    To be fair, if you both already agreed on a price beforehand he shouldn’t have reneged and went back on the initial agreement. “I know we said $1k but I have others offering more” is pretty scummy

    • @4.5.0.Garage
      @4.5.0.Garage Před 8 měsíci +11

      Yup at that point it's just as scummy to say never mind and then sell it.

      It's definitely a classic. Especially when they know you want it. At that point you have to call their bluff n be like well shit if you can get more from them you better do it, otherwise I'm the one that's actually here with a grand. Don't be afraid to waste a bit of gas n time n walk away without the machine

      @MTO, make no mistake about it, Joe knew exactly what he was doing by buying this rare jewel, jacked price or not.
      I owned 2 of them which I bought brand new for me and the ex; sold them both for more than I bought them for!
      Footnote: Ex didn't get a dime from the sale😅😊🎉

      Yep I had someone try that on me once. I called the guy asked if they still had the computer parts he said yes I arranged to come pick the parts up. When I got there I was asked to come in and went to look at the parts. When I got to the room there was another person sitting on the bed in the room. I am now informed this other person is also wanting to buy the parts and they offered more for the parts than what they were listed for in the AD.
      I thought oh boy a scam for sure. So I said hmmm well ok I think now that I have seen how things are going down here the best I can do for price is $50 if that's good we have a deal of not that's ok as well.
      I walked out with the parts for $50 and before I got there and talked to the guy we had agreed on $140 for the parts. It made me mad that they tried to jack the price up by trying to scam me so I low balled in hopes he would reject the low ball offer and I could move along with my day.
      In the end I got parts that were worth more than $50 used the memory in my own system and sold the rest online for $40. I didn't think jacking the price up for the rest of the parts was good even though I could have got $150 for the cpu mainboard power supply and assortment fans and 2 hard drives.

    • @MTOhRyan
      @MTOhRyan Před 8 měsíci +13

      @@allan9603oh I don’t doubt he still got it for a decent price. But I just believe if you make a deal with someone then both parties should honor it. I buy and fix atv’s too and if I went to buy one for $1,000 and we agreed on it beforehand, then I’d be tried to come back at me saying “well this other guy said he’d pay me more”, where’s the honor in that. His word isn’t worth anything after that point.

    Hey Joe, a tip from an old-school mechanic; when you have spark plugs that are difficult to remove, use a length of 3/8” fuel tubing over the ceramic end of the plug, and you can remove the plug, after breaking it loose. This will help prevent breaking the ceramic. It also helps with initial installation. Great job with all of these machines you work on!
    Have you ever considered getting a parts washer? My OCD goes nuts, seeing dirty parts being put back on the machines… 🤪

    • @mattclark420
      @mattclark420 Před 8 měsíci +7

      The dirt thing makes me crazy too. Just cleaning it before opening an entire top end would be so smart. Get sand and dirt mixed in the oil , say by compression and many other things

    • @kevinsellsit5584
      @kevinsellsit5584 Před 8 měsíci +2

      @jerrymarshall2728 The MAC tools glorified version of the 3/8 hose is "MAC SPS1".
      For just 10X the cost of the 3/8 fuel hose the MAC spark plug starter works just as well and if you use it daily for years you will remember the part number. ;)

  • @250race
    @250race Před 8 měsíci +17

    It's a good practice. Next time, pull all the plastics off. Pressure wash The whole bike. Before you start working on it.
    And Clean the air box out. And the filter before starting it.
    Easy fix. Runs good.

    I like what you've done with your driveway, you'll really like it this winter when it comes to moving snow. It's not cheap to asphalt an area that size. I did mine about 10 years ago and it was $25k. Can't imagine what it is now.

    • @d3athquid0x87
      @d3athquid0x87 Před 5 měsíci

  • @canadatransistor
    @canadatransistor Před 8 měsíci +3

    I know a lot of the reputable automotive channels test lack of fuel or spark testing by introducing some carb cleaner via air intake port. If you hear the engine engage even for a short time, you've proven there is spark and practically nail down the problem to fuel in 1 step without the aggravation of tearing out plugs especially weird setups like in this video. it's a good idea to find out early if your risky purchase is worth continuing to salvage. Your videos are very interesting by their nature. You've def earned my subscribe, I've been watching quite regularly and I don't own any toys like these!

