    Thank you for making this video! I bought the 300SX after watching you rip it up at Red Bud last Spring. I've been meaning to perform this service ever since I found out that KTM skimps on grease during the assembly process, and your video was exactly what I needed to get started. I followed your steps, along with my service manual for the torque specs, and everything turned out perfect. Took me 2 days by myself, but now it's ready. I haven't ridden it yet because it's been Winter, but will be doing so next weekend. Thanks again! I wish you the best of luck this season!

    Officer Walker!! The stache! 👍
    Everything you did to the bike is right on! So many guys don't grease their bike & even more don't install their front end & wheel correctly. Nice job man! 👏
    Even though that bike wasn't greased properly from the factory, it is WAAAAY better than the Kawasaki's are greased! My Kawasaki's basically had like a thin film of baby oil on everything. Like a really thin, clear oil more so than grease.
    That exhaust looks absolutely dope!! 😎

    Hey Jeff -- on the order of front end steps, why not change 2 and 6 to "snug upper triple clamp" since the fork height lines are in the upper clamp and might move/change a little when you tighten the steering stem nut with the bottoms snug? Just curious if there was a reason.
