About this video:
See how we setup our brand new 2021 KTM 500 EXC-F for enduro riding. We armor the heck out of the bike so it can withstand some abuse and dive into a few less common mods like fork tie-down hooks and a light bar! We show you how we install everything and how much it all costs so you can chose what works for you.
Parts list:
P3 Carbon (front disc guard, pipe guard, frame sliders)
Enduro Engineering extreme aluminum skid plate
Bullet Proof Designs shark fin, radiator guards, and threaded bar ends
ODI lock on Rogue grips
MotoZ Tractionator tires + Tubliss
Motion Pro fork air bleeders
Cycra HCM bar guards
Delany Drive Components sprockets (13/52)
Giant Loop Moto front pull strap
Tugger rear lift strap
Acerbis engine covers and fork shoe guards
Fork tie-down rings
Shocksox shock protectors
FMF Pipe and Vortex ECU (coming in next video)
Let us know what we left our, or what you'd leave off yours? - Auta a dopravní prostředky
That's a great bike I have one myself. Concept seat is a must for us older riders :)
Sick bike!! I got the 350 and I love trail riding with it.
Thanks! Yup, been doing a lot of trail riding too, tons of fun
Someone waving hand behind you and bike is awesome 🤘🤘
It's been a good bike! 70 hour review and fmf pipe videos dropping soon
you got yourself a new subscriber sir !!! great F**king vid im getting mine tomorrow i can't wait
Thanks! Awesome, it's a great bike
Bike looks 🔥. Look into the Acerbis black tank and seat concepts seat. Both those mods will make the bike pop even more.
Nice, I def will. I'm planning for a tank, bit it'll be a stand alone project. Bike got pretty pricy as is, lol.
Bike is looking awesome! Just needs a BE sticker! Wish I'd known you were gonna run a EE skid plate, I would have given you mine.
I need a sticker from you!
No worries on the plate. I tried a couple things before deciding. I'm just too hard on my bikes, lol
On a similar journey with my 2021 KTM EXC-F.. Keep up the videos!!!
Badass! We will. Actually thinking I'll dive deeper into the exhaust ECU setup than I originally planned cause I got some new info to work with.
Were you able to run that sprocket setup with the stock chain? I'm buying this bike next month and would like to run pretty low gearing but didn't really want to buy a longer chain right away. Thanks
Yup, I had to flip the adjuster washers (the ones that go on the axle) around so that the extension faces backwards and the adjust screw presses against what used to be the back of the washer. That way I could move the wheel a little further forward while still having lots of adjustment in both directions to get the chain where I like it. Otherwise it was no problem.
As a safety precaution you should get the Dirt Tricks front sprocket Dome Washer.
I thought about that actually, it's a good idea. But this one seems to be holding. I'll take another look at it and see if it warrants swapping out. I did locktite the bolt...
@@ExtremeSportsWannaBes from everything I've seen, it's more the washer losing its springyness more so than the bolt backing out. I know Taco Moto does it on all of his builds that are going to be either ridden hard or long distances. Just one less potential point of failure I guess. 👍 Love the build
@@barnhart4486 for sure. I may still add it.
I've been trying to get one for almost a month now. They are literally sold out everywhere. No idea when they will be back in stock.
That's a problem with just about everything 😭😭
I have a 2022 and have used the canyon dancers on other bikes but the KTM bolt heads are recessed. How did you install yours or are the Slavens different?
I ran the rear strap from the seat bolts.
Looking great! I’m hoping to get my 500 this week! Already have the acerbis guards ordered up so your saying there isn’t enough clearance to run both the case guards and the p3 skid plate?
I didn't directly try, but I really doubt it. The P3 plate sits really close to the engine sides.
That’s a bummer I love the orange weave look but really like the idea of doubling up protection.
Dude, totally hear you. The P3 plate looks dope! But, yeah, I needed the protection of a metal plate and I needed side covers. I punched the shift lever through the ignition cover week two, before I had the Acerbis on.
Haha yikes good to know I may have to go the same route I’m not hard on bikes just not skilled enough to not fall constantly. Either way I’d rather be more protected than less and replacing a worn part in the garage rather than ruining a ride/weekend on the trail
Where did you buy the acerbis engine cover guards? I can't seem to find them.
Actually direct from Acerbis. I discovered that they're like the only large parts manufacture with a decent e-commerce setup. www.acerbisusa.com/c105588-x-power-kit
Cant seem to find the fmf pipe for it on their website, im planning on putting Fmf + vortex reeds off since everybody says its the best combo
We'll be doing a much deeper look at the pipe and ECU soon to see what works best. It's delayed by the chip shortage unfortunately. The reeds probably aren't in your way.
@@ExtremeSportsWannaBes great, ill check that video for sure but like I said on the official FMF website, the 4.1 stops at 2019 for the 500EXCF. I was just wondering wich part number you ordered for it to fit !
Oh, I got my pipe from Slavens. It was listed for the 20, but they confirmed it would fit the 21.
Where is the leftside handlebar switch housing?
It gets in the way of the clutch lever so I tucked it away with some zip ties.
Try AXP skidplates. Made from ultra beefy plastic. Soooo much better than carbon fiber or metal IMO
I looked into them. Better is subjective. I want some frame support which you don't get from anything short of metal unfortunately.
@@ExtremeSportsWannaBes Some frame what?
@@EmileModesitt typo, should have said "frame support". Meaning additional strength for the frame bars (keep them from bending or crushing over time)
@@ExtremeSportsWannaBes If you get your hands on one of those heavy duty plastic skid plates (or just talk to other people who own them) I don't think you'd be worried about the frame bending or getting crushed. I actually don't think it would be possible to damage the frame like that with a good quality one (obviously you could totally damage the frame with the old school thin plastic ones). These new style ones are waayy too thick for anything like that to happen. In fact, I think it would be more likely to happen with a metal skidplate as metal skidplates are thinner and rigid, meaning they don't absorb and disperse impacts as well. And I agree, "better" is subjective; that's why I wrote "in my opinion" in my original comment :)
Love my axp on my 2021 so much I ordered one for my 2022 300 xcw. To that point, I got a 300 xcw and I’m getting it street legalized because that 500 is a lot of energy in the tight woods. Love the 500 but it has its place.
What lights are those?
I'll have to check. I got them from a buddy so not sure the model. I'm get back to you ☺️
I looked again, these just say lightpulse on them. Seems generic.....
@@ExtremeSportsWannaBes thanks
But i fought they are ready to race...
🤣🤣 just not in California. Here they are only ready to race if the air that goes out is cleaner than the air that goes in 🙄
guide how to burn thousands of dollars for nothing...
Haha, you know you're a little jealous 🤣😜
@@ExtremeSportsWannaBes uou forgot yo get guards for guards made from tungsten, so your hije woud weight like africa twin..
