Wow, nice and compact. Why do they have to put the kicker on the left.

Wow, nice and compact. Why do they have to put the kicker on the left.

That is the kickstand (I think that is what you are referring to) No kickstarter, E-Start only. The 2008 KTM SX's are that way.

The 'Bergs now, do have the kickstarter on the left...just a different way of doing things. If I remember, the old Cagiva's were on the left also. Plus the KTM 640.

I thought that black line on the left is the kick start. Woo, e-start nice!

More shots of the motor, looks like they are using the topend off of new KTM motor.

I thought that black line on the left is the kick start. Woo, e-start nice!

That is either wiring harness coming off the stator or the hydraulic line going to the slave cyclinder for the clutch.

FE models from '00 and up had E-start anyway.

Plastic subframe? With the way I ride (fall) that thing will go crack in about 15 minutes. EFI will be nice though.

Nice looking. And no worry about the shifter cracking the case if it goes down on the left...
