Please make them in depth for us noobs and not skip any steps. Don't worry about the videos being too long, the longer they are the better. You're one of the only RUclipsrs with quality SMCR videos. Greetings from an Indian fan and we really appreciate it.
I’d love to know what you do for a living other than the channel! I’d give my left nut to be able to do a build like this. Upgrade of bike and then all the parts, INSANE! Great first episode, cannot wait to watch the rest!!
Nice one Chops!!! I’m about to bite the bullet for the new 2021 smcr as it apparently has got a upgraded display with gear indicator and rev counter 👍 looking forward to this build!! Keep m coming! Regards Dennis
@@mykheaton no unfortunately not but at least it’s got a gear indicator rev counter, new brembo monoblock up front and different abs modulator and think (this one I’m not 100% on) they’ve upgraded the front forks as well. Regards
Looking forward to this build as I've got same bike. Don't you worry about the security of the power parts seat when you park up, I do about mine as there is no security..
So you kept it 👍 so if you owned a 1290sdr and prefer the sumos I guess the fate of my SDR is sealed. Been thinking of trading in, just wasn't sure if I was down grading. Thanks Chops.
Bring on the Ducati build. Brave mr chops meting with ktm. I’ve never gone back to them. Not reliable as stick! Hope all goes well though fingers crossed mate
Absolutely brilliant set of videos, just brought a KTM 640 LC4 and am so inspired to restore and bring up to date!! Found Mr Chops through 44 Teeth - both equally excellent content of different levels 👍👍👍
@@LambChopRides have watched a couple of your videos now, I have a GSXR and now the KTM! Both videos/episodes have been uplifting during these crazy times! Please keep keep the excellent quality and updates coming as I am sure they inspire and give the watchers a bit of sanity lol
I wish I had the time to do a project of my own, but the next best thing is to watch Chops do his. Entertainment at its finest 👍😊 Looking forward for this Chops. 😊
excited for this. i recently bought a 701 enduro, and now 6 months later im starting to realize i should have gone supermoto because i dont much like the idea of trashing it in the sticks, too expensive that! considering what it would take to do a mild conversion
Knew you'd get it eventually Chops. Great entertainment as usual. Expat viewing in lockdown Italy, 2 adverts! one at the beginning, one right in the middle! Hope this is not now the norn! Cheers Pete.
Thanks Pete, I have added one advert to the middle sorry. Need to fund this somehow! I wont riddle my content with ads, but one at the beginning and anotger in the middle will become the norm I'm afraid.
@@LambChopRides yeah no worries chops, I have a 701 now and I'm looking to do similar things to it , even though it's awesome standard , I want more wheelies haha
Hi Chops, I’ve been after a tacho for mine since I bought it last year but couldn’t find anything I liked- but thanks to you I ordered the Berotec unit this morning. Really interested to see how the upgrades go- especially the led light upgrade. Keep up the good work!
Excellent video, nice n informative, I have a 2007 690 SM, the beaker! Gray area racing in the USA do nice range of flow matched injectors, I have a 550cc max flow per min version, also I have removed the 2nd 3rd gear restriction, massive K&N , keep up the great work!
Cool! Should be a right little naughty sausage when it’s all done. I’ll be following this with interest. I’ve done a number of rebuilds and been in PS magazine, with the SRAD in my profile pic. You’ll have loads of fun over winter with that one, chops. Great content as always. 👍👍👍
Lovely bike MrChops. any chance to get a decent dash on these things? Ryan from F9 was talking about one back in the days. maybe its worth checking it out.
Yes, the Akra can looks er well....... crap to be blunt !!, plenty of blingy bling bling ! upgrades to go on, very interesting mod series. Oh MC btw.👍👍🇬🇧
Great build, I have a 17 701, one of the first mods I did was getting rid of the hideous blinkers. As sexy as your bike will be I’m sure that’s on your list 🤙
Do you have the supermoto ABS dongle? I’m fitting one with a switch next to the map switch. The switch I have looks good next to it and is the same size.. lights up too!
I want the air intake kit on my 2020 SMCR only my dealer says it voids the warranty guess I need to wait a couple of years any thoughts or response from your dealer.
Beautiful bits and bobs👍🏻 ohhhhh ya, really look forward to this series, and even more so for the Ducati rebuild. Save some room in the budget for her🔴⚫️ You’re the best chops! Take care of that back 💪🏻
Hi chops seeing as we are building the same kit for the same bike can we work together?that way if you make any mistakes I won't 😂, also might be worth getting a oberon clutch slave kit, Berkshire way so wouldn't mind advice, I also have a rev counter on mine.

