Title: For sale - 78 KTM 250 MC-5
Post by: jcatan3 on September 26, 2014, 11:25:48 PM
This 1978 KTM 250 MC-5 is a great bike for racing vintage. It is not the best that I've seen, cosmetically, but mechanically it is great.  I have had it for 2 years and have taken very good care of it.  I bought this for trail riding, but didn't realize that this old KTM was a power house. This thing just wants to go.  I am asking $1000 firm.  I can send a YouTube video to anyone interested also.  Feel free to reply with any questions.   Also, it comes with a spare air box, 2 spare front forks, and original fiberglass gas tank with decals on it. I can also email photos upon request.

I can't figure out how to post photos, but can email them to anyone interested.

Here is a pic of the bike from 6/4/2009 when Scott had it for sale with my old pipe in place.
It hasn't changed much, it was a good solid bike then and would be a good deal now, Mike

I bought the bike from Scott, then traded it to Jack for a 1973 Honda CT 70 for my son.  The KTM is a good bike, Jack is honest and easy to deal with, and it's practically a steal at that price.

I put a Clarke plastic tank on it to save the fiberglass tank.