    Nice! Tip for paint stripper..After you brush it on thick take some painters plastic and stick it to the panel. It will keep the stripper from evaporating as quick. A little sunlight to warm it won’t hurt either, but don’t let it get too hot and dry out.

    09 525 owner as well. My motor sounds exactly the same as yours, researching it people says its normal. If it's extra clunky there is a nut easily accessible behind one of the engine covers that has a tendency to unscrew. When I checked mine it was loose, used some lock tight on the nut and tightened it back up, definitely rattles less.

    The black paint used on the plastic guards looks like the rhino type coating that they spray utility vehicle trays with: kinda like asphalt/ tar: really sticky and hard to get off. Ordinary oil-based black paint is nowhere near as difficult. You've done a great job bringing it back. 🙂

    I used the same paint stripper on my back deck. Didn't even bother scraping. I let the stripper do its thing and then used the pressure washer to blast the paint off.

Try adding in some fix fast from eagle STA-BIL fuel stabilizer fuel treatment with some gumout octane booster mixed together. For some cheap riding fuel blended that's ethanol free 100% gasoline fuel. Even if it's A premixed.,or it has A separate oil tank for mixing it into the carburetor through the intake manifold. From the oil tank oil pump line off of the vacuum vent tube.

    @GNX157 Před 8 měsíci

    The coolant was low, not full. If that had a coolant overflow recovery tank (which it likely did), the coolant would of been at the very top and a bit dripped out when you opened it. If the overflow tank had coolant sitting in it, there is likely a leak or the radiator cap bad and not allowing coolant to be pulled back into the radiator each time it cools down.

    Short piece of rubber hose slide over the end of the plug makes a great way to put plugs in and out.

    15:59 next time Joe, use a rubber line and stick it on the plug and it will help you turn it.

    Lol pressure washing your quad reminds me of when I sprayed the roof with ned liner on my vw golf station wagon I bet the person that cleans the car wash after I left was kind upset at all the rubber everywhere!!!!

    KTM continued them as KTM for a while… the oroginal manufacturer was, I think, cannondale or so. you have the XC as cross country. So narrower, softer, reverse and so on.
    Then there were the SX models as pure MX with wider and lower stance and the SX 450 or 550 motor.

    They're not known to be clanky but a bolt inside the engine cover does back out and start to make noise

    One of my bikes is a '21 KTM 390 Duke. Can confirm slightly clanky engine at idle. Annoying but normal on the 390. Ive heard it's similar on many of there engines. 🤷

    The best thing ive found for removing sticky residue is autobody Wax/Grease remover. Takes that stuff right off.

  • @dieterich6533
    @dieterich6533 Před 8 měsíci +1

    Quick tip: The stripper you are using isn’t very good. Recommend you use Jasco instead. Some of the aerosol stripper’s aren’t too bad. I’ve seen rustoleum and permatex brands on plastic works ok and less mess. Mar-Hyde aircraft coating remover is good stuff as well, paint just peels right off.

      Or when someone under prices something and he has a ton of interest in it.

    I had an 08 525S (before the face lift). They will not do 80mph if it's stock gearing. Mine did 75mph: however, it got there very quick. Very fast quad out the hole with a ton of torque. Great quad overall.

    • @racequad9
      @racequad9 Před 8 měsíci +2

      Just finished watching the rest of the video. And you should definitely bump down the main jet. Mine was running the same exhaust and a modified intake (much better and more air than anything they sell aftermarket for these quads) and I was running a 170 main. 210 is way too big. Also, remember to do the valve adjustment, though it doesn't sound like it needs it too badly, it's very easy to do on them.

      @@dat525s Sorry but I am calling BS. These quads do not do 80mph on stock gearing. You either had a GPS that was uncalibrated, going down hill, or both.. 76mph max is what I have read on the old Outlaw and predator forums back in the day. I guarantee if he does a top speed run he's going to land between 74 & 76. Like I said, mine did 75mph and I was on a custom built KTm XC intake with a huge k&n filter.

    I picked up 2 Outlaw 525 IRS's a few months ago. Replaced some suspension parts and sent them on the Hatfield McCoy trails. 10/10. You can ride these quads all day and not get beat up, while pulling 3rd gear wheelies and jumping every obstacle. I have a KTM 525 dual sport with 20K miles so the engine is solid!
