I still have this pair on my bike. Been on there since 2019. It’s totally fine 🤣 I ride it every day (nearly all street). 23,000 miles on it. Are they making them again? I never found anymore after this pair.

@JohnHowerton137 thank for information, i will buy it 🤘 thank bro

🤣 I love a 1911 as much as the next guy, but love the plastic fantastics too. #CantWeAllJustGetAlong

As long as the shrouds/tank are from the same generation bike, they are the same. You're welcome. And enjoy the normal gas cap. I like the quick release, but get tired of lubing the seal so it'll twist off without blowing a sphincter vein 🤣

Less electronics to manage break 🤷‍♂️

2018. Never even heard of TuneECU until now. It’s likely an environment adaptation more than a “reset.” People think it’ll “reprogram” after doing mods or putting a pipe on, or cam in or something. Not going to happen. Honestly don’t even remember what I said in this video, but I know I used to do it when I spent time up on the mountain and it seemed to help. The corresponding video with the throttle reset is a must know. I’ve used that a bunch of times!!! Practically critical if you ever have to bump start on a stone dead battery. Only works on the ride by wire bikes which is probably 14+.

@ Thanks for the reply. Mine’s 2017 with Rottweiler intake, canister delete, PC5 with O2 sensor removed/plugged and Wings open exhaust. Rottweiler provided excellent PC5 maps. TuneECU is a semi-handy app that works in conjunction with a quality OBD2 dongle and port adapter but seems to have more usability on pre-2014 690s. My 2017 developed issues with jerky power delivery and missing while idle. Turns out the problem was the fuel pump going bad and kind of disguised itself as an electrical issue. I’ll keep your procedures in mind. Thanks again.

37 years later, almost every gun out there is a copy of that junk 😆

You’ll need a tuner like Power Commander or at least a Kev Mod system from Oz on ebay. Might read up on his new stuff or contact Kev and ask if it’s enough.

Gitsum 😂

Tried it. Didn’t work

Sorry, never saw the OG comment. Only works on the electronic throttle systems.

Stock pipe tailors power to the top. The pipes with the S bend in the front put it down lower. Look at the 200EXC models on images for examples.

@ yes, thank you for your answer, I have a 200 exc supermotard and I find it lacks high revs. I have a gnarly and I was looking at installing a DEP that is not angled to catch the high revs but I wondered if the difference was obvious without the elbow and with the elbow.

The DEP should give you the top end. Make sure it’s actually a 200 pipe and not just a 125 pipe that fits. The 200SX pipe has a much fatter expansion chamber.

@@JohnHowerton137 I have just found someone who has mounted a DEP on a 200 from 2015, I'm really looking for a 125 type behavior so I will also take a 125 muffler (diameter a little smaller) for the high rpm and vforce 3 I think all this should raise the high rpm. We love our 200 ;)

@@mat_tnakl5453 V-Force 3 is stock. 125 pipe will give you much more than the Gnarly, but the 200 pipe should give more power yet I’d imagine. Smaller the expansion, more linear the power. Just look at a trials bike vs a high RPM GoCart or Chainsaw 🤷🏼‍♂️

At 10k I’d say just look for general “has it been thrashed” vibes. Also if it sat most of the time without regular starting you’ll probably be looking at some fuel system work to get it running properly (if it isn’t).

Got a whole playlist for you KTM 200SX Video Archive th-cam.com/play/PLnlzppyagzePaJzz1fRUZCHc6y9fC-tHE.html

The throttle reset just resets the activation point of the throttle. Sometimes it gets a little off and will run a little rough. Just takes 30 seconds and can help a bunch. Bump start after the battery has totally died and it will instantly make sense. Might barely make it home if you don't do it.

Glad it helped 🤙

As long as they make one for your engine.

Almost have to these days. You won’t regret it 🤣

@@JohnHowerton137 how much does it weigh?

Realistically in ridable form, prob right at about 260? They’ve got about 30lbs on a MX bike. Power is much softer. They like to be ridden like Jett Lawrence or Kenny is on it. Just click up a gear and let the nice soft power and soft suspension float you over the bumps. This video was my buddies bike. I was riding 250Fs back then My 450EXC is in some of my newer videos. And if you want it to handle more like an MX bike, put a 110 tire on the rear so it can steer with the rear. When the tire gets fatter it pushes the front. Like when we were forced to switch to 4T from 2T MX bikes… Very heavy front end feel in comparison, then add the engine breaking to that 🥴 Why I stuck to 250F for longer. I F-ing HATED my 450 until I figured that trick out.

th-cam.com/video/rmmY6cmc4Zo/w-d-xo.html 11mo ago!!! 😳 Holy Crap!! I need to ride more!

It doesn't sound like the fuel pump, there is something going on in the throttle body. I've tried to do research and can't come up with anything. It's a 2023 Gasgas es700

I have disconnected the battery for hours, checked all fuses. Checked grounds on the harness. Checked all plug connections. Battery is 12.7V. I'm at a loss. The bike has less than 50 hours

Also, it's not kickstand related, I've read people having problems with that. It's something going on with the fuel /throttle body system

Have you tried the tiny little inline filter? 50 hours is plenty time to plug one of those and not let it run.

And if you’ve been playing with the throttle while trying to start it, do the throttle reset. Only takes 30sec and may keep you from beating your head on the wall. It’s a must almost always if you ever have to bump start it. I have a video for that too.

They both have their places and I love them both. As long as it’s not too slippery, I’m comfortable taking the 690 most anywhere.

@@haniffdew8256 probably needs a remap.

