I don’t even own a KTM, yet. But this build makes me want one even more.
I've been building bikes for 30 years just as my hobby, your bikes are by far the best builds. This shows how great your fit and finish is on every bike...what a very sweet ride, super nice job!
That’s very kind of you. These bikes are works of art to us and we treat them acordingly
Building suck ups ya mean.
@@Crust2013🤜🏽🤛🏽
Love the idea of Taco Moto Co. doing a full build then flying in and riding away...Let the planning/budgeting begin!
That thing is crazy man good work. This is a super nice looking bullet proof bike. Insane 👍🏼
badass!!! for those of you that don't know, Mike at Taco Moto Co is a GOD when it comes to anything ktm, or any dirtbike for that matter. As far as innovation, rebuilding and maintenance and tuning is concerned, there's really nobody better than taco moto co. His product, bike and accessory knowledge is second to none. He treats every customer's bike like it's his own and doesn't cut corners anywhere. If you want it done right, there's no better place to take your bike than to mike and his team at taco moto co. while you're there ask him about the next taco tour coming up and be prepared to have a blast riding dirtbikes and chowing down on some bomb ass tacos. I promise you; it'll be an experience you won't forget. Braaaaaaaap!
A+ on the build Mike. I have beat the hell out of 500 cc bikes and every mod you made has hard-trail merit. Well done. 🏁🤙
Another great one, finally just got my 500 properly calibrated with the WIGET app so stoked
That bike is awesome!! Nice build!!
The graphics look amazing!!!
Awesome bike!!
Love the attention to detail. I swapped the chrome bolts on my P3 pipe guard with black titanium ones and it really cleans up the look. Just something to consider for future builds ✌🏻
Love the idea. We just started on with a new titanium hardware supplier so look for that exact kind of upgrade coming soon 👌🏽
Great build Mike that's exactly the build I'd do though on a 350 and with a bigger tank.
Love the heat shields. One suggestion is heat shielding for the 6 inches inside the right leg behind the frame. I've burnt my soft luggage straps on that twice when laying the bike over with a hot bike. Only takes 3 seconds of contact to destroy a perfectly good strap on $1000 soft luggage.
Thanks for your kind words, and noted on the strap protection 🤜🏽🤛🏽
LOL!! I see you are doing what I have for years by safety wiring brake clips. Also marking fasteners with Dykem Cross Check is a smart move. All it takes is one time losing a brake pin to ruin a ride!! Good job on the build Sir!!
Great video and bike as usual. How do you remove the forks with the top shrink covers? Also, installing the fork stanchion covers you must have to remove the forks to install, then cleaning the forks must be difficult because they don't have a zip or velcro fastening system. Is a strip out the forks to clean? Appreciate your time.
very cool build. Did you do anything to deal with the fuel issue?
Woof, love it, Should have had you do mine instead of my trying to do it myself! =)
next time, we fully got you. from sourcing the bike to building it out, breaking it in, delivery coordination. you name it, we got you.
You guys rule! This build is insane. Any issues with front brake cables clearing hand guard mounts? I’ve tried several full wrap handguards and they all chew away at cables as the suspension is working up and down.
Thats badass
What a sick build, I might have to send my husky your way.
Let’s tacobout it ⚡️🌮⚡️
heatshield products lava tube shield for the wrap above the exhaust
wow. now I need a 300 for durango..love my 450rl but need lighter bike for some single track. WILL BE IN TOUCH
Sounds rad
Hit us up and let’s tacobout it ⚡️🌮⚡️

You're building quite a nice business there Mike. I've been watching you grow. Maybe you can expand i to the 690 sumo and Enduro and 890 ADV.
that's great to hear you say that and thanks for the kind words. look for 690+ stuff from us very soon!
What kind of heat shield are you using on the header pipe and hose?
Can you expand on the heat shield? Is it simply wrapping the pipe near the shock?
Same here, more info would be awesome, especially a link to the heat wrap material that they used. @TACOMOTOCO , more info please!!!
Who makes the fold in mirrors behind the hand guards ?
I also want to know this, @TACOMOTOCO can you please share the link to this product?
Holy Viz Torque
I just got a 2020 fe501 and it’s bogging a lot. I think it’s one of the fuel filters but I’m not sure. It’s only at the mid to top end of the powerband and doesn’t seem to always do it
Hey Taco! Did you guys give up on the Beta 500?i picked one up and love some direction
Hi great work. I am in Saudi Arabia and I just bought used 2016 500 EXC six days. I want to change all the plastic and stickers on it. Any suggestions where I can buy them online from USA?
I also need to change front and back tires. Would love your suggestion for sand/road.
My chain rattles when I enter third gear. I checked the slack and it is in range as per manual. Any idea what could cause it?
What tires did you put on this? size? Also, what gearing on the sprockets? Thank you.
What’s the all-in cost? This looks incredible.
