Ahh great question! I consumed a lot of content of these KTM branded 2023-2024 machines before purchasing and noticed a common trend of the guys riding these machines...the wrist on the throttle hand being contorted a bit to give the bike a little throttle while pushing the start button with the same hand. After having it on the right side awhile, I realized it looked uncomfortable for a good reason: It is! On the left side I am free to have the kill switch in the same spot as every other bike I've own AND be able to comfortably give a blip of the throttle while pressing the start button. This also means you can start the bike faster being able to do both at the same time comfortably!! Thanks for your question! Cheers!
Why did you move the start / stop buttons to the left side?
