Very well done, sir! I didn't want to put to much pressure on some parts (they were stuck with thick soot), Your video convinced me that they actually ought to come loose.
Best video I've seen yet on this subject... not many out there on these older bikes. I've got 2001 200 and it needs a top end rebuild, so I'm glad this is here.
This is the best video on the top end for this version. I’m glad they quit using this version. It’s pathetic how many times i have had to reference this video actually. lol
Mine was sticking due to a lot of carbon buildup. Be sure when reinstalling everything to install the roller guides correctly after cleaning all the parts. If the roller guides are not installed correctly then it can cause it to stick as well.
Try some citric acid and boiling water in the ultrasonic cleaner, it takes the rust right off the bolts in short time. I use around two teaspoons per litre. It cleans the old bolts up well.
Thanks a lot for this video, very informative. I actually set the moving notch in line with the BOTTOM notch of the guide (So the valve is more open) and I’m getting a ton more torque out of the bike. Whereas I had it set before were you pointed, towards the top (I believe they call it Langston setting) and the powerband had an annoying flat spot in the midrange
On newer KTM models, this valve can be adjusted. I think there is also a difference here, how high or low it is set. Will there be power at low or high speeds, what do you think? I want to try it on my 2014 sx150 so that there is more power at low rpm
Hey man. Thanks a lot for the video 🤘 lost top end on my 150 after rebuild (never touched power valve). This is gonna help me out a lot understanding what im looking at
Best tutorial ive seend and i have a problem i have a 2004 125 ktm and the one guiding pin with 2 dots wont spin freely ive tried sanding both the pin and the hole and then clean and lube it but still spins like there would be sand in there what to doo??...
@@TheMatekk1337 Hello im not sure but i believe i just kept sanding and then cleaned and lubed and just put it together but it wouldnt spin freely but the ktm works today you can watch my videos about it if you want. I have the full rebuild on video.
This is a great video. Clean, articulate communication style. One of the best I have seen. Solid effort and thanks so much!!.

Nicely done. If only all How To videos were this good.
