im pretty sure all motocross bikes are 30 day warranty try pulling the clutch in see if the noise goes away a little bit.

All my ktms have super noisy clutches but when i pull the clutch in the noise goes away. Not all the way but you should be able to tell its alot quieter.

Seems silly. I could do alot of damage in 30 days. Particularly to a 125 :P In your signature, you say you have a 450 sx? 2003? I didn't realise KTM jumped on the 450 four stroke bandwagon that soon.

You're not just realising my paranoia NOW are you?  ;) Yeah all is fine, you can't hear it from the saddle on idle. The only way I can make it out is when its idling I would guess because the higher rev just makes it into a smooth consistent sound.

Wow there you go I didn't realise KTM jumped into it that early. They drew early on the 250F aswell if I remember. Hows the 450 ride?
