KTM Other description

1981 KTM 420 MC80


Freshly rebuilt from the ground up. This one is a rather special and purpose built racer. Everything on the bike is listed:

  • Nickel-plated frame/pegs/rear brake
  • Motor rebuilt. Clutch is one finger pull.
  • Fresh new plastic and professionally painted plastic tank
  • New seat cover
  • New pipe and rebuilt silencer
  • All new Magura controls
  • All new cables
  • New sprockets and chain
  • New tires front and back
  • New spokes in the rear
  • Very trick front end. Front forks are from a 1988 Honda CR250 (superb cartridge forks) with 1983 front wheel.
  • KTM Wirtz racing fat bars
  • New TM flat slide carb
  • Rebuilt Fox Factory shocks (extremely rare)
  • Nickel-plated kickstand and bracket

The bike runs perfect and shifts through all gears flawlessly. If you've ever wanted one of these this one has all of the hassle taken out of it. Rebuilt and ready to put on the track.

There are two tarnished areas with some light surface rust near the foot peg area on each side(shown in the pictures). Frame has been sitting for a while since it was plated.

Bike will only need a pair of foot peg return springs. to be 100% complete. 

I will not crate or disassemble the bike for shipping. Bike is ready for pickup at my location or I can deliver in the Washington DC area. Can also deliver to the York Swap Meet in January.

Overseas buyers you would be responsible for having the bike picked up, crated, and all paperwork taken care of.

Reserve is very fair for a bike this rare. If you are not serious about buying please don't bid.

KTM Developing Faired and Touring Versions of 390 Duke

Mon, 03 Dec 2012

KTM has carved out a niche recently in the small-displacement streetbike market with its Duke lineup of naked motorcycles. First came the 125 Duke, then the 200 Duke, and more recently unveiled at EICMA, the 390 Duke, which we hope will be the first in the family to make it to the U.S. All three little Dukes have similar chassis and streetfighter styling, with the engine displacement being the main difference between them.

The Differences Between KTM’s Duke Engines

Fri, 25 Jan 2013

KTM set a new company record with 107,142 motorcycles sold in 2012, with a lot of credit given to strong demand for its small-displacement naked Duke line. The 125 Duke and 200 Duke have been popular sellers in Europe while Indian consumers accounted for more than 8000 units of the 200 Duke alone. KTM will try to maintain its momentum with its new 390 Duke, not to mention the 690 Duke R and the upcoming 1290 Super Duke R which was unveiled in prototype form at the 2012 EICMA show in Milan as the eventual successor to the 990 Super Duke.
