Thank you for the looks guys! I saw the comments about using different springs for the stainless valves. I ended up sending back the stainless valves and ordered titanium to use with the factory KTM dual springs that I ordered 🤘
@@MichaelSabo happy to help, love your videos and your attention to the smallest details, keep it up!✌🏼
Michael the Stock oem Valves for your ktm are made by Del West,very high quality and def the best choice when its time to replace them.
And next time u have cc to remove inner brg race on the crankshaft to getvthose shims out Michael,just heat up C that KTM Special tool with torch an grab the bearing race an it comes right off.i repair quite a few of the sxf engines and i wont lie,i had a good laugh watching u try to use the tool and then revert to the other method,oh well,live an learn.when u have over 45yrs in the Motorcycle technician game you learn to read instructions every now and again.keep up the good work and im sure ur next ktm bottom end rebuild will go much smoother,peace&wheelies.
Im pretty sure you cant use stock springs when changing to stainless valves. The reason is, they are heavier and the valves will float at high rpm and contact the piston.
Might want to look at this sabo
Yeah Sabo, you will drop a valve with stainless steel valves and stock springs. You need to get double springs
This needs more thumbs up
this
Thank you for the looks guys! I ended up sending back the SS valves and ordering titanium to use with the factory KTM dual springs 🤘
The crank was spinning when you were trying to use the ktm tool. You have to heat up the tool slip it on like you did but then when you squeeze it you’ve got to twist it back and forth and it’ll come right off
The stark is bad ass. Straight up. The adjustability is insane: engine braking, hp, throttle, etc. it’s a bike that your kid can learn in and a bike that is too fast for an experienced rider at the same time. Got to ride one a month ago and it was so much fun
Mike, just spend the little bit of money on new cables whenever your doing a fresh build. I learned the hard way. I completely rebuilt a CR250 and replaced almost everything. I didnt bother changing clutch cable or throttle cable. Well i took the bike fo the dunes for it's firtdt major trip, did a day trip just around the desert before that with no issues. At the dunes i was miles from camp when my clutch cable decided to break. Absolutely worst time possible, on my way back to camp cause the sun eas setting. I didnt bother changing it when doing the build cause it felt great and looked good but man i was wishing i did lol. Good idea to just change them for peace of mind. Just replace them and not worry about having a used one break on you, you have no idea how old they are.
I like to heat my race or bearing and cool the shaft going back together and it will usually drop on with just the weight of it. You are going to have a sick bike, I love the coatings and your attention to detail- you get a A+ for sure 👍
Nice rads! Super sick gusseting and weld reinforcement! Hopefully they have great flow and performance. Keeping things cooled correctly goes a long way for future wear n tear. Good move Mike! 👍
awesome news on the corvette! been wanting a little vette content!
That matte blue has been growing on me. Might have to encorperate it into a ltr450 build soon.
That ktm is gonna look so badass when it's done. Great luck selling the vette. That's the perfect buyer. Congratulations on that.
Awesome! Longevity is key! Such epic parts this is going to be a epic build!
These starks are nuts man! Can’t wait to see some of these stark quad conversions start hitting trails. Hopefully someone gets a good video of them when they do start popping up places
The stock del west valves that come in the ktms are really good I’ve got over three hundred hours on them and every time I check the valve clearances they haven’t moved at all. As long as you take care of your air filter often you won’t ever have a problem with the titanium valves
Thank you for this feedback - I ended up ordering titanium
Get a 69-72 C10! Would love to see you build one up and you would be able to haul bikes around!
Nearly nabbed a 69 El Camino! It sold before I got there.
i always assemble the bottom end and then prep for the head. wrap in a plastic bag and then start other parts assembly. i wouldn't wait for it all in 1 shot.
Dude A 67-68 mustang would be freaking sick. Can't wait to see what you get. The bike is already looking sweet. Keep it up.
I love Scott Powersports I got my yz250fx from them and absolutely love it Joey was easy to work with and all I had to do was sign, give deposit and load my bike amazing people over there I was in and out in literally 30 minutes
Radiators turned out great too 😉
My maaan 🤘
keep up the good work love seeing more dirtbike content been waiting for a good build since the grape ape
Thanks man, glad you're enjoying it!
The titanium valves are a pin in the ass but thats what the bike is designed for. Stinless usually has a different seat and defiantly springs are different
Love the bike content lately you need to build yourself a full mod pitbike be a nice build series and not to mention it's an absolute blast to ride a big bore mini.
that color on 30:14 is a variant of the known "camel and blue" combination, funny enough in this very moment you see the other variant in that tank behind, orange and lighter blue wich is known because of the gulf porsche. Its not an easy combination to nail on a car because you are forced to do graphics or go too hard on one or the other, but a bike with all its different parts has waaay more room to play with kinda like when its used in clothing. Looking forward to how its going to be.
Thank you for going old school on the cars
Kool video i like that u change it up from dirt bikes to quads 3 wellers i got a 01 kx 250 i rebuild now working on a Odyssey fl 350 one fun buggy
The blue cerakote looks killer
1964 LINCOLN CONTINENTAL WITH SUICIDE DOORSSSSSS!!!!, love the vids man always have since the first builds, you made me build a banshee lol, but def look into a Lincoln and bag it, badass cars. Love from Washington ✌🏼
Wait... did i miss a video? Was there a vid where Mike said he was not finishing the Vett and considered selling it? I thought i had kept up with all his vids the last year+ , but this surprised me.
Made a video a while back on my second channel
@MichaelSabo oh! Thanks for answering Mike! I love your content, no matter what machine you're working on! To quote the great Michael Sabo- "You rock!"🤟🏽🤙🏼
Would love to see you do an old Mopar!
Use safety wire next time on your fuel tank. Send the wire through first, then wrap it around the threads and pull it back through. Great video!
Thank you for the tip man!
Dam, the build is gonna be sick
Its a good day when ms uploads also thanks i bought a ltz400 because of u and im working on fixing it up
Dude, that's awesome! Good luck with yours 🤘
You do great work brother
Thank you man!
That’s the guy who taught me how to use my bike when I bought it from Scott’s!
lol, that's awesome
Finally a stark video! Hope you some day try the 80HP mode "holy shit.... yeah! holy shit !!! woahhhhh holy shit ! XDXDXDXDDXD
Neutral is useful, especially when you are on a hill or in a crash, so you don't twist the throttle by accident.
Just got my derbi senda drd sm and the first bike i get i already gotta replace the piston
Always a good day when Sabo uploads.
Man ive been here since the beginning of your videos and ive always been asking for a trx450 enduro build
Love the channel, and best wishes. I miss the quad content, though.
It'll be back!
you need to run stiffer valve springs for steel valves
😁 he's in love with EV
This is what happens when you live in a neighborhood and not out in the middle of nowhere. Honestly that would be the biggest reason I would get a EV bike, you can ride pretty much anytime because no noise
yall know how insane a stark swapped quad would be
The track and the dealership are legit
old volvos are cool project cars easy to work on and relaiable
Love this!!!!
Is it possible that the manual you read for the tool was in Celsius not Fahrenheit so should be heated to like 572 instead of 300????
Sometimes I feel like I would love an E-Bike for the 10-20min Ride.. I don't do many Multi hour rides anymore. I do love the fact that if I drain the gas and either winterize or Summerize my bike, quad, or Snowmobile, it can sit for weeks, months, or even Years? I feel like the E-Bike will be obsolete after 3-5yrs and the batteries will be junk?! 😢😮
I love that yellow or gold zinc coating! Wish ktm did that from the factory! Can't wait to see the final part of the build! 👍
i think you should do a warrior350:)
Instead of a retro muscle car, do a retro 2wd truck. Then you will have a sweet truck to haul your toys
On my LTR450, I switched to Kibblewhite stainless steel valves and springs for durability and they only lasted 2 months before one of the exhaust valves broke off and ruined my head. I went back to titanium and stock valves and been running strong ever since. Just my thoughts, stock is titanium and would suggest you keep the same.
