why didnt they run a push button to the handle bars?

Yes it does. I haven't dyno'd my quad yet but others have said its noticeable when riding. I always have mine unplugged. You can buy a switch from KTM to mount on the bars.

Just out of curiosity, what is that and how does it work?

Posted by: woodsracer144

the curve is how your power is placed out. like a low end mid and top end... i like the low end becuase im in the woods alot but with the vortex X10 you have a ton of choices to choose from and you can change it as you ride, have it on the low when your in the tight woods, on the high on a open feild...

hey pat, how long have you been racing the D23 hairscrambles? im gonna be doin them this year as well... what class are you running?

I've only ran once. I've raced mostly dirttrack. I'm hoping to do more harescrambles though. I ran A class at the race last year.

I went to Iowa last month for an XC race. My KTM runs great. I've had absolutely no problems. If you beat the crap out of your stuff and don't maintain it then it will crap out on ya.

I ran Vet 30+ in Iowa. Not sure what I'll run if I do any D23 harescrambles this year.
