Sheared mine off - the 'pedal' is fine and I drilled out the rivets. I've heard of people using KTM bolt-on replacements, but I really don't want any KTM parts on my bike Any thoughts? Thanks - Chad
Just installed this ZipTy one, see below, takes a little project work but comes out real good. I have not used it yet (bike is still in work). The fix to the OEM pedal is to have the inside of the triangle pedal welded, I have a couple of those is the spares bin. I have sheared 2 and partially sheared 1 (re-welded) and have had 2 new ones welded before installation, between my 06 and 08 450s. The tip seems to be designed as a sacrificial piece with its light welding, because you can still use the brake with no pedal in a pinch, done that to continue ride. The ones I replaced after welding the tips had the entire brake pedal arm twisted back from catching on rocks (almost DNF issue), I am sure it would have just sheared the tip with the OEM weld job (which is a no DNF issue). http://www.ziptyracing.com/search.aspx?make=MTAyMQ==&model=MTA4OA==&year=MTAzMA==&search=husqvarna
Believe it or not I sheared that thing off in Kennedy meadows probably a year-and-a-half ago and have been using a piece of wood attached to the break pedal via a couple of hose-clamps ever since.... I was greasing all my pivots & bearings last night and figured it was time to replace it with some hardware...
I sure hope so... I've only been out twice since I've been back stateside and they've both been solo forays to try and shake the cobwebs loose.... Since then the X & TE have both been in pieces on the garage floor. I need to get out and put some miles on - my CV is shot
No KTM parts on your bike ? I've got a lower KTM guide instead of the roller, works great. What ever works with less maintenance
