Husky spoke breakage!?
Просмотров 4816 месяцев назад
Out of all the bikes i have owned, i have never had issues with my wheels. But, this 2019 Husky TE 150 just loves to break spoke nipples. Turns out, all KTM's and Husky's do this. New's to me, i ride Japanese bikes. I should add that i have never had to adjust these spokes. They were always tight. Hmm... what do i do to fix it?!

    Great looking bike! 😎👍 1993 Kawasaki KX 125 should have much more aggressive motor than 1991, 1992 and 1994 models. I have 1992 Kawasaki KX 125 and 1992 Suzuki RM 125. These early 90’s bikes looks great and reminds me from the Era when I was young... May I ask you what number code you have on the cylinder barrel? I think even I have the 1992 model I have some 1993 parts like cylinder barrel. Kawasaki soldit as 1992 model but already used some 1993 parts in it. 1993 model has larger reed valve with much better intake flow for high rpm use.

      Thanks! when i get a chance this week i will take a look at what numbers are on it. The 93 was known to be fast but would grenade all the time, due to that cylinder and ignition timing. You had to run race fuel if you were to keep it on the pipe which is how you ride a 125!

    Just showed up in my feed. I have an ‘82 XL 100 my dad bought for me in 1991 off the original owner. I was 10 at the time, so mine doesn’t look that nice but she still goes down the road. You can’t kill those unless you run them out of oil. The old girl is chilling in the building waiting for a carb clean and oil change for the next adventure. Nice find.

      It's possible that it would be a very similar process. Funny thing is, i have a 1979 XR 500 in the shop. If i get time, i may take a look at it and see how tricky it would be to do.

  • @wildnfree223

    Honestly i ring the spoke with a wrench and slightly tighten to the same ish ring tone .... Dont over tighten yet check em 1-2 times a year. Unless youre a serious rider/abuser up the inspections/service

  • @user-mo8tm4jw2l
    @user-mo8tm4jw2l 6 месяцев назад

    factory spokes are very weak, they're very skinny for light weight, same with their nipples, welcome to owning a ktm, check your spokes EVERY ride, ESPECIALLY at the rim lock, its easy to overtighten and stretch the standard spokes. Then shit gets inside the nipple because they dont grease them from the factory and there is a rather large gap at the threads that allows trash to get in there, makes it very tough to get accurate torque on the spokes. You say its odd, and for a japanese bike it is, its really not with a KTM group bike. Pretty standard stuff. Stay on it with them. Or replace them as your already doing. If you stay on it with the stock wheels the stock setup is sufficient, but you have to be on top of things. What happened to your current spokes was they got over tightened due to junk in the threads in the nipples thats what causes them to snap off like that. Just about every single time.

    • @MotoResurrection
      @MotoResurrection 6 месяцев назад

      Thanks for the input. Over tight spokes does make the most sense as cause for the failure. I guess it's true what they say, Husky/KTM's do require constant maintanance,lol.
