Please excuse my ignorance, but am I am correct in the assumption that KTM's of this era have Rotax engines in them? If so, screw it and go get the bike. It will be far cooler if it has an original'ish engine in it. Besides the color purple is bad ass. I especially like the purple can on the silencer.

Trikeaholic (im pretty sure thats who it was) did a little research and found out that the KTM 80 was indeed made by Rotax.

Hi guys
I guess that I'm the only one with a dedicated flat tracker. It's my ice racer.
It has: ESR330 motor, HRC short track tank kit, durablue 2+2 axel, 85 style 2 stage springs (little one removed to lower the bike), durablue adjustable rear strut and a whole bunch of other mods.
Sorry for those that have seen these pics before, but the only time I use it is the winter, so I don't have any new pics of it.

Man thanks Chris thats what I was lookin for. Now I need to find a trike to try and make it look like an old school Flat Track Racer.

Two more I found on the computer when I was searching for something else.
1 This was Marty Hart's flat track / MX bike. It can serve both roles, but this pic shows his bike as a flat tracker.
2. This was a pic of my bike without the rear fenders on it. I was swapping out the stock tank for the short track tank kit.

here is a trike built specifically for flat track, ready to race right out of the box, just add gas and some cohones....
when I got it, it was set really low, there are 2 mounts on the swingarm for the shock, to raise or lower the ride hieght. I set it on the higher one, and raised the forks back up in the triples. (not going to be racing this anytime soon!)

That is possibly my new favorite trike of all time, pending someone havin a Tiger 500 in the same condition.

Hey 'Holic
would you consider doing an ice race next winter? I won't use the 330. I have another "sort of stock" 250R and my buddy has an 86 Tecate. I'l love to have a shootout. What to you think?

As fun as that sounds, I would be afraid of wrecking it! Its purely eye candy. I do ride it around the yard, where I wont be able to hit trees, other people, and no dirt will get on it. As of Now, its still got the original tires on it, complete with all the holes from the Ice studs! It was purchased originally for Ice track by a guy in Rochester, NY.