Engine parts are almost ready I'm told so back after this project 👍
@@LambChopRides Yes finally! I lovw that bike!
I’m waiting for the Hypermotard to come up for sale!
Hey Chopssy - what’s the size of this bike like for you? I’m looking at one but am a big lad - 6’2” and heavy!!

I was lucky enough to find one for sale with all these mods already done and only 900 miles on it. The bike is an absolute dream machine.
You'll love the Rottweiler right at the "grabs gob of throttle" point on a ride. Runs as it should. With a Wings pipe/stcok header.
Yes hoping it's going to be like that 👍
Brilliant! Looking forward and maybe you can find some inspiration from Crashking 😉
Thanks 😁 and already have! 👍👍
The ULTIMATE supermoto. Love these bikes!
great...went to youtube and this notification popped up...life is manageable. gonna watch it now. excited
Dont be shy to make longer vids chops 😋
When I bag up my parts I tape them to the item they came from. Really handy for body work.
Yes good idea that Steve, should have done that with the Hypermotard..
@@LambChopRides yeah it makes it easier.
Keen for more Hyper vids coming soon.
Looking forward to something epic ! the SM Project gears look fantastic
Get the Tekmo header and then either the Akra exhaust or FMF 4.1
Seat concepts seat is amazing, got one on mine. I can ride it all day now.
Always the best build series on the tube
Always wanted a supermoto and I want even more since I've been watching your bloody channel. Great stuff Chops 👏

Keep up the good work!
Good to hear Robert! Hoping to fit mine very soon! Excited to see what its like 😁
do you still have this bike as just looking into them what is the difference between the SMRC and enduro version please

Chops it cold here in Georgia 18 degrees Fahrenheit , interesting buy , can you still own 2 stroke bikes in the UK
Only enduro models made by KTM
I appreciate you doing this. Just got a 690. Probably just going to copy you lol.
How do you get the dash to show orange??
A few important things not being done. 1. Sub-frame strengthening kit. 2. Manual cam chain tensioner. 3. Motor Master front disc. 4 ABS dongle etc.
I have one of those things coming, not heard of any cam chain tensioner issues or weak subframe..

Thanks mate! Yes I love a big single you certainly need one 😁
@@LambChopRides any chance you can tell my wife that? 😆
Sweet chops sweet looking forward to the rest 😋 xxx
Is 690 or hypermotard better? Well I think that hypermotard is generally faster but which one is better in curves?
Both on par I would say... SMCR better of the really tight stuff
Do you have the supermoto ABS dongle? I’m fitting one with a switch next to the map switch. The switch I have looks good next to it and is the same size.. lights up too!
No I dont.. might get one of those! 👍
do a seat concepts XL comfort seat ...you will love it
Great content as always. Really looking forward to this project..... And eventually, the continuation of the Hyper saga 😀👍
Do you reckon if I put a pcv in my A2 restricted smcr I could make it full power? Obviously with an A2 power mode
No as I think they restrict it in other ways than fuel.. not sure how exactly but would be surprised if that worked
Hi Chopsy
I would get an Austin Racing full exhaust set up, can’t be beaten for sound and power gains, they really work well with KTM’s👍🏻
Trouble with the AR exhaust is they are just too loud and I want to use this on track.. so needs to be below 101 db with baffle 👍
They do a choice with baffle at 94db👍🏻
Been waiting for this one Chopsey 👍😁 Perfect timing as mine is now looking bored sitting in the Garage.....She needs some Attention 😉
Looks like fun.
Lost already mate! Great video. 😀👍
I want the air intake kit on my 2020 SMCR only my dealer says it voids the warranty guess I need to wait a couple of years any thoughts or response from your dealer.
Yes it will void warranty, but beauty of PC5 is remove everything before you take it to them!
Always liked the look of the Seat Concepts products - suit the larger gentleman? ;-)
I got one, so much better, 100% worth it
Doesn’t that big Akro have a cat in it?
