Does TORO still use the little black cylinder transponders? Also, after trying to start my bike after 10 months today I found out my battery was completely dead and not even able to charge. I have the 2007 KTM450SXF (with no kickstart only E-start) so how do I go about starting the race do I start backwards with the motor running since I can only bump start the bike?


Thanks,
Kevin Miller

I had to walk out of the woods about 3/4 of a mile to get my "battery jump start box" during the TCCRA. I would get a battery. One stall and you are out.

Yes on the transponder. If you don't work out your problem before race day, see me (have staff radio me, if you can't find me) and we will work out your start with you - it will not be backwards.

Thank you,
Jenn

After sitting that long, the battery is going to be the least of your problems...might want to clean out the carb & jets while you are at it!!

Is your Dad going to race ?

Jennifer, I will find you thanks!

It starts and runs great with a push start. The battery is not dead it just has a very very slow crank, fast enough for me to bump start it and push the button and fire it right up, it just wont take an adequite enough charge to crank the motor fast enough to start the bike.

Hey Gene, no I doubt he will be at the races this weekend his bike hasn't been started for atleast a year and his brakes are both out and we cant figure out what is wrong with them. We have bled them, changed the fluid, bled them again, checked for leaks, and can't find anything wrong with them, the just always feel terribly spongy and dont have much power.

you could always stop by the SMS Racing trailer and pick up a battery and have no problems with your push button
