    Can I get plates and insurance in the U.S on a ktm

    If you are a CAN citizen, you could not register your bike in the U.S. without being here on a visa. You need a permanent U.S. address and drivers lisence. O'ce a bike is treet legal, it will likely stay street legal. Current U.S. titles note wether or not a vehicle is "off-road only. not legal...

    was running great....add some gas and now it just backfires???

    Check your timing. Could be as simple as a sheared flywheel key, or a loose stator. Why would you put less oil in your lower octane gas? 50:1 is about 2/3 the oil as 32:1 I won't begin to speculate what oil or compression you are running, but that doesn't sound too good, if you just tuned it...

    97 gsx 787 HELP PLS

    Having the fuse blow sounds like the common thing for a bad trim motor or VTS housing. Are you sure both are good? I've seen dozens of people change the VTS and keep the old motor (because they thought it was fine - it wasn't. too much amp draw) and continue blowing fuses or even burn up the new...

    :banghead::banghead: Ignoring the problem (and starting the motor) won't make it go away. But it usually makes it worse. Fail.

    So I dropped a piece of soder in my new engine... What now?????

    Can you blow compresed air in there, to flush it out the exhaust port? It might get caught by the cat, but at least it won't be banging around in the jug.

    snapped driveshaft

    Ideally, the pump shaft and midshaft should be perfectly aligned. Shimming the pump is the most common way to do this, but the entire driveline needs to be aligned to reduce stress on individual parts, like motor mounts, splines, midshaft bearings/housing, and pump shaft/bearings.

    snapped driveshaft

    I'm sticking with it being an alignment problem. The shaft has to flex if misaligned, and that seems like the most likely area (near the point where the threads start). At 4-8000rpm that's a lot of flexing and fatigue for the metal to endure. Even a spring that's made to flex will eventually...

    SJ Intermediate Bearing housing question

    Where are you ordering parts that takes 3 weeks?? My local dealer usually has my parts in 3 days. Yam vulcanizes the rubber while it's in the housing, giving it a good bond.

    Considdering the cost of a driveshaft and midshaft, I'd replace the housing before it gets worse.
