KTM 690 how to properly replace a front sprocket

[@papaduck2443]

Thanks for posting the torque specs on the front sprocket cover!! I couldnt find them anywhere! Really appreciate that!

[@ohnegative9526]

Jesus dude overkill on the locktite by a large margin.

[@rossvlogs7015]

Agree 😉 It was just close to out of date.

Thank you, this is how the video is shot.

What would happen if you engage gear while removing / installing front sprocket?

[@rossvlogs7015]

Unwanted gearbox stress, if we can avoid - just avoid.

[@elvispusley3515]

You need to stake the washer. If it does not look good at the old stake point. 180* and stake it there. Locktight alone is not enough. That is why you have a stake washer. If not get one.

[@rossvlogs7015]

I installed the new washer, look carefully.

[@elvispusley3515]

I stake them on both sides and use orange loctite. When I single staked it it worked loose. I bought a Vanasche case saver so I can keep an eye on it. Orange is in the middle of blue and red. For fasteners 3/4 -1inch

Where did you get the axle slider?

[@rossvlogs7015]

I bought the bike with that setup. Check Aliexpress, there are similar items.

@@rossvlogs7015 thanks bro

[@rossvlogs7015]

You're welcome

[@rebus20]

The nut is permanently bonded to the countershaft... lol I literally cringed at the amount of loctite. Otherwise, good video.

[@rossvlogs7015]

Maybe soon I'll record another replacement and we will see, do not save money on loctite 😀

[@ronniechestnut3340]

What size is the nut for taking the sprocket off?

[@rossvlogs7015]

27 mm

[@BlueRage]

What make was the sprocket?

[@rossvlogs7015]

First signs of wear - bad shape and size of teeth. Just preventing faster wear of chain 😉

[@BlueRage]

@@rossvlogs7015 No, meaning what brand did you go with?

[@rossvlogs7015]

Bought in ktm dealer shop, part number 58033029015. Cheap as other.

[@marcosfernandez3687]

You don’t need to grease the counter shaft

[@rossvlogs7015]

I used cleaner before I put Loctite glue 😉

[@walhack2297]

Sponso Locktite ? xD

[@rossvlogs7015]

Ye, but for free 😅
