Man, you guys went with the pure Baja/Dakar esthetic. I absolutely love that set up. Those are my dream bikes. They should carry you anywhere in the world that you'd want to be. I can't wait to see the videos of those adventures.
Thank you buddy, glad you like our set up!
Just found you guys.. love your content…enjoy …
Cheers for saying so, Dale! That’s encouraging that you encountered our channel - you never know what the algorithms are up to from one day to the next! Much appreciated, Lisa and Jase 👊
DAAAAANGGGG that was awesome build... i love it..
Thanks bud!
I don't have a truck so i chose to get a 21' 690 enduro which i absolutely love, but later on 100% see myself getting a 500...sweet ride
Thanks bud, we like it.
👏👍💪😎
awesome thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
Looks awesome ! I’m so jealous.. bikes look brilliant.. and tft screen things look amazing ! Good luck
Thank you
Bikes are looking great. That’s some serious kit you’ve got there! Looking forward to the adventure starting
You and me both!
Great stuff…. nearly identical setup. Be aware the IMS tank might settle and start to rub the engine on the inside. Myself and a friend, independently found raising with washers on the centre mount. I supported it with high density foam above and below. Also some neoprene patches on rub areas. Found the tank also started to rub on the toolbox ….. changed the angle of the toolbox but eventually ditched due to weight and width in tight spaces. Doesn’t hold that much either😌. I went with Adventure Men Cave with lower and detachable screen. Debatable evidence but heat reflective sheet
on inner surface of the tank and wrapped the exhaust due to proximity to rear shock and radiated heat but not seen either done elsewhere. All dates back to 2020 and there may be improvements as that was in essence a new model at the time. Taco/Mike Spurgin are experts…. Looking forward to it!
Thanks bud, I too have experienced the same issues with the skid plate/toolbox and the IMS tank - time will tell. Thanks for the heads up. 👍
Nice job guys!! I'd love to ride those stunning bikes!
Right on!
I just recently picked up a FE 501 for similar reasons and to use as an Enduro. Love this video series!
Thanks for watching
Watching this helped me relive my FE501 build which has some similarities. Running through my head watching this are two things: How much Loctite did you use?...and how much this channel feels like the beginning of Sailing La Vagabond as you head into new adventures. So cool.
Gallons of Loctite 😂 Glad you enjoyed it.
Just started watching, think i will have to go back over the old stuff. Good job on the bikes.
Cheers and hope you like! 🙏
Hi guys hello from sunny Derbyshire 😉. I’ve only just found your channel, and you are fast becoming one of my favourites, keep the content coming I’m loving it. Friendly banter, great teamwork, mechanical workmanship, brilliant cinematography and editing and two awesome custom bikes. It clear to see that you are both genuine people who love what your doing. Thanks for taking us along for the ride. Hope to see you on the trail sometime.
Thanks for your kind words, glad you are enjoying it.
Well done... Love the new intro!
Thanks bud.
Love it guys! Bikes look sweet, and the blooper bit at the end made me chuckle! I know how time consuming these videos are to film and (especially) edit. Keep it going, looking forward to more!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Nicely done. Time for some fun. Enjoy
Always!
Great footage, liked seeing the 500 change, something I'm considering- just subbed and rang that bell👍😂
Thank you buddy.
Great choice with the rear rack bikes looking good👍
Thanks
Awesome content guys! Just received my tablet from Thork yesterday! The sounds of drills/dremels stress me out, but looked like Jason is a pro!! Looking forward to the next video!!!
Awesome! Thank you!
Ahh, the joys of fishing the fuel pump into the new tank, haha. I see that skid plate is similar to the one with storage that @RTWPaul used on his 500. Looking forward to the next video!
Yes it is, but rtwpaul has a better designed skid plate and toolbox design in my opinion. He has the 2016 and the exhaust header sweeps up higher so he can have a toolbox across the front.
both bikes look so sharp!!! the 500 is an amazing platform. wishing you both safety and great weather ✨✨✨
Thank you 🙌
Did some tricky adjustments to parts there - thank goodness for the Dremel. Happy days.
