- Hey guys, we are going to take care of our 2 stroke dirt bike 2017 KTM 300 XC top end rebuild today. This KTM 300 has over 250 hours on stock piston and everything else, we are curious to see how the top end, piston and engine in general looks after this many hours. We have new Vertex piston, RKtech head and Cometic gaskets to take care of this top end rebuild. Let me know your thoughts, cheers!

ktm 300 top end rebuild
Tip for fitting c clips, get a tyre valve tool,works great!
THIS GUY HAS BEEN PUTTING IN WORK!!!
These two have become such good friends man it’s nice to see that
I love seeing how you work, I wish I could take my Ktm with you, lots of encouragement and thanks for the videos 👍
Really enjoy your channel! Fun to watch your projects and fun to watch your riding adventures.
This is great to see as many 2023 tbi bikes seem to be blowing up with much lower hours
Amazes me how good the condition is after 250 hrs.. On a two stroke!
Great video and ur tunes are killer
Almost done.
Kelsey at RK Tek has done a couple of heads for me, he's a cool guy, I think his head work is the best in the industry, I didn't think my 300 could get any better at low end torque but the work he did on my head proved to me that it can. Over 200psi with over 250 hrs and the excellent condition of that cylinder is about as good as it gets, it's also proof that proper maintenance and care of your bike is well worth the time and effort.
Just finished my top end last night. 257hrs on my TE 300 looked great as well
Always good to pre-scuff the new piston!
for ktm and husky piston clips i always use a inner tube valve core tool to install. works a treat
I've been waiting for this one :)
Can’t wait to see the next video 👍
I enjoy Top end rebuilds.
Good looking bike.
Also, You should probably check the kick start idler gear bolt. They were put it short and have a tendency to break the cases from what I've hear for that year. Not that you will use the kick start, but the PO may have already done that. You google around and you will likely see what I'm talking about. You can tap the hole deeper and install a longer bolt. I remember reading that on a forum a while back and it happened to a lot of folks. Pretty simple as the bolt sits under the clutch basket so you don't have to remove the cover... just the clutch. My buddy did one on his 250xc.
Great vid !
Just a little tip, apply grease to your gaskets before installing them. It's a lot easier to remove them when you need to do maintenance, hardly any scraping if any needed.
