Love the 60th anniversary graphics good insights man

Did so much jetting on our 23. Y4 was a disappointment. I’ll try the clip position to see the difference. I’ll gather the parts you got here and hope for the best. Thanks for the vid, sucks that Yamaha did this to these 125’s and haven’t made it right yet. If you stay in the pipe it’s rideable. The jd kit did the same thing as the y4 kit for me. Seems others don’t have such a bad lean bog. Ours would bog to death, literally shut down.

Just drop a Into 2nd ring it out up into 3rd and repeat in the corners and straights

How much the suspension work cost

Lol, why not just buy the 450 ffs if the 250 is not enough for you

air filter looks a little heavy on the oil, I usually get some shop towerls wrap it in them and squeeze, insude and then outside. Less splooge getting sucked into the intake

Looking to do the same thing did you get the results you were looking for?

Heavy duty timing chain is what killed the snappy power!

UPDATED I ended up going with bigger main jets especially with the FMF pipe. (See Below) Also at my elevation (4600 ft). I have been using clip position 2. Most likely will go back to clip 3 at lower elevations and colder temps. The bike is super responsive at any throttle position. Best running 125 I have ever tried. Don’t forget to get the stationary cable holder with the CCL needle.

I just bought my son a 2024 ktm 85sx and I'm a carb noob. Could you send me your jetting data? It's not for racing just recreational

Have you tried the JD jetting kit? I ended up buying it since I figured waiting on the 6.0 slide and CCL needle might be a few weeks. Bike runs amazing I may have to try the diggers specs later.

Digger is the man, has helped me out a ton

great video. currently have the gytr whole jet kit installed with 4th clip. runs smooth no hesitation. interesting will try the richer slide with that needle. this bikes been hard to jet right from the start! thanks for the info

Amazing video. Just picked up a 2024 KTM 85. Curious as to what Sag setting did your kids run with. As stock calls for a 120. Which is odd.. but I’d it’s right it’s right. What Sag setting do you end up running?🙏

When I rev my bike it doesn’t have that’s smooth limiter it’s very choppy

Does anyone run 17 and 16? geometry would be way off?

Is it possible to put the newer engine under the older frame, so a 2020 engine under the 2004 frame?

I am struggling to get to my pilot jet is there any way you could help me out

Lowering link or not advised ? How low would it drop with full SAG adjustment ? I’m trying to avoid a 50cc w/ no shifter

Mate. Thanks plenty for these vids and all the tips and details with specs We have just upgraded our sons 2021 SX 50 which he outgrew both in his body size and ability to a 2019 SX 65 with 50 hours on it We have done a top end rebuild and only a decal sticker package to spruce it up and have a personal touch for him I might grab a new seat also with frame protectors I really need to start a log of specs and tips which I do for all our bikes and these vids are a fantastic starting point When we have the bike delivered next week ready for race season , do you have a tooling kit and consumables parts list I could copy into my bike log book ? Any help is very much appreciated mate . We are down here in Sydney Australia and both my son Tyler and I have had a blast watching your content all round. Thanks again mate . The info you have shared is invaluable and certainly saves me a heap of time and research in compiling our bike log book and maintanence journal. Cheers mate John

Just picked up and 18 for my kiddo. had his first practice on it yesterday and loves it thanks for this video will definitely be back for referencing in the future.

All good tips but the most important one comes at the very end. 🥹

My best guess would be that the water pump shaft seal behind the impeller could have been the culprit behind the coolant in the crankcase. Thoughts?

Di che anno è 2009

Love this vid

I wonder how it became leaner with a needle that's smaller? I thought it would be richer? I have trouble with spooge on my '23 85SX and I tested a couple of leaner settings but still getting too much spooge. Maybe I could give a shot to the other needle...

What size standard front/rear sporket?

So before you buy a 85.ktm. they use the worst rear master cylinder that has ever been put on a bike. Formula brakes. 70s and 80s Japanese brakes use better parts than this. They use mountain bike parts on a 85 105 for rear brakes. All they do is leak air. So since they can't be honest about the garbage they put on their bike, we will. Put the 125 brakes on if in competition. Again the worst ever rear master cylinder that has ever been put on a bike. All it does is leak air. And the conversion is around 1k

Just picked up a ‘23 85SX. It started and idled super smooth but after getting warmed up and riding was overall really rich. Saw this video and swapped the needle with the clip placed in the second slot and swapped the pilot from the stock 48 to a 45 and it really smoothed it out just like you suggested. Thanks for posting this tech tip. It would of taken me a whole day of playing around with it to get it just right instead of riding.

Where did you get the sticker kit??

Where did you get the titanium chain adjuster nut?

Thank you very much sir. You did give me very good and appreciated advice. Thanks for sharing your experience, it really helped. Thanks again.

This was a great video thank you

What are you mixing your fuel, 40/1?

I just bought a 2008 ktm 85xc, it has a brand new engine / rebuild, and new carb. It’s crazy powerful, and much more fun to me than say a crf250 or yzf 250

Brilliant video I'm buying one for my youngest nephew, what's size are wheels plus tyres added on

Gosh dang man. Awesome video, this is exactly what I was looking for.

Can you make the same video for a 85 please

Very awesome.. thanks.. I bought an 07 but still like the video

great video.

Best video I’ve seen on the KTM

I gotta get a 2014 sx 65 for my son in two days thanks for this video 👍👍

Great video buddy 👍

Hi, what is the name of your spark plug tool, if you have a link for buy it ? Thanks

Banging vid had to say again

Just bought 2022 to replace the 2017 65 we had but everyone has told me I should of got a yz I'm a bit nervous now thinking that I've bought my daughter a headache of a bike.....we on the last Ktm 65 would foul plugs all the tim twice a day sometimes....great vid honestly

Awesome video mate, tones of value, appreciate it.

Thank you. Just picked one of these up and you touched on every subject I had questions about. Great video!!

Top video!! Thank you for making it. We just bought the same bike, but it has all sorts of upgrades like shocks/fhm head/vortex/exhaust and increased frame and bigger wheels.. i hope your tips will also fit ours

That's me in front of you on the thumbnail, #675
