The T-Piece is the thermostat. If your goal is to remove the thermostat then you'll need to leave that out and just use the hoses as described on the video. Skip to 5:49 in the video

Leave the radiator cap off and I put a little coolant in and rock the bike from side to side then put a little more in and rock the bike from side to side. Rinse & repeat until full. You will hear an air burp at some point most likely. Should work same on a two-stroke as well as a 4-stroke.

⁠on my TE I also have to loosen the water temp sensor and let some coolant out. I’ve been through it before.

The KTM manual says to do what @4JMcCart said. I also have a 2020 KTM xcw 300. While I’m sure the side to side does a good job the thermostat is a high point and some air might get trapped. It’s really easy to do when flushing or changing hoses on the radiator. Thanks for the video creation and sharing your experience and knowledge!

It sounds like the bolt threads in the clutch housing are stripped, possibly from over tightening. You can retap the bolts but may want to let a motorcycle mechanic look at it first to determine the best course of action. Best of luck.

@ronnies2wheeladventures sounds good I'll do that thank you

At a dealer about $300-350. Indpendent shop maybe less. You can do it yourself for ~$120ish if you can find the TUSK brand for your bike from Rocky Mountain ATV.

Thank you!

I dont believe there is a negative affect long term as long as the clutch weight is installed correctly. I sold this bike after about 50 hours of use after clutch weight installed with no issues.

Runs cooler for sure. Hottest part of the Summer yet to come. Fan doesn't cycle nearly as much. This mod works best in warmer climates.

Go to any pool supply store, like Leslie's, if you have one in your area . If you know a pool repair and maintenance company you probably could buy a small piece from them for just a few bucks.

Thanks for the view and subscribing! Hope you had good weather in Moab. I love that place! Did you drive the whole way? The tusk silicone hoses are a superb value compared to Samco. Let me know how the installation goes and how you like the Tusk hoses. Will you be posting any Moab videos?

@@ronnies2wheeladventures Two days of sun and nice temps, one in rain, wind and cold(on Slick Rock no less 🤣) Going through tons of footage from Moab is whole other project, but I will be posting vids . We flew out and rented bikes from Tyler at Ride Moab Industries. I use many Tusk products.. Usually they are an amazing value, these hoses seem to be just that..

I haven't noticed a power loss. There may be a loss but it is so small you are not likely to notice. It's a good trade off to help with the occasional low speed stalls.

Was on the bike when I got it. Never heard of them but they make some good stuff. The website appears to be in Europe. Not sure who US suppliers are. www.artafon.com/gb/

Glad to hear that, thanks

I've seen Hyundai's and minivans on that road with lower ground clearance than you have. It's a graded, maintained gravel/dirt road. You should be able to make it with no problems in your Subrau. Go have fun! You will love it!

Definitely helped some with low speed stall outs.

Happy we were able to help!