Modifications? I got you mixed up with another commentor.

@@johnmartinez3956 modifications?

@@JohnHowerton137 it has power commander 6

Do you think a throttle reset could help for at least to keep her on? And then reset the computer?

How can I reset the computer?

All it takes to try it is your time. It might work. On the E throttle bikes (14+?) if you give them gas while you start them it screws up the throttle position sensor and makes them run like crap. Don’t believe that applies to the cable throttles though.

It’s Trail Tech riser. I haven’t used risers since about this time, but those are the ones that were on there. I only have risers on one of my bikes now (450) and they are just factory tall I think.

@@JohnHowerton137 Thanks buddy!

@@joepyleproductions welcome. I'll try to help whenever/whatever I can 🤙

Not at all. My anodizing is all faded 🤣 but the glue is holding on both sides. Since whenever this video was made.

Indeed. There is some pucker factor and it’s hotter than hell too!!!

It should be. If its just the plates though it will be far simpler.

@@tomkeating65 describing yourself here?

@@joepyleproductions thanks, glad they help. No sorry, its been about that long since I looked at them. I'd probably roll with a Dunlop MX 34 if I was getting a moto tire these days. Unfortunately my free ride hasn't been ridden very much in the last two years. Between life getting in the way, buddies stopping riding and my last broken leg's recovery time. It's just kind of been sitting 😢

@@joepyleproductions got back into guns because I can do them by myself. I have a channel for that now too 😂

@@JohnHowerton137 Nice!

@@JohnHowerton137 Thanks for the snappy reply. Hope all is well and you're back out there soon.

@@joepyleproductions thank you for watching and taking time to comment. I love it more than anything, but guns are a close second. Broken 28 bones on bikes, only been shot once! Haha 😋

Excellent! 6 years and counting on this hack and still going 👍

Big street/mobility market. They make all the smaller street models. Indian specs are better than Chinese specs. The 125-390 models over there are stupid popular. They aren’t making the dirt and bigger street bikes that we ride. You’ll see parts all over your bike with Italy, Austria etc.. With that said, the Japanese are barely Japanese anymore. The majority of their stuff is Chinese, not to mention they’ve barely innovated since the 90s.

😋 it probably has to be about that steep. Anything less and you’ll be right back on/off the gas to to have enough momentum.

@JohnHowerton137 i was key off start switch to kill. I left it in mode 1 before key off.

Interesting that it still did it turned off

Prett sure this was a Hero8

Yes. The bottom end of the bike is the same. Take the one off your 300XCW and try it. It’s probably just a little shorter/longer than the 4-stroke version, but everything should the same. Might give you a good enough idea. It should help with the clunky feeling shifting too, but that will soften with time. Straight cut gears.

Answered most of your own questions actually. I’d only gear for more top speed if you’re on the road with it. When I geared it up I lost on the bottom and didn’t really gain anything up top either because the power curve is so flat up top. On the road you’ll get the gradual acceleration to a higher speed, but off-road sections are generally too short unless you’re dirt roading or something. Does that make sense? I also felt like it robbed more battery. I imagine its because the motor had to work harder to get the power to the ground. Mode 3 was more like Mode 2 power and so I was twisting it harder. This could be helpful in slippery terrain however. All anecdotes, but my two cents.

@@JohnHowerton137 Thanks man

Yes, but not because of the clutch. You can shift without a clutch on any motorcycle, it's just not recommended. It should still be shifted correctly with the clutch.

Sahweet!

I’ll give that tire a look even though I probably can’t get it shipped. Yeah, It saddens me to say I wasn’t impressed by my set of Motoz at all. They seem like a cool company. Have to stand on mine to lock it with my super shorty lever. I love it! Haha! Great on our greasy roads 🤣

I’m pro damper, but not if you’re putting it on as a bandaid for bad handling on the street or something. That’s a setup issue. Now if you’re desert bombing or something… that’s a different story. I think the GPR stuff is nice because of how sleek they got them, but Scotts has a great reputation.

Either is fine. I’ve run a bunch of them both. What’s the primary application?

The volume of the 110 is probably more like the volume of the stock hybrid trials tire, so if you’re bouncing off roots and rocks you might like the bigger size for compliance.

Enduro, hard pack single track mostly. Maybe some small rocks and a a little mud.

Sounds like stuff I'd go with a MT 16 on amzn.to/3TB8UFW

Really not that great. The front wanders real bad. The rear howls. Not that I didn’t expect them to. They wear well. Overall I expected more. Still think the stock MT21 was better. FAR happier with the Metzler Karoo Extreme on the front now. Karoo extreme barely even feels like it’s a knobby. I just have a “meh..” Kenda Big Block on the back at the moment.

Voltage transformer/converter: amzn.to/4dYXnsk no need for an adapter because the KTM charger is a two prong Euro plug. You just don’t use the 220 adapter that came with the charger. Kind of nice to remove one part when you add another 😋 Hope that helps 🤙

@@JohnHowerton137Thanks for the quick reply.

Awesome. Glad it helped. I wish I’d followed through with making both brakes work together, but too many projects that work gets in the way of! 🤣

Probably not as it’s not based on the post 2017 mud free design.

@@JohnHowerton137 Yeah, in the vid you have both lever next to each other and the 450 lever looks thinner where the toe piece attaches. Tusk has a 450 toe piece for only $11. Grinding and thinning the end of the 690/701 lever looks possible per your posting. Thank you!!

@ridemfast7625 well I’m clearly a tinkerer so I wont discourage you from that 😆 ..but try at your own risk.
