So my modern bike, 09 KTM 150's transmission had locked up at Evansville and I just got the bad news today that the output shaft broke and took everything with it, about $1200 in parts and then labor to fix it...SUCKS!
not quite sure what I am doing yet....

If its just assembly drop it off here with a manual no $$$$ needed. I will need a week or so

I came up with $1395 to replace every piece/gear on the main and counter shafts

Just proving the point that getting the shafts is expensive.

Was hoping that if he knew which parts were blown and if he could save a gear or 2 or even the main shaft he could save a few hundred but if in fact everything was toast he was quoted a good price

With gaskets and a fresh piston it was about $1500 and with my "racers" discount it was just over a grand, add tax and it was $1100 something.Some of the parts are backordered till middle of June.
I have it at my motor guy who I do alot of business with and is very fair with his pricing. But I do appreciate the offer Kenny! I have to see what I can part it out for? if the bike is worth 35-3900 running can I just part it and get $2000? I don't know or do I put the 13-1500 into it and keep it or sell it and be flush...new bike is about $6000??? To tell the truth this kinda pisses me off at KTM again, Had a SX200 that basically did the same thing a few years back and it turns out the output shaft is the same part # for the last 13 years and it's on back order till middle of June. Had a KTM 144 that exploded on me (almost all 144's did) and I had a brand new SXF250 that was delivered to me with no internals in one of the forks? KTM did make good on that one after I made a stink but this is my 6th KTM in about 7 years and have had 3 major faults with them. I love the KTM's but in between I keep buying Hondas and never seem to have a problem with them, they don"t have the "personality" of the KTM's but that personality is getting expensive! I raced that 1980 for 3 years on the same clutch and transmission and it's 30 years old, the 89 CR 125 I just got seem solid as can be and it's 22 years old . my 2 year old KTM brakes a shaft and takes everything with it..... |

Sounds like he takes care of you. The way I would look at it is its gonna cost you 1500 but you will have a brand new engine / transmission. is the additional $4500 for new worth the new suspension (that your going to have to have reset back to your liking) and frame/ geometry improvements if any worth that much. Too be honest I dont know if they have even changed anything bewteen years its just how I would break it down
