- In this episode of Back in the Garage, I show you how to replace the spark plugs in your KTM Adventure Bike. It's a very similar process for the 1090 1190 1290 Super Adventure and Adventure models. Please check your owner's manual to ensure you use the correct spark plugs.

what key to unscrew the candle?
Just a quick note to say thanks for your 1190 videos, I've used a few of them now. Done 23k on mine this year so doing jobs myself has really kept the cost down. Just changed the radiator plugs filters! 😃 👍
All the parts needed, a large pizza and 12-pack and my local KTM mechanic takes care of everything in his home garage, while I watch MotoGP re-runs.
Thank god for your channel! My bike is being built by Rottweiler right now, and your videos are god send. I am in VA, and hope to meet up with you someday! Please keep up the good work!
What part of VA?
Charlottesville. Should get my bike within a month(haven even seem the bike yet, was sent directly there from a local KTM dealer in CA). Hopefully I’ll get it back by this year. Stage-6, Brembo M50s, upgraded wheels, arrow exhaust systems, Voayager Pro, the whole nine yards. I currently ride a Xdiavel S, but I’m planning some major cross country / Latin America trips for next year on the KTM.
Yet again your video helped me while working on my 1090. Thanks again!
So this is why it cost me over £600 for my first major service, at least I'm well practiced on removing the front fairings after the weekend.
Great video as always :D
Yep. While there is nothing technically difficult (IMO) to perform in the first major service interval, it is time consuming (shop hours). Filming the process probably doubled my time.
Thank you! Just picked up a 1190 R with 18K miles. Needs the valve check, and will be changing out the spark plugs as well.
Love your videos! Great how to videos especially for those who are a little timid about their own work! Figured I’d throw out there that an auto mechanic taught me a trick on using a piece of 3/8 hose to slide over the plug to start the threads. Seems to be an awesome trick. Worth a try, but magnet works well too! Happy riding!!!
Thanks Den and thanks for sharing that tip.
That looks like almost as much fun as changing the plugs on the Mitsubishi Eclipse GT I had; I found it hard to believe it was a 4-hour labor charge, so I did it myself, only took me 4 1/2 (and the front cylinder bank took about 5 minutes).
good morning, yes the engine was running. I solved the problem, no fuel was coming, perhaps the fuel pump coupling was not inserted properly.
I am fairly certain that Hell will need to freeze over before I perform this job myself....
❄👹😈
agreed, what a "convenient" design by KTM...
Nice 1 Mario, 1 maintenance & modification job, 50 vids 😁, I will remember this vid when it comes to doing my plugs, or to make things easier... I'll buy a new bike lol, good work mate, keep it up pal.
LOL, figured it would make it easier to break them up a bit so people could pick and choose the video they need as opposed to watching a 2 hour video of me doing everything. If I wasn't filming everything I could've knocked out the air box install, spark plugs, sas delete kit, and valve check in a day. But filming at least doubles everything so it was a weekend job.
Great video Mario - so helpful. And thanks again for your help with my placement of the main fuse relay and mounting frame - something KTM UK could not bring themselves to help with!
No problem, Gary. Happy to help and glad you got it all back together!
Mario, thanks for all of your content. I have to replace my front brake light micro switch. Can you show me how to do it?
Using that magnet to pull out the loose spark plugs, it reminded me of that kids game Operation! Don't touch the sides, "Eeehhh"! Lol!
A piece of old water hose will feel more secure than the magnet. Also useful for reinstalling the plugs.
Great Vid, very convincing .. will take me about 20 Min (to drop off at the mechanic shop) ...lol .... all my R1200GSA are DIY, so easy even for 2 left hands ...
thank you very much for your contribution, I would like to ask you if you could indicate the type of candles you have mounted, should 2 be iridium?
I have a SAS 1290 from 2017 I think they are the same ones that you also mount on your bike.
thanks in advance for your reply
Hi, I saw your video and I thank you for the help you give us. I followed your advice but a problem arose and the bike doesn't start anymore. Has this happened to you too? the only thing I did in addition to the video was disconnect the connectors under the saddle. can you help me ? Thank you
Does it turn over?
Great video as always!!!
Great video! Thanks!
Excellent videos, I just bought a 2015 1190 a few months ago and your videos have helped me get to know my new bike. I would like to know if there is another spark plug that fits my motorcycle apart from the NGK 6205 LKAR9BI9 indicated in the manual, since I can't even find it in amazon😓, greetings from Chiapas, Mexico.
