If you stripped it down surely you can fit a new crank also? Or by stripped it down do you mean you removed the barrell. also a bit more info is required, just what does the $3500 include? Sounds steep.

I'll give you $500 bucks for it.

Second opinion needed for sure.
$3500 told to me over phone.
Will not be in ch-ch for couple of weeks when i will get full list from KTM dealer who stripped it for us.
Will let you know details then as to whats going on.
cheers all
