Just saving one for sale with info.   Just in case it helps folks with ideas etc.

1991 KTM 250 hotsaw  $2,200

Saw comes with bar and a couple loops of low tooth chain. Has a lectron slide carb and a crank shop pipe. Runs on 91 octane gas. Saw needs a little work but can be a real good saw.

I saw this hotsaw on a dirt bike forum that I follow. The owner old066 or something posted looking for a crankshaft.  No one answered , it appears hotsaws are too odd or is it too macho for that crowd, Lol.

My neighbor had a KTM motorcycle. The thing had a power valve expansion chamber he knew nothing about and it took me some time to figure out .That little ringa ding would scoot I'll have to say that for it .That thing was like 28-30 HP .Wow !

That Ktm must have been a 125cc
The 250 pictured above would have no less then 50hp at the crank.
Looks a little overbuilt but definitely a good saw for someone wanting to get into competing if the crank problem is sorted out.

It probably was a 125 .I didn't pay that much attention to it .Just kept fiddling with the spring on the power valve until he said it was running correctly .I never road it .He could flip it up on the back wheel any time he wanted to .Little wiry guy as opposed to my 200 pounds .