Do you have a parts list?
Can you say more about the Taco Moto suspension program?
we now have a full in house suspension shop and can do all WP set ups, A-kit programs, ohlins, and are developing a line of specialized internal components and kits. much more on all of this coming soon
all the extras on the bike and chose not to have a cushion hub because of weight?
What plastic kit is that on it?
Nothing like spending 10k on a 14-15 k bike. Looks sweet tho
What tires are on there? Size?
What’s the part # for the xtrig preload adjuster? their website doesn’t show anything definitive for ‘24 exc-f’s
Email us, we have the part number for this unit
Info@tacomoto.co
Would you recommend the 500 or the 450 if you were doing some a lot of slow speed technical terrain?
350 or 500 for that
Is there a SAMCO SPORT HOSE UPGRADE KIT for the 2024s now?!?
yes, should be up on the taco moto web site
@@TACOMOTOCO The Taco website lists hose kits for up to '23 EXC models only.
Any idea where he got these graphics? I’ve been wanting to do a grey/white/orange design on my 2019 350 EXCF
ALSO, what size are the tires he is running?
Email us at graphics@tacomoto.co and we’ll get you set up with a set
Front tire is 80/90 size, rear is 120
Do you loose low end going to a graves slip on vs. this exhaust setup?
slightly yes. but the graves shines in the mid to top end and has lighter weight and looks for days.
What is a rough cost of parts and labor for a build like this?
Through the taco build program a bike like this will be in the $14.5k range plus bike
@@TACOMOTOCO$14.5k all in with the dyno break in?
Motoz Tractionator ________? You should know the name of the product you sell.
Thanks, we’ll try and be better next time
I’m in the market for a adv bike. Could a bike like this handle 30 pounds of gear? Also, how would a bike like this handle on the freeway ?
It can def handle that weight and will also do highway transit sections 👌🏽
@@TACOMOTOCO thanks for the reply. So by transit sections, you are saying good for a short ride, correct? I have to ride 3 hours to get to the trails to go off-road. I really want a bike to do BDR types of rides. I’m thinking maybe a 701 might be better. Thoughts?
Ballpark cost?
Through the taco build program a bike like this will be in the $14.5k range plus bike
Pissed he can get the ruby and I cant
65 came in the other day. Look for them to be back up on the site next week 🤘🏽
It’d be great if you could let everyone know, what sort of money all this mod work costs, including parts and labor, plus or minus say $500usd , knowing that prices change, thanks.
6k easy
@@RayzGarage thanks, that’s about $29000 Australian, we can buy in all the same gear in Oz including the bike for $24000 Au.
Highly recommend Taco Moto’s Ultimate build program! The Ultimate build may not be for everyone but for what I wanted it was perfect. I didn’t want to do the labor myself, mainly because I suck at it. I also wanted my 24’ 501s to perform in all areas, from Baja to Colorado BDRs and everything in between. The bike has been awesome and for me and where I’m at in life it was worth every penny I spent on it!! Thanks again Mike and the crew!!
We don’t like to disclose what any particular customer spends on a specific bike but if a new machine came in looking to do a similar set up the budget would be in the $13-15k range plus the bike
@@michaelflores7657 thanks mike, can't wait to do your video review. your bike is arguably the best set up and equipped 24' 500/501 on the planet!
This thing is beyond overkill lol. Not even graham jarvis needs all of that
As it happens we know Grahm so well ask him what he thinks.
Pretty good chance he’ll dig it as much as this owner does
No need to judge. I’m a new a rider considering a build like this. Why? Because I can.
Horrible
couldn't agree more. motorcycles are dangerous and dumb and the outlaws and semi-professional criminals who do them are a menace. support your local pickle ball teams and cake sales instead.
@@TACOMOTOCO 0 so dangerous,looks like a 🥒 too.
@crust2013
Glad you like it so much and many thanks for checking our out channel and build projects 🤜🏽🤛🏽
Hey Mike,I just picked up a 2024 ktm 500 exc,it’s deleted with the titanium fmf 4.1 and running a euro map with reeds still in the air boot…This bike feels super underwhelming! All I hear is how they’re a beast… not so much from my experience so far…will the vortex be a significant difference over a euro map? I just need some more power. I was thinking of even going down a tooth up front to a 13t and leaving the stock 48 rear sprocket to see how that does before changing the rear as well,that should give me a bit more punch that I’m looking for. But my question is mainly about the vortex compared to euro map..will I even notice it? Or will the 13t front sprocket provide more seat of the pants feeling than the vortex ecu? Thanks! Love the content btw! Good stuff!
@@michaelpmorgida just picked it up?where at? The ground...
I bet this bloke has more money than talent. Looks great but just buy the motor and build the rest.
What does it matter really as we all practice our hobbies in our own way don’t we
Nick, why you so salty? Stay mad
