KTM can be very bad for sourcing parts from overseas. When I ran a spares dept,we would always try to give the customer
a delivery date when they placed an order.This was easy to do for Yamaha spares in the U.K.The other Jap factories were all pretty good. KTM,and Italian stuff is much,much worse. Dont bother ordering Italian parts in late July,or August,the whole country is
on holiday.

Hey anybody out there using Castrol R30 ?
I have a CR250 R6,anybody had issues with plug fouling ?
Open to suggestions about oil ratio,and heat range of plug
Is 32:1 too much oil ? Any body tried 40:1 ? I have gone from a 9 to an 8 plug.
It seems to run a bit cleaner. Smells great.
