According to the Husky website, the billet triples are supposed to provide a better uniform clamping area onto the fork tubes. A quote from the Husqvarna website--> "The stylish triple clamps combine looks with function and deliver maximum feedback to the rider under braking, in rough terrain and on jumps, relaying accurate information on the behaviour of the front end in every situation, increasing rider confidence. The R&D department’s efforts were focused on ensuring uniform clamping of the fork legs in order to distribute the forces evenly, maintaining the leg shape, and thus proper damping along the entire stroke."
I am not that talented of a rider to realize the difference between the cast and billet versions and the concept is typical KTM advertising from what I can tell.

Here is the description from KTM site of cast clamps.
TRIPLE CLAMPS

The triple clamps have been specifically designed for enduro use and ensure precise handling thanks to their supporting of the fork flex. The rider receives precise feedback from the front wheel, even in the toughest terrain, thereby increasing riding safety and speed.

I'm not very talented, but my hands and wrists are quite hammered from lifetime of physical work. This past Winter, arthritis in my thumbs really became a problem. Flexx Bars, Boyesen Flex Grip on the left side and dual compound grips are the program for me. Anything else that helps the front end work in the roots, rocks and hack we ride all the time, is quite a welcome addition. The fact that I'm slower and less talented makes it more of an issue, as I ride over stuff, the fast guys fly over...

From my understanding cast would be more flexible providing less feedback. I may be wrong.

It all depends on what type of fork oil you are running...Haha JK. This is how KTM advertises little nuances from year to year making it seem like a huge deal and a must have item. I really like how they update a bearing or something in an engine and make it sound as if the previous year version is garbage compared to the new "must have" version. Advertising. SP is good at it.

When KTM first put billet clamps XC models, they had 3 bolts on the lower. In ECEA Series, when KTM XC riders rode an enduro that was a "Rock Run", they would remove the lower third bolt from their clamps. They thought that this made them "feel" better in the rocks. KTM went to a 2 bolt lower at some point, because of this.

FYI fact is, some of the more sensitive top tier racers can even tell feel differences when the crew chief rounds the edges of their machined billet triples.

The fast guys I ride with all admit the linkage smokes the PDS and these guys actually are very, very good racers, north east nasty rocks and roots think Unadilla GNCC, and most have a number one plate on the wall or two, like myself. In the past they laughed at me when I said PDS sucked because we race rocks one weekend then BIG sand whoops down the shore in jersey the next weekend, the PDS won't do both, linkage will. They do say the stock 2014 KTM XC fork is the worst ever but that's another on going post for another time. Think Huskie, jet it, Bark Busters, put gas in the tank and go have fun. I know suspension Gurus who won't even revalve the fork as they are that good stock. I tested a new Huskie in the rocks and was very impressed.
