A while ago, Jalopnik readers advised me to thin my herd of junkers. When I didn’t heed that advice, it bit me in the ass, leaving me stranded. Now I’m finally doing it: I’m selling two of my cars. But first, I have to do a couple of quick fixes. Here’s how I did the clutch master cylinder on the world’s most unreliable Honda.
And though it might be redundant to mention, it’s important to always check your mirrors, turn your head and maintain awareness of your surroundings while reversing.
I love backup camera. When constantly parallel park in boston, no longer need to either feel my car stopped by bumper of the car behind or come out and check how close. Can make it into any “hole” in no time
1. Transmission. Not just better gears but Pankl gears.2. Exhaust. We love the slip-fit in the mid-pipe that allows us to remove the shock without having to remove the pipe.3. Clutch. Nothing holds a candle to the Brembo clutch.4. Cylinder head. Lowering the head by 15mm means that the cam is lower, cam towers are stronger, valve stems are shorter and weight is reduced by 1 pound. Lowering the center of gravity made the bike feel lighter in the air.5. Sound. The KTM blew a nice 113.0 dB on the 2-meter-max test and 93 dB on the Amateur sound test.6. Weight. The 223-pound 2019 KTM 450SXF is lighter than several 250 four-strokes (and all the other 450s).7. Electric starting. KTM has had electric starting for 20 years.8. Radiators. The radiators are 12mm lower and the chassis is narrower at the fuel tank.9. Air filter. Until you see a KTM air filter, you can’t appreciate how cool it is.
One poster states correctly that ‘some things are out of our control’, while the other believes that defensive driving would prevent all collisions.
I also see that the headlight switch and oil pressure sender was swapped out 12 years and about 30,000 miles ago. Thank goodness, because I hate chasing down electrical gremlins:
With my MT sedan, and ‘good’ winter tires, I actually disengage the Traction Control system at some intersections/starts.

All auto companies have recalls. Some require parts some require software. Bad software or bad parts if people get hurt it is not good. But what is also not good is when auto companies fight recalls of parts other companies are recalling. https://www.freep.com/story/money/cars/general-motors/2018/02/07/takata-airbag-recall-general-motors/316980002/
I’ve also seen one with the flat plane of the chip perpendicular to the stem, not edge-mounted like the one in the photo.
