks were always my favorite Japanese:clap:
