The reason I still ride Supermotos is they always give me that rush of excitement & exhileration I used to get when riding motorbikes when I was a kid. Pure joy on two wheels every time #SMLife
100%% agree with you Bimble
I think that is what we're all really riding and trying to keep, the adrenaline of excitement. Unlike a rollercoaster we (somewhat) control the action.
Am so tempted by the SWM SM500R, but the service schedule would be a pest (not as bad as the KTM, but still a pest!) :-)
@@HippoDrones Might as well just find a low-hour Husky SMR511 and save a bunch of cash
@@Balomis I wish I'd never gotten rid of my Husky SM510R! :-)
Lots of valuable information, I'm taking your advice sir! Thank you, you are a gentleman, and a scholar.
Thanks for taking time to make this video
Totally agree LCR, supermotos are a total blast. I have a TM supermoto 530 smr and it's a animal. I have fitted a HGS twin exhaust system, carbon fibre airbox and fuel tank.
A Carbon Fiber Air Box? Who gives a F()ck? Jesus Christ man, congratulations!
Hey! I turn 16 really soon and im buying a husqvarna te 125!
In norway we can drive 125 2 stroke supermotos at 16 so we can get a small taste off what we are getting with the 450's!
The husqy have about 42hp at the crank without restrictions! Just the same as the ktm's and the other Big brand sumo 2 strokes.
I have been riding since i was small and i cant wait to get my hands on a sumo again! Haven't owned one in 4 years and every time i try my friends sumo i miss it more and more. I have ridden naked bikes a lot as well but There is just something about those damn motards that gets me going!
Nice video im deffinetly subscribing!
Enjoy it dude! Great fun
Sorry, but the husky te 125 isn't gonna have 42hp to crank. More like 36-37hp from the crank, since 2 that kind of bikes averaged 29rwhp. :)
At what dealership in norway can you get the Husq?
vil ha te har ikke råd så blir nok exc
@Daniel Gustafsson Sjöö You feel like a big man calling a 16 y/o kid a "total fucking dumbass" for not knowing something dumb like that? Calm yourself fool.
I own an 2018- 701-SM, Rottweiler modded out, incredible bike. The Husky is the complete package!! Wheelies for days, and it can handle the freeway with ease!!! First bike i ever owned that I didn’t install a Steering Dampner- go 701 perfect power!!!
How do you not have over 1M subs? Your videos are super good and i live it. Support from Norway:)
I had the drz400sm awesome fun bike and sold it two years later for more than I paid for it lol
my dad put 20k (easy miles) on his 2008. sold it for $900 bc he let the battery die and was just tired of it. I wanted that bike so bad :|
damn ur so underrated, ur editing and content are so good... earned a sub
Can't beat the sumo life dude! Great video as always ✌
Brilliant vid mate, love those Woking backroads
My neighbor bought a ktm 990 super moto a couple of weeks a go and i rode it last saterday and i am in love with it 😂🤣🤣 made me think of selling the shiver 😂 any way great video chops there are some more super moto options suzuki ducati aprilia honda but the choice is yours
Another bike another day for Mr Chops. Already talking about modding the replacement bike! 👍
Great video. Very useful.
Handroids are worth every penny!!! Excellent glove
Had 701 sm . Now on 701 enduro . It's even more fun . I reckon with sticky trail tyres it's even better than the SM . Rade Garage too of course.
what's the reason why you went with the Enduro model 701 ? ( is it better for conversion to a SM ? )
We are big guys. On next sumo explain suspension settings or mods over stock. Love the 690/701 can't wait!
This was left untouched the suspension. I do have heavier weight springs I bought for it sat here but never fitted them. On the road it was fine, would have been too soft for track riding mind...
Love the content man! Have a 2012 Speed Triple R and i'm kicking around getting another bike. Considering a new 950 Hypermotard or a new Tuono RR but this looks like a fun option, used to like hitting the dirt roads
I've got a motord a amazing bike electronics are crappy how ever but apart from that one of the best bikes I have ever bough
Bought*
Can't blame you for selling it John, shame to see it go though. Looking forward to your test on the 690 enduro, I think that could be quite an awesome longer legged adventure bike.... and def looking forward to the new build of the 690/701 when you get it. You'll have to do a trackday on it at somepoint!
Thanks Pete, yes was sorry to see it ride away but know it's the sensible thing to do..
Great video! :)
Love the bike and i'm looking to buy a supermotard too! Where is this stunning place? It's so beautiful
Another very good video chops more 👌 please.
Mostly what the cush drive does is take strain off your countershaft sprocket bearing which is exposed to excess wear with the increased grip if you don't fit one.
what a beauty. I've never had a sumo before, might just get one. Btw the outro is amazing!
Thanks Hubert :-)
This winter I'm building my own 450 for racing in Scottish and British Supermoto Championship. :D I currently race a renter CRF450 at Crail. It's honestly an awesome platform. Love how light and versetile they are.
The sound 😍😍😍
The long awaited video 😎
haha been a while coming :-)
Cush drive saves the counter shaft, a must for on road.
Beauty and beast..😍😍 How you done MOT without indicators??
I went with the ‘16 690R(now smc) because of the generous time within service intervals. Great viv🤘😎🤘
Good value!
I sold my 701 and bought z900rs, now one year later i regret and sold my z900rs and bought a new 701. Getting it tommorow!
Would be happy if you did the same so i can see all the mods your getting and maye get the same stuff if it looks appealing! :)
I've had two ktm exc 525 supermotoes and yes lots of power and very good bike, but very pricey to buy and maintain. Now have a drz 400e supermoto witch has a bit more power then the standard drz and cost me 1200 pounds, for my needs its just as much fun at a lot less mantanice. With the ktm it's a lot of money to have as a weekend toy,but if you want a more extreme supermoto then yes ktm would be the one to have
Which bikes have less maintenance needed that can be converted to supermotos apart from the DRZ?
@@edwinkarani5593 Any 2 stroke.
I have a 2020 ktm 500exc-f... what’s the best wheel set up I can buy ? Already built the rest of the bike
Lovely bike! I miss my 690SMC. They make perfect commuters too if you're doing under 70mph...around town my SMC was king. But going to fun roads was a pain in the arse as I had to use the highway. Singles are so much fun too...great way to learn how to use the throttle properly
Yes agreed, really improved your road skills a supermoto
@@LambChopRides I think the long stroke forks and shock also add to your skillset. It makes understanding weight transfer so much easier than a sports bike. I reckon everyone needs a supermoto at one point... Just look at how many professional racers own one...
I had a 640LC4 road legal enduro in London 1997/1998 time. Was so much fun. The traffic light grandprix's were endlessly awesome.
Very nice bike you have there. Just bought a 95 DR650R that I will be converting to supermoto... I wanted to ask you, how do you get rid of wind noise on your gopro? Thanks.
Regards,
H3em
What do you think about a champion framed 350 Jawa dirt tracker. Think a front brake might come in handy. Don't remember much conversation about suspension other than stiffer springs and higher viscosity fork oil. I would think that there would be a lot more to it. Had a friend that specialized in tuning suspensions. He started a business and had a quite a reputation tuning MX bikes. LE engineering or something to that effect. A couple years later I ran into him at a World Superbike at Laguna Seca and he was servicing some top teams suspensions . This was the mid -late '90's. I was pretty impressed but he told me the mx bikes were pretty impressive right from the factory and the superbike tuning he was just doing for kicks and PR but what his bread and butter business was now bicycles and snow mobiles. Go figure? RIP Jim!
So i just purchased this bike, got a good deal on it with trade in and working at a dealership, plan to do a supermoto build exactly like yours. What should i do to prolong the bikes life? I have a R6 that i ride quite religiously and feel im going to run into that same issue with the supermoto build as it will be my first sumo. So any tips on bike life prolonging, anything i can invest in/upgrade ill consider. Thanks and sick ktm mate👍
Im on my 2nd 701 to 😃 best bike in the word
More of your gsxr please thanks Danny
Cracking video, what go pro mount is that
Hi mate , love the content, did you make any adjustments to the suspension for supermoto and street riding, I've built one around my fx 350 and wondering what needs to be done to the suspension to take it from an enduro bike to a road bike
Many thanks
Gaz
Did you figure it out yet?
My only vehicle is a 500 exc and i change the oil every 1200-1500km depending on how much off-roading I do. Everything Ktm says in that book is conservative and meant for racing. I found when I changed the oil at 15 hours it had just broken in and was still like brand new. Although I can’t speak for a chained up and muzzled 500 supermoto. It’s a shame your getting rid of it but it sounds like you took the fun out of it for yourself. If you want to go on long trips you should do it, it doesn’t take a whole lot of equipment to maintain the machine.
I've had three KTM 525 RFS bikes (two street stupermotos) and I've watched similar bikes in the forums over the years, some of the guys have over 40,000 miles on them in adventure tour trim and do 2,000 mile oil changes with thousands of hours on stock engines - it's ALL WAY over hyped - they can handle much, much longer oil changes than 15 hours and valves don't move much after the initial few checks. Also remember that KTM 690 still have the rocker arm/shaft/bearing issue - still has not been rectified, so every 15,000 miles they should be changed for new ones - BTW, I had an original 2008 SMC 690 and the rocker shafts should be staked with a center punch to keep them in place. also, how hard is it to change quart or so of oil on these - takes five minutes and costs $3 (I use DELO 15w40 and its $10 a gallon over here) - filters are good for a long long time. Just picked up a 2005 525 SMR street sumo.
Weird written, but what mic set are you using? Seems like a nearly perfect mix of weeks cancelation but still getting the engine noise. Planning to convert my 500 EXC-F to SM for commuting to work (all back roads!) And then swap back on the knobbies for dirt when i need it
what should be my aprouch for a 125cc 4 stroke conversion?
Looks awesome and great fun to ride Choppsie 👍
Looking forward to the Ducati SM next.
Great Video. I would love your opinion 'video' comparing your KTM 500 EXC-F Sumo to your Husky 701?
I wrote this before watching the video...you pretty much answered my question...Thanks
That view at 5:38 is *chef's kiss* 👌🏽
I converted one based on a ccm 644 only 50bhp great but wanted more added a yam mt07 75bhp 6speed proper fun . Leaves the husty 701 for dead 😉
whats funny is your short rant about sellin the 500 while ripping it looked to fun that im going to buy one now
got my ktm 250 exc looking to get some wheels and tires!
What drive of the back rim? extra $100 for option
What tail tidy as that is the best looking one I’ve ever seen
Do you miss the Exc 500 supermoto ? I have a 450 and I love it !
What size of the front & wheels wheels? Thankss
Im planning on buying a ktm 125 exc 2013 and converting it to supermoto any other bikes you guys recomend?
Sweet bike! is your front tire on backwards?
Which one was most fun this bike or the 701?
Mr chops how do you get on with insurance on your bikes. So many mods to them and insurance companies can get a bit fussy.
what kind of handguards are these??
What’s a supermoto that don’t require much maintenance what would U recommend
Did you have any tire rubbing on the chain?
Super 👌🏻
You ever been on Aprilia Dorsoduro? Im looking at buying one in the next few weeks as it has that "supermoto" like feeling and look about it whilst being a usable everyday roadbike.
No I haven't but heard they are a bit underpowered.. would like to try though as look great!
Why don't you rent one for a week? Do a bike trip and you know if you want it or not. Buying a bike without even knowing it? That's a classic "Nononono!!!"
Size wheel and tires?
Thanks
I’ve just had a ‘19 701 delivered and it’s great fun so far 👍
Great to hear!! Hopefully wont be too long behind you with mine :-)
Where can you get a frame from
I've had three KTM 525 RFS bikes (two street stupermotos) and I've watched similar bikes in the forums over the years, some of the guys have over 40,000 miles on them in adventure tour trim and do 2,000 mile oil changes with thousands of hours on stock engines - it's ALL WAY over hyped - they can handle much, much longer oil changes than 15 hours and valves don't move much after the initial few checks.

Just picked up a 2005 525 SMR street sumo.
I just decided to look for a 450 exc and talked myself into the maintenance. What forums are you on? I'd like to check out these threads.
@@Vex-Milk Just surfing the net and reading the post by all these guys that had run the RFS engines long term and they got LOTS of miles out of them - These engines can run up into the thousands of hours before new valves and/or piston rings are even touched. (Should do valve lash .004" but have screw adjusters not shims, so super easy) Also oil change intervals can be extended much longer than 15 hours. I just got me a fresh 525 SMR, so I'm going to put some real miles on he but I'm confident these are some of the best engines KTM ever made from my finding over the past 10 years or so of being around these.
@@Vex-Milk Thumpertalk forums are a really good resource. Like Glen Davis said, the RFS and now the XC4 engines are really much more durable that people would have you believe. I have over 18000 kilometers on my 500 EXC and it's probably not even in the top 5% of high mileage bikes. That said, the previous owner gunked it up with a ton of carbon build up so it needed a bit of cylinder head work.
Watching from America,IAM 57 n bin riding since I was 8 miss my ole 78 Yamaha xt500e thumper endoro street legal I was 17,n back then didn't realize what a quality dependable machine I had,the oil was stored n the frame oil filler cap was above the petrol cap,to drain engine oil you removed drain plug from frame
Google this bike they also made a tt500 was same bike but had closer ratio transmision off road version
Lovely bike I don't think I'd be able to sell it!!
You are definitely the king of Bling lol
You need gold teeth chops hahaha
its not high maintance of these bikes for that use. I have a wr450F (2016) with 0,7 litre oil. The manual says oil change every 2000 kms for road/dual-sport use. This exc have 1,2 ltr oil and can do 2000kms between oil change, no problems. One guy have 800 hours on his exc 500 and he change oil every 2000 kms.
Have you considered building a TE300i or EXC 300 TPI SuMo? They're even lighter, comparable power, and no valve maintenance.
Yes sorts wish I had got one instead tbh
Yeah but you got top end rebuilds instead! I ran a CR500 on the road for a while and it was nuts!
@@esuohdica You have top end rebuilds on the 450s also so....
A New 701 Build FTW! Personally i don't like the looks of the 690 over the 701, and since they cost more. I'd stick to the 701 and spend the money you didn't have to spend, on the rottweiler kit!
Nice bike✌
I had a Suzuki DRZ (SM) , back in the day, great little street bike. Traded it in for the KTM 990 SMT which was a good all round machine. KTM up in Scotland now is very limited only one dealer the last time I checked. Caused problems getting warranty work done, long waiting times...etc
( No wheelies he said 😂.)
Well atleast their's another build vid in the future 👍👍👍.
What do u think about maintenance and reliability on a 99 640lc4 Grey motor?
,they are old tractors, unless it’s mega cheap and maintained, don’t bother mate
😂 Your wheels and brake kit cost the same as my whole bike.. CCM 644 sumo tank.. Slow as hell but soo much fun..
I’m interested in getting a 125 supermoto do you guys think that is fast enough? And what’s your thoughts on the swm rs125. Great video! Make me want one even more
if it's 2 stroke then yes it's fast enough, if it's a 4-stroke it will be fun for a month or two then you will see it's too slow. Look at husqvarna sm 125, they aren't that expensive used and have good parts.
Having to rebuild top ends ever so often and the maintenance is basically for Motocross riders and pro teams now. You have a beautiful Moto but if you can have a look at maintenance powerful bike that will keep it's value, go for it. I'm starting to run scrambles next season and I like the Enduro you tested but KTM and Husky prices are making me look for an old Yamaha WR.
Beta have some good options for scrambles, a bit cheaper than KTM/Husky too! :-)
@@HippoDrones I was interested in Beta lately, after watching some CZcamsrs showcase the 200rr and I think a 350. The brand really isn't prevalent in my area so I might have to travel a bit to find a dealer.
@@Bredaxe I had to get mine delivered without even seeing one in the flesh, it'd be awesome if they could improve the dealer network. I've had great support over email/phone from the place I got mine from in the UK. I just saw a post on Facebook regarding a dyno shootout, the KTM 500 has less power and torque than the Beta 430 which was interesting to read! :-)
I just put warp 9 sm wheels on my 450L and I’m dying waiting for this rain to break😭
It's silage season, watch out for tractors ;)
Yes indeed
How many weird English words have I never heard before? Silage? Sure that's not a French word? Why don't you Brits all start speaking French? Way easier...
Silage
@@voornaam3191 You've clearly never lived near or spoken with farmers.
@@iamtherealzombie Do it. OMG!
Looking for a blown up Aprilia SVX to drop a 2t in. KTM 300?
Wanted to get a aprilia sx 50cc 2019. Are they any good?
Not worth it man youre gonna regret it, just get a used 50cc, youll sell that bike as soon as you get the 125 license
I've had supermotos in the early 00's but for me its about super nakeds now. I think years of mx as made me enjoy big singles on track too much...not road
So you love naked singles.... Bikers are human after all?
love my supermoto ...so much fun
Wouldn't a converted xr650r, at least in theory, be the bees knees for a supermoto? Decent power, reliable, longer service intervals, etc.
extremely heavy. Im doing an XR400 right now it's the perfect size just air cooled holds it back.
Exc 300 2 stroke for real mad fun
I bought it I love it 2020 ktm 690smcr
everyone who gets a ktm 4 stroke tends to sell them after 1 year to 3 years of usage, why?
Supermoto's are not an average touring bike. Know what type of bike you are getting into. There are people riding KTM for fifty years, too. There's only one way to find out. And then many give up.
Question, what are these sort of rims normally on?
These are specially made for supermoto riding.
Great vid. I’ve tested the new 690 and came close to buying a Husaberg FS650 last year. That’s a mental bike, 109kg at 70-ish bhp. Hoping to get a last series 690 soon.
Really looking forward to seeing you modify a 690 or 701!
Needs a Hinson slipper clutch
im 160 cm tall.. or 5 foot 4 (i think) and ive had a yamaha 660 xt. i have huge problems putting my feet down.. and i REALLY want a motard :(
When are you doing update on the gsxr???
New build video coming for GSXR very soon!!
What kind of Bikes is this ??? make n model please ???
What are some good supermoto bikes ?
Just install oil cooler on it and run longer oil change intervals. And keep your lightweight real supermoto 😊
the front brake is more then my entire bike (XL600R) ahahahahah
What rear rim size and tire size are y using? 4.25 inch or 5inch?
5 inch Thomas 👍
Lamb Chop Rides Awsome thanks for your reaction! So what tire size are u running? 160/60? Cuz i have a load of Tire rubbing on my EXC 500 with a 5 inch rim.
