The KTM and Cannondale are totaly different. KTM has a very smooth power delivery and much more torque. The Cannondale likes to rev more.

In a drag race I think there won't be much difference.

I can't realy compare the handling, yet, coz I have not ridden it on a MX track yet. But I do notice that the Cannondale is a bit lighter then the KTM.

EDIT: I also got a movie with sound http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBPSAdmUz2I

Tested it on the MX track. Runs good and fast.

Did you make your heel guards?

Yup. It took me about 1 full day to make. The extended footpegs work very good for MX.

That looks great man! Nice work. It looks almost like it just rolled off the assembly line. Are they all new parts? Or did you clean everything.

I cleaned everything like crazy and got the plastic to shine again. It looked very bad before.

Thanks

After some more riding, it now seems that the Cannondale is faster then the KTM on the hard-surface sections of the mx-track. laugh.gif
But I think that is coz of the tires, Cannondale has Holeshots, and KTM 22" mud tires.

Anyways, my dad has now bought a racing camshaft for his KTM. laugh.gif
