Definitely like the fact that you can add a kick starter to that bike that's awesome.
Kit starters are goooood!!!
beta gear boxes are notchy, i have several betas 2t and 4t and they've all been notchy. looking forward to your response if the oil helped or not, I'm guessing it wont, I've tried belray, klotz, rekluse and motul gear oil, all with the same result.
love your content Morgan, KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK.
I enjoy setting up a new bike.
I have a kickstart on my 19 300. I’ve used it. I like it. One time getting stuck without it is too many. I’m glad you guys have not needed it, hate to wish being stuck way out with dead battery and no alternative on anyone.
you can buy jump packs that are size of a pack of cigs now.. no need for kick start
@@seamarsh3756unless I prefer one because it’s super easy.
I love how you just yank everything off lmaoo😅😅! Good upgrades to have for sure!
Awesome video!!!!
Glad you enjoyed it
Now its better than new 👌 practical and super logical up grads in my limited knowledge. I usually really like blue but that beta blue isnt working for some reason, anyway kool upgrades and look forward to the next. 👍
I might regret this comment but shercos come standard with a fan 😅
🤣😂
I really wanted a sherco, but I couldn't justify the couple grand more for it than the beta. Next time, though, I think I'll try one out.
Rieju mr 300 pro come standard with fan and kicker,i have one they are awesome for not a big price 👍
It will be interesting to see if you actually use it. I was a big kick start proponent. But having a 2017 TE 300 and a 2022 Sherco SE 300. i can honestly say. I have not used a kick start in years. My old Husaberg with the old style e start yes it is needed as it is always used. 🤘🤘🤘🤘
For sure. I’ve had to use one about once a year and I’ve always been super happy it was there.
Having four current bikes, two have kick starters and all of them have electric start...I've never used the kick starters. Having said that, I totally get why Morgan is putting one on that bike, it is a great set up.
I haven't used a kicker since 2011, don't even want to see one.@@onthethrottle7104
my battery was dead in the middle of the trail in a deep valley, ktm tpi - managed to kickstart it and safely get out of the situation, otherwise, it would have required a lot of trouble, new ktms doesn't have such an option unfortunately. Also once loose eclectic connection for the battery, for some reason there was only one way to kick start it. I would say say that new bikes doesn't need it, but when it gets older - it is essential
I hope u tested the fan more. After having to "force it" to turn on. I've had enough temperature sensors, even new ones, for hvac equipment be just messed up and not read right, but when I make them extra hot or cold, they seem to work. They're just out of the normal range they're supposed to be in.
I will. I’m not too worried about it because it’s just a fan. It the bike boils it won’t be the end of the world
Nice work! Kick start, new start stop switches, pretty soon it will be just like my '18 ktm. 😂 Actually trying to think if I've ever used my kick start...maybe once?? If you're gonna race that gnarly stuff you just may need it and it would suck not to have it.
Bravo bravissimo.....in Italy we miss truly videos like this,
do U speak Italian?😂
🤣😂
You are right 4CS forks are easy to rebuild. The only specialty tool you need is the cap socket
Do you like the beta more than your ktm300?
I hit subscribe as soon as you said you don't want to do anything Harley Davidson does.
YES!!!
👍👍
Hey Morgan…..Milwaukee makes a cordless rivet tool
Less of the hate on Harley Davidson Morgan lol😁
😂🤣 I admitted I was wrong.
Beta Betty? She needs a name Morgan! She helps to get you across the Rubble 😂😂
I already named her. Cecilia
Do you do 85 or 80 wt gear saver?
In the winter in the pnw i used 75 and 80 in the summer. What are your thoughts?
80 all the time
Yout lift dropped at 8:36?
Looking good... What's the final weight???
Gotta weigh it
The kickstart install seems a lot easy than the KTM kit
It is. Super duper easy
Did you grind from the knuckle or the kick arm? Did you take the arm from the knuckle and make sure extra grease in pin area for later, or not worth doing?
From knuckle and no I didn’t. I’ve never had a problem with thst
Im soon going to replace my linkage bearings and I just wanted to ask what is your opinion on all balls bearings?
They are ok for that application
Any plans on going with a bigger tank?
Not right now. Would like it if Acerbis would make one.
Hey Morgan by chance what's ur sprocket set up on old maria??? 15 and?? Does it make the taller in the last gear?? Was wondering for road use, wanted a higher freeway speed, and thoughts??
15/47 and it’s good for about 65 easy cruising. Will run 92 wide open
U the man!!!! Thank u sir!!! I'll have to change chains..
Still waiting on that xr650r video
Did you have to remove the original thermostat from the bike ? Before installing the fan kit ?
Didn’t have to
@@highlandcycles were you noticing it getting hot previously my old 22 model runs a lot cooler than my 24 model and iv seen many people putting thermostat by pass kits on them
@@mr1982davies no, I did it preemptively. My friend was a factory beta mechanic and recommended it.
Where can I get this radiator fan ?
1sttrackmoto.com/highlandscycles
What octane are you running in the Beta?
88 non ethanol. I live at 5500 ft
@@highlandcycles Thanks, Morgan! I've been using VP 94 non-ethanol at 3,000-5,000 feet elevation mixed with a bit of 91 pump gas at times. I can get 87 non-ethanol when I ride in Carson City and that area is 5,000 feet. I was wondering if I could get by with just running 87 at that elevation. My 250X and 125X are running Apex heads that can run on pump gas.
I dont think you need the thermos swiths and wiring, After 2022 the fan is controlled by the ecu, maybe only a 4T think, not sure >??
Not on the 2T
After the year 2020+, the two strokes have a plug that will provide 12+ while the bike runs but not while stopped. Its the only free plug in the nest of wires under the tank in the frame nook. It's a white two wire plug with red and black wires. Not content to yell from the sidelines I just tested my '22 300rr re and the plug provides power while the bike is running. I'm revisiting the fan issue after two DNFs in my last two enduros. One was a broken radiator and the other was a slimy and super wet race in the Arkansas mountains.
Search for the installation pdf on the beta USA site for the Part #AB-10274-2T. It's on the Accessory Instructions page of the Beta USA site. CZcams seems to frown on direct links. Good luck.
I had to grind mine down also... Wtf?
Yeah!!
I didn't use the kit gasket and was redoing the dang thang after a test ride. My original gasket looked fine but sprang a leak after installing the kicker. Redo with kit gasket and alls well that ends well...
Morgan, I watched your video on the 2023 XC bump start, do you know if that is the same case on the 2024 XCW (can you bump start without a battery)? For everyone else, here is the video Morgan shared on the 2023 XC bump start a while back czcams.com/video/Bn6P5frbiPo/video.htmlsi=zCBCi5jSTne_lGrb
I don’t know. I will have to test.
Gear saver rocks, didn't make much diff in my Beta 350?? that gearbox is the worst box I've had in any brand of bike. Sorry Beta, but its junk
