Guys

Iv'e been toying with this idea for a while now and the 2012 Amageza has finally made up my mind for me
I need some input from the more technical among you to lead me on the right path here
I have my sights set on a standard 06' model KTM 450 EXC.

The bike will put me back at least 25K and maybe closer to 35K for a 08' or 09' model
Obviously it would entail the following:
1) new fuel tank - Acerbis makes a 21.5l after market tank - will this be enough?
2) taking above into consideration - will a 10l extra fuel tank on the other side of the exhaust be necessary?
3) Fibre glass fairing and accompanying side panels
4) Alluminium support frames for the navigation equipment and fairing
5) Lights - LED or HID?
5) wrt navigation - 2 x standard ico's is the norm together with an electric advance roadbook.

I prefer to keep the exhaust setup original and not dropped to the lower headerpipe

Iv'e checked out a few sites:
- Rally-Raid Products in UK (https://www.rally-raidproducts.co.uk/)
- Alberto Dottori in Italy (https://www.albertodottori.net/ktm%20...ica%20race.htm)
- Mecasystem in France (https://www.mecasystem.fr/ca/72/kits-...nduro-r-09-10/)
- https://www.rallymotokit.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Store_Code=RMK&Screen=PROD&Product_Code=001

.............but battle to find more info locally

It seems a full rally kit from the US will set you back at least 15K if you look at the last site
Can any one supply more info please?
