martinm Posted July 24, 2005 Report Share Posted July 24, 2005 Not seen too many Italjets over in Italy.......maybe they made Bernie take em all back to the US. Let us have a list of what you need.....more likely to get someone contact you with one part you need than a box of bits that are no good to you! Martin www.motoswm.com PS. ............or buy an SWM, better bike and easier to find spares!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ktm96duke Posted July 25, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2005 service/owners manuals,sprockets,tanks,seats,any plastic.gasket sets,rings,pistons,airbox,carb boot to airbox.,rubber piece for chain tensioner,exhaust system. yes- i will stay with these non wanted bikes. i am serious as well. can't go the easy route every time-someone has to ride the "bad" bikes too! thanks for replying!

ktm96duke Posted July 25, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2005 can't help but try to see if there's any original stuff around first. if i can't ,then i will build,adapt,create. it would be nice to just bolt some of this stuff on as i am already creating alot of special stuff for it-will be a VERY light and neat bike when done.

ktm96duke Posted July 26, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2005 true-but i need some of these pieces just for making patterns. sprockets can be made-but it would be cheaper to buy n.o.s. sprockets unless i get a batch made.the manual i do really need-gasket sets save time-the tank saves time as well-plus i actually like green! (but would be happy with white too!) if i ask for everything-then i might get stuff that people might otherwise think i wouldn't want but could actually use-plus it can't hurt-that's how i accumulated so much KTM stuff. thanks for responding!

woody Posted July 26, 2005 Report Share Posted July 26, 2005 A long shot probably, but UK dealer Steve Goode may have odd bits for Italjet trials. You can e-mail him at stevejgoode@aol.com or if you want to telephone 0044 (0)1938 850544 - drop the zero in brackets I think. He definitely has some bits and pieces for twinshocks as he has been trading since 1980 and was an agent for bikes from that era when new. Worth a try.

ktm96duke Posted July 29, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2005 told you guys i was crazy-i just bought another one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ktm96duke Posted July 29, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2005 if i'm a really poor trials rider,it won't matter.it's funny though,the mags didn't say it was that bad,couple people did very well on them in this country,and the model lasted 5 years.yes,i have ridden the one,although not much-it will do.plus it's kinda fun being the freak - i'll always have an excuse for why i'll do so poorly,but what will they say when this horrrible bike and rider do better than some of them????anyway -it's about fun, I like them and will enjoy them. so be it.
