  • Repairing Oil Pump

    Hello everyone. My 520 exc last summer gave such an ugly sound to it I started a motor revision. Everything wonderful also jumped clean only the noise was still there, in my opinion it was the oil pump because it had a bit of a groove, so in the block and at the pump. Since I have no money for a new block is my question I can mill it out and make a suitable sleeve? What kind of material should the sleeve be? kbar for every answer, of course, I’m also aware that it wasn’t stupid to fix it from the beginning when I saw it… you learn from flaws.

  • 98 Series 125 SX cracks at medium speed

    Hello all, first of all, happy Easter on all sides. I met my childhood dream of crossmotorad in the middle of this week and now as not knowing the screw the first question: I drove yesterday the second time and creaked in the low and middle speed range and stuttered the moped. At higher turning fences it runs like hell and you can pull the gears cleanly. Can this have been due to the about 10 degrees higher temperatures compared to the last ride? 2. this St What do I do with it, and how (clockwise or opposite). 3. once gasifier-adjust for stupides please^^ I only got the one nozzle that is installed in the engine to the moped. Should I buy such a 10 jet set or do I need in principle only one? 4. the seller said with me to change the oil every 8 hours. 10w40. Normal motor oil, or this transmission oil from the motorcycle specialist store? Have another canister 15w40 Moto I have finished the tank with 1:33 when buying at a petrol station. Did the seller recommend me because of the better lubrication. Yesterday I bought Super Benzin and Castrol 2t Racing. Should I stay at the mixing ratio or 1:50 drive? Is this oil good? 6. wanted to clean and care for me today. But have no filter oil here and it’s a holiday. Can I use the air filter as an emergency solution oil with 2t oil or 15w40? So unique, it will be ordered Tuesday of course filter oil Many questions at once as you see. Thank you in advance

  • How much KM is still in order for a LC4

    How many kilometers can you buy an LC4 (with/without high flow) still calm conscience? I would like to buy one and have some with >20 TKM in mind, which is quite cheap. Can you still do something with so many kilometers?

  • SM – Conversion

    Hello! In my career as a biker I had some road and enduro machines. Now I decided to get a 525 EXC. Optionally I wanted to get another set of SM tyres. Can someone tell me if I also have to make changes on the brake system when changing wheels? The brake disc at the front is usually much larger on the SM wheel.

  • Rebuilding KTM EXC from scratch

    Hello guys! I’ve been very motivated for a long time to assemble an EXC 450/530 as an enduro for my EXC 530 Supermoto. However, the whole thing is supposed to happen with a completely new frame and a lot of new parts. How’s that going with the machine being allowed with a new frame from the KTM plant, do I have some problems there and then have to have the whole bike taken off individually to drive it on the road? I know – quite expensive story, but the i don’t ask the topic now. Would you just like to know if you know what about the completely new framework and the admission? The left to greet Jannik

  • KTM – Refill Hydraulic Coupling

    Hello dear KTM screwdriver I have recently had the 640 lc4 and I already noticed at the test drive the very turned out clutch lever (which has so DIN red scratch). If you set the lever so that I can still hold the clutch pleasantly with my fingers, this grinds. Insert a gear and have pulled brake is not possible –> motor goes off. So I looked into the clutch encoder liquid tank and saw that it is almost empty. When I pump something at the clutch on a straight motorcycle, small air bubbles rise from the hole. In my opinion, air must be in the system that restricts the function so that you have to turn the screw completely into it. Today I will remove the pick-up cylinder and clean the whole system. Vllt is below a seal leaking and has caused the disappearance of the liquid. My question would be jetz t : – Can I also do the venting with a brake vacuum pump ? – Or do I have to proceed like this : Put the syringe with oil on the venting screw below and push the oil up , giver cylinder through a short hose of the venting screw on the pump into the container “short-circuit ” and by pulling the clutch completely vent the pump and then pass the same again with the venting screw on the receiver cylinder to vent the line ? – Magura Blood I find very can I use this oil without any problems? (http://pages.ebay.com/…/?…) – Where do I get the seals, if this should have aged Has now become a bit longer, but I wanted to describe everything as closely as possible, so that you know what I have to do and what I have not found through googles Greeting Schorsch

  • Knocking in the empty load range KTM 250 SX

    Moinsen, I hope you can help me because otherwise I don’t know what to do. So, I have the following problem: My KTM 250 knocks so only who I don’t give a gas or just a little, when the engine runs full throttle, it has power up and sounds really great. Have a video on the listener but not too good: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K7UF95gYQRI So this hook up when going down from the gas, you do that even if I drive slowly in 4 gears for example. For example 1/6 gas then she knocks so funny. Pre-ignition would have to fit the strokes Escapes And the needle in the carburettor also looks like new. I had the cylinder already down you don’t even look like new. Spark plug is new. False air is not and the diaphragm leaves are also new although I have to say that the new things stand out a small gap of light to the membrane block. It makes the when it is warm more than when it is cold. I’d be happy if you could make me suggestions about what else I should control or a white person has exactly what there is. Thank you!

  • 48hp low top speed?

    Hallows. I’ve been driving a choked Super Duke 990 R from 2012 for almost a month now. I’m really happy with the machine, but the final speed was a little dazzling. I’m sure I won’t get out 250km/h, but I haven’t managed more than 130 so far, even if I’m accelerating on the highway at low wind. All the other machines with a 4 cylinder (cbr,bandit,fz) have overtaken me without any problems and are also throttled to 48ps. Furthermore, the acceleration from 90+ is more than meagre. My question would now be whether this is normal? Could I imagine that it is because the machine works normally with 130ps, which would also be strange, since the cbr 600 also has a narrow 110ps. To my knowledge, nothing is changed except the Akra slip-on.

  • KTM lc4 640 (Supermoto)

    Hello, I’m new to the forum I’m 19 and would like to finally replace my 125s with a larger machine. I have a KTM lc4 640 in view, where the engine was overhauled 5000 km ago and all modifications are removed from the tuv. The original parts are also included. Optically the KTM is in a top condition, however, it already has 3 previous owners and a total of 44,000 km on the hump. Price 2400 € (probably still a little traded) Now to my question: Should I in your eyes to strike at the offer ? What are signs of long terrain use ? Does anyone know what the motorcycle consumes on 34 hp approximately (road) ? MfG Schorsch PS: I want to do oil change and other service work myself.

  • Motorcycle doesn’t start, battery over?

    Hello guys, I’ve been having trouble starting my Duke for a few days now. Most of the time I have to push it on. The electric ignition doesn’t make it. You can hear it already, so it’s not a simple flip-off. In addition, you can see that the display/display disappears/dark when you press the E-starter and the time is reset to 01:00. This indicates mMn that the battery can’t deliver enough power anymore. dard-Bleibatterie already changed a few years ago against a gel-battery, my father says that it has to be somewhere else. That’s why I wanted to get some certainty now. What I can add: With both batteries (the old lead- and the gel-battery) the electrical ignition – even if they come fresh from the charger – does not work as well as before. That’s why, I guess, the gel-battery will be already over. Strange is that to B In the beginning of my motorcycle season this year everything was ok. Can confirm that the battery and not something else is to blame / co-inflict? Then I would simply buy a new one (and get a few tips from you for it). The workshop gave me an appointment only on 20.06. As long as pushing or driving a bus would be crap.
