I think KTM takes pretty good care of Robbie.

Top ends on the 2-strokes are cheap and quick, all the chassis is powdercoated and the aluminum components are clear coated so it's probably not that bad. The sand cast head and barrel may be the exception.

The air intakes are located left and right in the lower rear portion of the seat and rear number plate junction. From my experience they are pretty water tight, at least in Oregon's winter woods riding.
