    It is a KTM motor, don't they require more attention in that regard?

    Seems they set the intakes tight from the factory thinking they will loosen up after break in? Not sure but the first recommended valve check is at 1 hour...

    Never heard of such a thing. Buddies KTM 350 has been pretty solid.

    The KTM 450SX radiator hose that eliminates the thermostat came today so I installed it without any drama. I did find a cap at a auto parts store for the extra right side radiator output It seems like it will increase flow by a good margin. I only ran it on the road for a few mile to let the fluid level out so I can top it off and check for leaks. All checks good. I'll be leaving in the morning to rip it up for the next 9 days so when I get back I hope to have good news. I may check in with yawl one night next week while drinking a cold one if I can get some bandwidth in the great north woods. Wish me luck and I hope I don't haul my bike back in a bunch of melted blobs...LOL

    If it keeps running hot, just keep riding North until it cools off. ;) Have fun!
