    KTM cracked rear hub

    Hi guys,

    Have a KTM 400 EXE which now has a cracked rear hub. Cracked all the way through. Happened on a ride back from Kumeu.

    Question is: I can take the rear wheel apart but have no idea where to source a hub from? Or do I HAVE to replace the whole wheel?

    Any DIY repair bikers here know where I can start?

    I'm not saying you have, but a lot of broken hubs on KTM's are though to tight a chain.
    This is or was common as the chain does look to loose on the bike and I was always having people telling me, my chain needs tightening.

    And I would take the whole wheel to a wheelwright (Spelling?) and let them do the lot.
    Unless you or you know someone that has done it before.
    And I would buy a NEW hub.
    Feel the fear and do it anyway

    Don't confuse education with intelligence.
    There are alot of highly educated idiots out there.
