Looks like it is all backward like some of the older KTM's. May be the pic but it looks like the carb points the wrong way, kicker on the left, and sproket on the right. Would likely be a pain to put in a CR frame but looks like a neat project regardless.
awesome . i bet it would work nicely in some of the old ktm 2stoke frames, might could even make it work pretty easy in some the newer frames if it has the right side chain/left side kicker.
It had alot on the bottom, but kept pulling. No mechanical issues really. Kinda difficult to start. The first bike we built we used a cr 500 frame and it was a nightmare. The second frame was custom built using KTM plastic and it worked fairly well. They were awesome hillclimb motors, my Dad won two N.A.H.A. titles on them.

right on . do you still have the motor laying around ? also, were you using the PVL ignition ? if so, was it easy to get figured out and did it work good ?

I sold the whole bike to my cousin and then he sold it to a guy in Nor Cal that still rides it at a few events. Not sure on the ignition. The photo is from the Widow in 2004.
RP I have seen you race the Zabel with the KTM plastics at a few events at Carnegie. Im pretty shure it belongs to a local guy Kenny Ingalls now, its a well built machine

Thats the bike, but not Kenny Ingalls. That is the guy that my cuz sold it to, but I don't know his name. Ingalls does ride the amateur series up there and tears it up on a Speedway bike.

Yeah, no worries. Now I remember that dudes name, since you gave it to me I'm so bad with names. Kenny Ingalls friken rips, I've been trying to get his Dad to run him in the 450 class at the NAHA season opener. We'll see in 2010.