Haven't been able to cross-reference another.
As always..A great job super Mario! Is it 2 plus per cylinder? You sure made it look easier than it is!
yeah, have a twin spark design on this engine.
Thanks for your video! How many kilometers/miles have this spark plug?
17k+ miles. Changed a little before they were due since I had a big trip coming up
Do you have any kind of trick to hold the spark plug in the socket while you are dropping it into the hole?
Three different methods. 1) use a spark plug socket (rubber grommet on the inside of the socket will hold it with friction) 2) place a small magnet in the top of the socket 3) use a little expanding wand with a magnet tip to lower it, then a skinny screwdriver to dislodge it once it’s in place.
@2 Wheeled Rider Thank you!! I have a 1190 and your videos are great help.
Thanks buddy's question, did you notice something wrong with the motorcycle if you put the sparks in wrong order/place. I go to a non official KTM dealer to service and change the sparks plugs after that my motorcycle start overheating, can this be related?
I already check the thermostat both are fine, I put new ones just in case but still overheating also I purged the system, still overheating.
Can be caused by wrong spark plugs order?
Thanks buddy.
I've never put the wrong plugs in but it's worth checking. I would check the cooling system again.
Hey mate please help me out, buggered if I can work out what size wrench to buy to fit the plug. 1290 super duke r 2015
14mm should fit it
@@2WR thankyou kind sir
Nice video, what is your tools for removing spark plug?
I either use a small magnet tool that telescopes or one of the little wire grabber tools to get it out of there.
@@2WR Hi and many thanks for the video…hope I will not need to follow but prepare my mongolia trip, what tools should I pack in case of to get the ignitors removed? (Socket Size?, 1/2 or 1/4 extensions etc?) would be highly appreciate your support ….and thanks again…for all your videos you share. I found your Rottweiler Air Filter installation much more helpfull as the OEM one !!!! Nice Regards from Switzerland
I just realized that my calls for the plugs to be changed at like 9500 miles and I currently have about 17K miles on the bike and as silly as this may sound do you think it should be changed? or would you go a little longer?
What model do you have? The older models calls for them at 9300 but the new models can go to 18600
@@2WR RC8R 1190
Next time go in through the muffler, it's gonna be easier than what you had to do...
Go in through the muffler??
What size sockets do you need for the plugs?
If I remember correctly, I think it's a 14mm deep well.
how many kms have your bike when you change de plug?
I had about 28,000km when I changed them.
our bikes are worse than airplanes! you gotta be an avionics tech to work on them hahah :D
Che casino ! Per un semplice cambiamento di candele , devi smontare mezza moto.
Would you need to do this if you dropped it in a river crossing and flooded it? Man...that would suck!
Great vid man, but F that!!! Waaaay too much going on! I would never get it back together....ur a badass dude.
i never saw a valve adjustment?
Separate video coming Thursday. Won’t actually see an adjustment since all valves were in spec but will learn how to check the clearance.
Injest water on a water crossing and need to pull a plug: Step 1 - Disassemble motorcycle.
Well worth paying the dealers service department to do this.
All depends on the individual. I can complete the 18k service (plugs, valves, oil, etc) for about $150 vs the $1,000-1,200 the dealer charges, so prefer to do it myself.
1.35: removal solonoid: why?
Because, like I said, I was deleting the SAS on it so no need for me to keep it on.
Yeah Sorry, English is not my morther tongue, so I dind't caugt that right. Thanks for clearing that out, now I know what are those fat hoses for, and what SAS means.
So the tank, air box, radiator and a mess of other small odds and sods need to be removed just to change a spark plug? Man that’s unacceptable KTM. you bring shame to Austria
Funniest motorcycles, but So hard to work the KTM's.
the 2016 KTM-SuperDuke R is not to bad to work on. bolts will strip if you over tighten them, be careful- go Rottweiler Stage -5 kit
I've worked on bikes that are easier and ones that are a bigger pain. While it takes some time to remove stuff, I find this bike to be on the easier end of the spectrum to actually work on.
Came here hoping it was a 11:26 second job
😂😂 I wish
Wow, look at all those threads on the spark plugs.....reach!
Yeah, I too was surprised how long the threads were.
Christ help you if you drown the thing on a river crossing !!
this is a nightmare...who disigns these bikes...v twins not easy to live with...
It's every 30.000km so maybe 2 times in a lifetime before you will buy another one... no big deal... take your wallet and pay the dealer i would say...
