BILLET KTM LC8 BASKET
| NEW!!!! - These are sold out. Get your name on the next batch! We've had some delays building the NEXT batch. No one has missed out. No pricing is set yet on this new batch. |
After a few required clutch basket replacements I decided I needed to try a new approach.
1) Don't ride as hard (ya right)
2) Look for a stronger basket.......WAIT, no one else makes one.
2) If you can't buy it, Build it!! Make a Stronger Basket.
So a new Billet Aluminium- Hard coated Basket was born. When this was in testing stages it went with me to
Mexico. (notice the Mexico map underneath) I put 5 miles on it at home, loaded the bike in the back of the truck
and headed for Mexico in the middle of Feb. 2.5 weeks, 2-up w/ luggage for 2,500 miles. Do you think I trust my
products?
Here are some pictures of the stock failures and my new "UBER-Basket".
You saw it here first! (12-15-09)

These OEM KTM baskets had about 20,000
miles each. If you ride your 950/990 like a

You can see that the little ears tend to break off w/ extreme
use, mine is beefed up and solid. It is also Hard-Coated
so the surface is tough as steel, but just as light as the
stock unit.
Grinding/ milling of the stock rivets is required as well as a
press to remove the rivets from the drive gears. The stock
drive gear is reused. Rebuilding is similar to the Hinson,
Wiseco and other after-market baskets. I may offer this
machining service for a fee. Send in your trashed basket
and I'll return one ready to go.
