Thanks a lot for putting the time in making this video! I just replaced mine and packed the inside of the swingarm/hub housing with marine grease. Bike is a gen1 SDR,2015 W 39.500KM.. The bearings were totally rusted. She's ready for another several kms of hooliganism .

Thank you for your video nevertheless I'm french 😊

Excellent video and well presented. Im sure I saw a spec of dirt on your bike during the video !!. Looks new , bloody hell.

Parts are $800 roughly, is that same for you ? Seems a bit high. Ktm telling me i need a kit with a hub and bearings pressed already

Thank you so much, best explanation. Did it, and it worked. ❤

Cheuzz brah peng info fr fr no cap blud

Same thing happened to my bike

Always fill the new oil filter before installing it. You want quick oil pressure. You can’t just hand tighten the oil filter on this design, you can’t get your hand around it. Using the filter socket is the way to do it. Usually after filter seal ring contacts the base, an additional 3/4 turn will do the job.

Very clear and nice video, thank you! 👌

Have you ever had issues with mtc cold starts? I have a 14 sdr and all of a sudden mtc code will flash. Pretty hard cold start. New battery. Runs rough for a few mins then runs fine.

Have a 2014 SDR and had to change the bearings and sprocket etc just now, very costly. Showed me water dripping from the assembly. 22000 kilometers

Just about to open up my 2015 model. I was wondering if it would be possible to dremel a groove from the lowest point to the split-line in the swing-arm? Possibly to the LHS so it helps when it's on the sidestand. I love my KTM's but that's pretty poor, drain-hole in the hub but no-one wondered where the water would go? Great video, thanks for giving me the confidence to open it up myself, much appreciated.

I am in the process of changing my hub bearings , but me sprocket carrier is siezed solid to the shaft. I removed the 41mm sprocket carrier nut, but cant get the carrier off the shaft, ive tried heat, WD40, ACF50, striking it with a hammer, can anyone help?

U mnie nie działa 😏

I am doing this same procedure on my 2015 1290. I keep holding those and it just flashes and does not get to that service area you got to.

What are the wrenches used and where to get them ? Thanks

Top job!

Hey i need a 41mm and a 60mm to Remove its right ?

I keep forgetting how to do this 😂

Hi wat type of makita battery are you using in the video for the polisher thanks

I have a ktm superduke 1290r gen 1, i have the same things throwing up faults every now and then, tried many diffrent batteries too, ktm dont buy them stay away temperamental pieces of crap worst make of bike ever nothing but hassle choose a diffrent brand honda, suzuki, kawasaki anything but ktm crap

He was trying to use it as an impact wrench, that's not what it is designed for, its simply a nut runner for those tight places where a normal ratchet is not possible to use. 🤔

How the heck is your bike so clean? It's literally spotless. I have mine apart thanks to your video, and it's filthy lol. I greatly appreciate this video and your work on this, it has helped me immensely. I've been trying to learn and take apart my own gen 1 1290, due to shops seriously messing up repairs in the past. (one shop literally put the rear wheel on without lining them up with the hub studs. How the heck did they manage that?! Could have messed up my wheel with that massive torque lol. Cheers!

75k miles on my 2014 and i've changed the rear bearings twice, each time rusty and full of water, i hadn't heard of the drain hole mod for gen1s, i might take the hub out and drill the swingarm this weekend. cheers for the vid.

I got a 2012 Fabia 2 Facelift TSI Style, works for me without issues. 👌🏻👍🏻

I've got a KTM sdr 1.0, it has the same problem. Thanks a lot for the info, now I have brought a new sensor to replace the old one. The replacement also has the part number as 5100.

Nice one, thanks man!

The best video I’ve seen on this. It’s been driving me nuts for months and I always forget how to cancel it.

Seems like you could drill the hole blind and see if any water comes out before changing the bearings

I don't have this Lovely Monster bike but I love Your DIY Videos. I also Do DIY works on my 200cc Bike I love it. Love from India. Ride Hard Ride Safe mate.

Hi, very good video. Mine has a "rattling" or rather "banging/clicking" noise coming from the rear. I suspect it is a bearing. I have 2019 superduke gt (2nd gen) and it has 22.000km. Must check for a hole. Any extra hints? Thanks a lot

Best video for this kind of issue, thanks a lot, excellent style! Jepp going for other videos like this. Cheers!

Great tip as I like to service my own bike, unlike Ducati who do everything possible to stop the owner modding or servicing his/her own bike.

Not work

Excellent video. Just felt play in the rear wheel of my '15 SDR. Will use this when I finally get chance to replace it but for now, no riding :(

I used a layer of Denso-tape (waterproof grease impregnated plumbers cloth tape) to fill the void so now mine drains to the hole I drilled. The Dense-tape just sticks in place and never moves. I used a 5.0mm hole and screwed in a 6mm diameter wafer head Torx machine screw with blue thread lock.

Well put together video, nice and simple,many thanks👍

Just purchased one for my trafic x83 LWB. It is a doddle to fit, with only having to trim the rubber lip of my battery cover. I didn't have to cut the mat which was a bonus. All I used was a T50 Torx, 17mm socket, 17mm spanner, stanley knife, flat headed screwdriver and a little beef. 1. Removed the pretensioner socket using a flat headed screwdriver 2. Removed the 5 torx bolts, placed the swivel plate where the seat was and used the same 5 torx bolts to attach to the floor(didn't need the bolts provided). 3. You have to loosen the swivel plate and turn it 90 degrees so you can insert the bolts. Once tightened swivel back to its original position 4. Remove the 4x17mm nuts, before plonking the seat over the 4 bolts, reattach the 17mm nuts. Done.

I’ve asked this of a few videos can you actually see the oil level through the sight glass? I can’t see it at all😮

I have a gen two. The swingarm bolt is very tight in some areas when trying to remove it. Well only 70Nm of force needed to undo it. I'm guessing it's just shite on the threads, should I be able to remove the bolt fully with everything still on the bike... chain & rear wheel? I couldn't see why I shouldn't be able to but with how much force I needed to put on the bolt. I didn't bother, i'm gonna order some penitrating fuild. I want to fully clean the bolt & threads that's why I want it off :)

Thanks for posting this

You amateurs are idiots no one talks about disconnecting the battery before removing the seats. You do realise you run the risk of setting off the air bags!

Hey, you haven't made a followup video. Can you make further comment on this machine please. Cheers

Extremely helpful info .... thank you , I was ready to buy something I really didn't need in order to clear the service reminder . 👍🏍

Hi, thank you very much for your video. I have a 2014 V1 KTM 1290 SUPER DUKE R and yesterday on a ride I could feel the rear kicked out. There is a slight play in the rear wheel. So I would like to change my bearings. Do you think it is necessary to change the axle and the hub or just the bearings will do. Sorry for my English, I'm French.

very very good video,thanks.

Just did the job tonight, 2014 with 20k miles and could feel the rear shifting around . Your video made it much easier to see the step by step process, hardest part for me was the aluminum carrier corroded with the steel axle so significant effort was needed separate them.

Hi what size is the big nut on the sprocket side 42mm? The wheel side is 60mm thanks gonna order up the socket, cheers.

Excellent video thanks very much I will grease mine soon 👍🏻😎

Is the one needle bearing tapered on these bikes? Doesnt look to be.