How do you like the LTR? I've always wanted one
Let's goooo!
Someone let me know when we back into quads please 😅
The rifle cases for suspension has proven to be a bad idea its more likely to get lost or stolen
Hey Michael. Nice vid as always. Just to let you know you have an issue at @11:11
Yes he uploaded been waiting everyday!😂love your videos man
Thank you for the love man!
@@MichaelSabo dude how am I just finding out that he replied 🥹🥹
I LOVE YOU MIKEEEEE
Need some taco moto parts on that ktm like their aluminum fuel rail
In Swedish , Stark Varg means Strong Wolf.😊
Was there an editing issue? You were talking about and riding the Stark but the video was showing the parts laid out on the bench, just a heads up
Guy got quoted 9k to fix so mike bought it and had 15k of sponsored parts and services put into it.... Bahahahaha!
If u use stainless steel valves then you have to run heavier springs, cant run oem valve springs
Been waiting for this Dude
stainless is a mistake, the camshaft profiles of that engine are too aggressive and need light valves to stay in control.
🔥🔥🔥
@Michael Sabo manual cam chain tensioners are no bueno no way of checking real time chain tension always go with oem
I got a Chinese radiator for my kfx700. It works better than OEMand the best part is it’s buried under the plastics so no one knows 😂
@18:50 mike said screw moose I heard it
Should build a electronic atv
lovin the videos mike got a kx250f 2014 quite recently i see we got the same bike lol
I used to work at FedEx at the Oakland airport sort hub and no shit I'd see packages get lost and destroyed. i once found a First Overnight envelope that was 6 months or more late.
Bro you’re making me want to rip an electric dirt bike so bad lol
Love your videos
Hey, amazing video but i have a question how do you design the graphics ?
How about a 1972 challenger
When are you going to do the kx65 build
love your videos from italy
Mike, what software do you use to make your own graphs kits? I’m very interested in making some
I know this is off topic but what does everyone think about the 04-05 kx250f? I have one and I want to know about reliability and also how they ride
Lt80 build make one
You got them chicken legs dawg
Where can i get that cs6 template for building kits ?
He didnt try the 80hp mode on the stark.
Any Update on the flooded Corvette?
Did you watch the video?
got to be a cuda
68 or 69 Camaro….or Mustang
Junk Yard LS to start ….
Love the starks, my neighbor has one and we do alot of hill climbs. That thing is an absolute animal in the woods!
the 380 lynx makes 80hp...:)
How much was the ktm tool?
I bet you just needed more heat. It takes longer than you think to get all that energy into a material like metal. Its not food is what i always tell people.
As cool as the e-bikes are I just can't seem to like them. Every time I ride them I feel like I'm on a big e mountain bike. I just don't get the same feeling as a gas powered dirt bike. The power delivery on an ebike ruins the feeling of a dirt bike. Still cool though. Guess it's for certain people.
The stainless valves are not a downgrade. TI valves are over-hyped by too many amateurs.
Bottom line is, Stainless valves are great and last far longer.
The only person who will see the very small difference in performance is a pro rider with a huge team behind him and some deep pockets.
That difference in weight is NOT relevant to us weekend warriors.
Great video Mike! Keep up the great work!
What race will you be in so I can claim it? 😂
You can’t change the horsepower of an electric motor so it’s more just speed settings…
Want a project classic project look up Maple Motors they're in Tennessee but finance and ship classic cars that are running projects..he's on CZcams great guy.
3:15
Please get a Ford!!!
I dont think stainless valves are worth it, i have had titanium valves last just as long as stainless valves. i have also seen stainless valves 'drop/float' just like any other valve. if you want less power or something more reliable then get an enduro/trials bike, mx bikes are high performance and high maintenance. perfectly balanced like all things should be.
350 is the best
Mike def wants a cyber truck don’t all leave at once
lfg!
