How to remove the coolant T-pipe on a KTM dirt bike

[@taks9398]

Pro Tip: if you don’t want to pay for the special tool, take an old 10mm deep well socket and cut the matching grooves into the outside of it with a dremel.

Thanks for this one, I helped me a lot and worked out pretty well!

Thanks Mike! Getting my 300 SX frame for powder coating and THIS was the only thing I didn't know how to do! Thanks bud!

Slicker than deer guts on a door knob....you made it so easy...Thank You for your time.

Replace that with the 1 piece T hose from SAMCO Sport it is made from silicon and will not have any issues.

Mike,
How are you planning on preserving the VIN number on the frame when you send it off for powder coating? The VIN on these KTM's is stamped into the powder

I have removed these while the entire bike is together and even with the proper tools it is a real PIA

[@smrider4568]

What glue need to use when put it back together?

[@arkuma1]

Can be removed with 14mm hex key and a cromevanadium screwdriver

Actually you can heat that piece, heat gun not torch. The OEM Hoses take the heat .