Right on
Great video!
Thanks bud. 👍
I did the same mod on my Trail Tech stand, and it snapped off where the foot goes in. Happened in the middle of Montenegro so a lot of leaning after that.
Yes I can see that would happen.
Great Bulid !! Enjoy your adventures. I look for. the skidplate but in the description nomadv indicate that it dosnt fit the IMS 4.5 tank but in the build you use one. Could you please clarify this . Thank You!
It does rub a little on the tank so I had to grind a little bit off of the top of the toolbox.
THANKS !!. When in Mexico dont doubt to contact anything i can help . i`m about two hours from Palenque the mayans ruins in Mexico a must visit in Mexico. Great travel !!!@@fourwheelednomad
☺great video guys!!! 👍amazing job filming and editing!!! ;)
Thanks so much!!
@@fourwheelednomad 😲wow 500 subs!! congratts!!!
hello
A lot of weight was added with the upgrade, but were there any additional changes to the suspension?
In addition to that, I have to carry a lot of heavy luggage.
Is stock suspension enough?
Yes, the suspension was upgraded - that’s in a future video.
Great video. Makes me remember doing this same project for my wife and my KTM500s that we have been riding RTW. We have 2016 models.
Question: Why lower the kickstand. If your rear is sagging under the weight, you need a new rear spring, not a lower kickstand. A sagging rear will ruin your handling. These bikes are very sensitive to luggage and unless the sag is setup correctly, they can handle awfully with luggage. We travel with 20kg of luggage each, so we add a spring two sizes up from stock to compensate. Also did the fork springs. I'm sure you know all this, but wondering why you're cutting the kickstand if the suspension has not been lowered.
I agree. We had to ride them across the states to get the suspension work done, so the sag would be set top there - we just needed to get them over to Vegas so that was a quick fix. All will be made clear in the next few videos.
Agree, I run a 20kg higher spring on the back, the moment the sag is too much the drive out of corners goes away very quickly.
The sidestand problem with variable loads I solved with a Swiftkicker, brilliant on rough terrain and probably the best single mod on my EXC, available from Taco Moto.
@@jimtitt3571 We now have the swiftkicker too - fantastic piece of kit.
Obviously you are both experienced mechanics that work well together! Excellent video editing too. With the added weight what are you doing with your suspension? Are you in the industry and attending the Expo in a couple weeks?
We get the suspension sorted in a future video. Nope, not in the industry.
Great Bike set up.Thanks for sharing. I'm curious how tall are you Lisa ? Cheers guys !
I’m 5’5’’
will you be updating this channel with videos from your trip? can't wait to see those bikes in action, godspeed
Yes. The next one is the big off!
can't wait! also own a 500 and is a dream trip for me, so I'll be watching closely! all the very best, if you pass south Portugal let's ride a bit together :) @@fourwheelednomad
brilliant! can't wait, all the best!@@fourwheelednomad
Nice video and high quality content - thank you for sharing. Question: what is the purpose of this oil cap with tube in 10:28 ?
It’s for draining the oil during an oil change.
I have always been curious about the ktm platforms reliability. I have found that the Suzuki dr200s is the best for simplicity and reliability.
Got ya!
I ride motocross and never glue the throttle side. Just wier it cause it turns anyway
It's 2023 year model or 2024 year model?
It’s a 2023
How many liters of engine oil are there with the new cover ?
About 1.5 L total
You have missed alot of upgrades for an adventure build, you need a cush hub to save motor, running a capacitor parallel with battery cos if your battery dies you ain't going anywhere, but a permanent capacitor will keep enough power to run the bike but NOT start it.
ruclips.net/video/56NetuDLW7s/видео.htmlsi=YcJPgAJbd3Ge5iIb
Bikes are fitted with Cush hubs. More mods, in a future vid. 👍🏻
@@fourwheelednomadcan’t wait for that video of all the mods... just today you released a new video, but it doesn’t not seem to be it.
More mods in the coming weeks
