Handling
no problems all good news so im looking into one but not sure what to get a 250 or 450 ive riden Both in a honda and kawi but none of the KTM's yet.. so yea any ome got any advice..gonna be riden in the winter 2 oncei get some studed tires so yea but yea thanksDefinitely try and ride a couple. I rode the 525SX and a 200SX a couple years ago and they were a blast. They do tend to have that Euro handling which is a little different than the Japanese bikes, but you'll get used to it rather quickly. The 525 I rode was slimmer than my YZ, which made it a little difficult for me to grip, but I think they've changed the geometry of the bikes a little bit over the years, and I hear they've gotten most of the suspension bugs fixed. Definitely try and ride some and see what you think.,,,
Ktm problems
Guess I don't have to tell you water got in somewhere. Being a total loss, start big, like your ignition key. Get a can of WD40, and perhaps a can of electric contact cleaner, first squirt cleaner in, then follow up with WD40, work you way through your switches (good thing to do regularly as routine maintenance)
Of course check you fuses, however if one is blown, check things over before replacing it or it may blow out again and/or cause other problems. Spray all your connections and plugs, a good idea anytime. They take a lot of abuse and are exposed to the elements.
Did you pressure spray? If so you may have knocked some wires loose so look close.
Be sure your battery is charged, sometimes water can create a path and drain your battery.
Start here and report back if no luck.
Some rare instances, pressure spraying a hot motor, hot components can short them out.
I have a 2011 ktm 450 sx and it wont shift into 5 gear
A number of solutions possible here. 1. Check the oil level. If low, fill up.2. You can adjust the gear change lever which will give an extra movement. If this solves the problem then your gearing is wearing out.3. It is possible the 5th gear has dismounted from its shaft or is damaged. This is dependent on what happened in the first place when you lost the gear. Was there a loud banging noise? Was there a grinding noise? etc. If this is the case then you've got repair issues. Good Luck. George
Fully rebiult engine has good
assuming this is an electric start 4 stroke, is it winding over fast enough? Try put a set of jumper leads on it to make it wind over faster. I'm in New Zealand and the fuel here is ****. If my bike sits for more than a few days I drain the carb before trying to start it. Then I give one or two twists on the thottle and with one hand on the choke I push the start button without touching the thottle and as soon as it fires pull the choke out. After about 10 to 20 seconds push the choke back in and should be running fine. This seems to be the best way to start my bike.

Oil drain plug case cracked 2007 KTM 450 SXF
Drain oil. Use degreaser to clean area. Use JB Weld & allow to set up properly before adding oil.
