  • Enjoying the new ride, but a few issues I'd like to share in the video as I didn't find a ton of info on what I was experiencing with an oil leak of the 2T oil reservoir, and a very rich issue on the fueling side which I sorted out.
    Pro's of this bike; suspension is nice and plush, once cleaned up the TBI has nice useable power, light clutch pull, the braktec brakes feel pretty good coming off Brembo.
    Cons; some of the stuff I talk about, which is more of a poor PDI issue than anything else and could have been avoided. Fuel economy not as good as my 22 EX 300 TPI, poor design on clutch master cylinder with the braktec clutch receiving the odd banjo bolt. This could be an issue with certain handguards hitting it and bending or loosening the bolt, happened to me already.
    I ordered a Model 3 throttle position sensor piggy back harness for the TPS sensor for $30 off amazon which makes checking your TPS voltage easier. The clip I showed I used paper clips to do it which also works but it sloppy.

    Yah dude sounds like a PDI issue unfortunately :( - Mine came perfectly set from the dealer I bought from but its true these TBI bikes do indeed need some proper PDI to ensure they are set up and if some dealers are not double checking then that is unfortunate. Glad you have things sorted now.

    Hey buddy. Any reason why you chose the EC over the EX? I'm considering a Gas Gas 300. $995 for the PDI you'd think they'd check the TPS.

    Definitely have to blip the throttle upon startup...

      Do you find that on yours you have to? Once I adjusted TPS voltage and idle was set it starts fine now with no throttle in gear.

      I agree ☝️ every single 2t I’ve known and had needs some throttle, probably because the spark plugs have oil in them

    Hi, Im having the same problem with being rich at 1/8 throttle. How exactly do you set the tps voltage? Thanks

      I bought an adapter ($20) that clips onto the TPS sensor, it then lets you plug in a volt meter and read it, if you search "KTM TPS voltage adjust" you should find videos. Mine was .450 volts, which is aways out towards the rich side you want to be at .400 volts but there is a process you have to follow.

    Hey Man, I've notice I've got that same oil leak, also got my bike from International. What did you do to fix the leak? I also had the same starting issue with my bike, I had to adjust the idle up just a little bit and fixed that right up. Edit: Helps when you watch the whole video.. I figured that's where the oil was leaking from.... I should look into checking the TPS Voltage on my bike

      Last Question, how big a pain in the ass is it to change out that hose clamp on the oil reservoir?

      @@Poco_Dirt_Muppet Not to bad man, if you bought from International we must be fairly close. I cut off the old one without taking anything apart, then snuck in a new hose clamp and tightened it up.
