KTM Other description

1981 KTM 420 MC80


Freshly rebuilt from the ground up. This one is a rather special and purpose built racer. Everything on the bike is listed:

  • Nickel-plated frame/pegs/rear brake
  • Motor rebuilt. Clutch is one finger pull.
  • Fresh new plastic and professionally painted plastic tank
  • New seat cover
  • New pipe and rebuilt silencer
  • All new Magura controls
  • All new cables
  • New sprockets and chain
  • New tires front and back
  • New spokes in the rear
  • Very trick front end. Front forks are from a 1988 Honda CR250 (superb cartridge forks) with 1983 front wheel.
  • KTM Wirtz racing fat bars
  • New TM flat slide carb
  • Rebuilt Fox Factory shocks (extremely rare)
  • Nickel-plated kickstand and bracket

The bike runs perfect and shifts through all gears flawlessly. If you've ever wanted one of these this one has all of the hassle taken out of it. Rebuilt and ready to put on the track.

There are two tarnished areas with some light surface rust near the foot peg area on each side(shown in the pictures). Frame has been sitting for a while since it was plated.

Bike will only need a pair of foot peg return springs. to be 100% complete. 

I will not crate or disassemble the bike for shipping. Bike is ready for pickup at my location or I can deliver in the Washington DC area. Can also deliver to the York Swap Meet in January.

Overseas buyers you would be responsible for having the bike picked up, crated, and all paperwork taken care of.

Reserve is very fair for a bike this rare. If you are not serious about buying please don't bid.

2013 KTM Two-Stroke Off-Road Models Recalled for Throttle Defect

Tue, 23 Apr 2013

KTM has initiated a recall on 2013 two-stroke off-road motorcycles because of a problem with the throttle cable.  The models affected are the 125 EXC, 125 EXC Six Days, 125 SX, 150 SX, 150, XC, 200 EXC, 200 XC-W, 250 EXC, 250 EXC Six Days, 250 SX, 250 XC, 250 XC-W, 300 EXC, 300 EXC Six Days, 300 XC, 300 XC-W, 85 SX, and 85 SXS. According to KTM, the throttle cable on affected models can get pinched between the throttle cable wheel and the top of the throttle housing assembly. This flaw may result in the loss of throttle control, increasing the risk of a crash.
