Hello. I'm also riding the 890DUKE R. I bought Dirt Tricks TC-3 by watching your video. I exchanged the tensioner today, but the sound got louder! Do you know why?

before removing the cam chain tensioner do you need to put it on TDC? thanks

Some people are saying you should have only done this at TDC but... ask yourself why.. does the engine only start up on TDC? This is a manual cam chain tensioner so I don't see a problem doing it like you did.. plus the fact we literally just watched you do it and it was fine

@Bryan Spears.. I may have lost it.. repeated the vid a couple of times.. where can i get the replacement tensioner? Did he replace the whole tensioner and added a spring?

why is that KTM and other manufactures are unable to make simple mechanical devices reliable that have been engineered for very many years and fit them to their machines, this is not cutting edge technology, KTM make very dynamic bikes no argument but their basic engineering choices sometimes really make me scratch my head WTF! also alas on occasion ride in aeroplanes in my bike kit whilst my bike rides on the back of a truck, just aint good enough for me anymore.

Is there a way I can send you a video of my 890? See if this is what I need

is dangerous for the bike to ride with this sound?

How's the bike now, a good 9months since you posted the video, have you encountered any other issues, and how many Mike's have you done since you changed it.

If the hydraulic tensioner isnt doing the job its likely down to low oil pressure. Changing the tensioner is a short term fix, and I suspect the low oil pressure will cause your cams to wear prematurely as is the case on thousands of these bikes.

This was very informative, really appreciate you sharing this. My 2022 model is nice and quiet now. 👍

Hey Bryan, was the noisy sound only at cold starts or does it even sound like this when its warmed up?

I love how Ktm transforms lots of people into a mechanic ❤brilliant

How did this last??????

Good info.BTW,Yoshimura will replace a revised mid pipe with a heel guard at no charge.I contacted them and replaced with no hassle.

Any feedback about the KTM Duke 890 timing chain tensioner? is it worth it?

Hi great video..where can I buy that tensioner?? Thank you

Awesome thanks. Ordering now

Wo kann man das kaufen?

Awesome, do more 890R vids as you run into them. My 890 Just went into the shop with a Pulser Coil, a radiator thermostat, and ignition cover gasket, problem, that all started with my battery dying. (according to ktm anyway) They're charging 6 hours of labor for it, which comes out to be about 260USD in labor.

This is hydro-mechanical cam chain tensioner. The oil pressure is what loads up the piston inside the CCT and then maintains the pressure thereby making it maintenance free, basically like hydraulic tappet.

Good video, and answered my question about needing to set the motor at TDC before changing the tensioner, some have commented on forums you need to, others not, so some confusion exists. Mines not so noisy, but something to bear in mind for the future I feel.

its noisy cause its not electric 🤪

i did this on my 2023 norden 901, got the tensioner from Rottweiler in California, ordered on a Monday it was in the bike on the Thursday afternoon, Im in the UK so was impressive. Just took old one out and put new one in as here, silent now.

How is it holding up after the install?

where you can buy this ?

Interesting -- usually with CCT you need to rotate the engine to TDC before removing the tensioners...

hi, could you send me the link where you can buy this component? Thank you

Is there a reason for why you have to drop rpm? Trying to get mine set up

is the an adaptronic e420?

such a nice car! love MX5's!

Thanks, been reading the thread its massive! your shooting 470BHP now, its mental! You should make more videos, I will be happy to play with it and make it a wicked montage. stick a go pro at different angles in a nice twisty road. :)

Miataturbo net - Dem768 is the username.

any build thread mate?

Whats the spec mate? Im wanting to build my own turbo'd mx5 but got no idea what turbo to go for never mind the injectors, ecu and bov.

it would suck if ur head was the bag :)

im about to get a miata soon i cant wait to shove a turbo into it

Can you tell me how much money went into this and a list of all the parts it sounds sick and I would love to do this to a white or silver one.

Thank you, the BEGi S4 kit made around 270WHP on the stock bottom end. With the built motor I was able to tune it to about 330WHP with Methanol injection and 93 pump gas. I've just upgraded to their intake manifold, S6 exhaust manifold, GT30R turbo and E85. I should be looking at 400+ at the wheels using Bells components. Let me know you have any questions on their stuff.

Yeah - With a LOT more work done.

th-cam.com/video/cnCKBkHqg44/w-d-xo.html this is yours no?

dude I dig your ride! how many bhp do you get now? and what parts did you add if you dont mind. I'm on the begi website but i dunno what to get to start to boost mine :/

you should get the factory lip too. btw is this a 5 or 6 spd ?

Possible - XEDE piggy back. I was running the Stock ECU in that video and making 270ish whp. The car is now fully forged and running 19 PSI.

@nacnac I feel you on traction problems but I'm in the same boat buddy. Description changed. Don't act like the other runs were impressive from your view - That's just not true. Plus this is not the first M6 I've pulled on from a low roll. You cats will smash me on the freeway.

Other videos? The passenger only recorded two but the other videos would have been pretty uneventful. I don't recall a time when we started at the same time and either of us gained ground on each other. This was at a higher roll speed than before and if I hooked I was confident you did. I was pretty sure this was just a result of break boosting. But if you lost traction I'll put that in the description and kindly ask for a rematch. Either way you look at it- good run- great car.

I run the voodoo piggy back but like all piggy backs they wont support you for anymore than 200bhp, need to go stand alone for the type of power this one is puting out i would say, mines sits at 193bhp and i dont think it pulls like that one

did he just say "that thing scoots"?
