Hi guys, I'm sick of bending standard YX kickstart levers, and was searching for a quality replacement, i,ve found a KTM 65 lever that looks really nice. Can anyone tell me if it will fit???



If not can anyone recommend a good one.



Thanks

Thanks Steve



Our Pitster dealer is in the US at the moment in Vegas. He is talking to Pitster about bringing them to the UK. I he can't then i will take you up on that offer mate.



Not got the V2 on yet, been pretty busy. But hoping to get it on in the next few days.



Does the TB piston bring the comp ratio up a lot? if so do you know what from and to?

just for the record my new 20 dollar kick start from egay is holding up just fine, it has tons of starts on it now and I still haven't done the kickback mod yet so my engine is still kicking back 1 of 7 times I start it, it a great starter, puts way more leverage on the kick so you don't have to go nutzzzzz

I got the same one you got in yesterday Tysonb. It is really nice, it is way heavier and better leverage. Plus it sways out to the side so you dont whack you ankle.



Do that mod Tysonb, it took me 20 min and it litterally feels like starting my 50 now. You could probably kick it with your hand, well maybe not if you have a bad shoulder... How is that doing anyway?

Shoulder is doing fine :) It's been four weeks and my buddy's been doing some thearpy on it I've been riding full out with no issues. The bone will always stick up a bit but who cares!!!!! LOL.



My parents are baby sitting the kids tonight so I'll be doing that mod when I get home then tearing it up on my track!
