Now uses DOT 4 Brake Fluid. No more hunting around for Mineral Oil. At least on the 2010 TC 250 I saw at Uptite.
No but I did notice that they have the same red hot start lever. I would think they would be the same. Another thing I noticed in the add of Cycle News, the TXC has the TE forks on it if I am not mistaken. Hard to tell from the photo and it could be just the photo bike being that way. We will know soon enough.
unlike the past where the TXC was based on the TC this years looks based on the TE with the EFI and suspension. Not sure this was a good move but time will tell. Still have not seen the TXC250 I'm supposed to get to test. i think there was a slight delay in shipping.
I can not tell a lie. I was out in the mountains in ca. on my 2004 TE450 my Hyd line came out and lost my oil. The only thing around was wesson cooking oil I bummed from a camper.. Works great.. I think the clutch feel is better. I have been using it in all my bikes for 5 years now.
and ike the KTM dilema of DOT 4 and DOT 4.1 fluid.........one would think "4 and 4.1 are close enough" NOT!
