When TC is on if it feels you braking traction it will start to cut power to limit slip which is generally what you want to happen, but when I’m going 180 the last thing I want is the bike to lunge forward because the ecu decided to cut throttle it can be jolting and mess you up, maybe potentially cause a crash if it happens at a bad time. I raced this bike on the track alot and always had TC off so I was used to letting the back slide if it needs to and was able to control it

Thanks for the reply I live in newyork I wanna try this taconic parkway I never went to 180 yet .. Btw what you using mode slick or race ?

race mode majority of the time. Race mode still has some wheelie control active which i also hated but turning TC off takes care of that so its practically the same as slick mode minus maybe a few degrees of allowed lean angle on throttle@@Pesting_Yawa

The 16 didn’t come with reeds in the intake so you don’t have to worry about removing that, but it does come pretty smogged up elsewhere. You can find a cheap Des mpg kit online for like 20 bucks with a few tuner sod bolts and maybe washers that let you pull off some hoses and a charcoal canister to free that up. You also will deal with flameout pretty bad stock, and even worse if adding an aftermarket exhaust. Back in 2016 the best fix was adjusting the TPS but over the years I’ve found with the Ktm’s the best route is to leave the tps stock and get a fuel tuner, jd , bday, multiple brands sell them but they are all the same unit and work great at eliminating flameout stalling, and smooth out power everywhere

@@mazzeo321 thanks for that. Good info

They can be, if it’s all you ever do is highway riding maybe a 701 would be a better choice for sustained high speed/ higher rpms, but I did plenty of highway riding on my 500. It’s important to have the proper gearing for the type of riding your going to do. Sprockets are cheap and quick to swap out and I had multiple chains set at different lengths, I had 13-15t fronts and 42-50 tooth rears. I might run 13-48, 15,42, all depends on the type od riding but obviously the bigger the rear the lower your top end is and more torque you have on bottom end, smaller rear sprocket for highway riding

Yup

the kill switch on the right side is the stock kill switch that comes on EXC model bikes, the headlight switches on the left side are made by Sicass Racing and can be bought online

@@mazzeo321 thanks bro, then the onces in EU prolly comes different.

Yes i have the core exp 3.0 on my 2016 and the new radius cx on my 2020 ktm 500, i love the rekluse it made riding tough mountain single track 100 times easier.

I paid 677 with tax directly from project sc, its always recommend to get new fuel mapping with an exhaust but i wouldn't say it was necessary i did not get an ecu flash and the bike ran fine

It was the bestdualsportsbikes.com end cap, it is much wider opening than stock and freed the bike up alot much louder and better flow than stock end cap and a good option if you dont want to go with a new muffler, i had it on temporarily just to hold me over until i could get my fmf and with my new bike went straight to fmf muffler and a fuel tuner is the best way to go

Theres nothing to build its just wheels and a caliper bracket so it comes down to what are you going to do with the bike? If its strictly supermoto you might want the smc, i like the exc because i ride alot of offroad and enduro type riding so if i had the smc i wouod be stuck with road only. If i wanted a full on supermoto and didnt want go ride dirt i would probably just choose the 690

@@mazzeo321 i would be riding only on the road. I kinda dislike thr smc because of the weight difference.

This bike is street legal anywhere, but it comes from the factory that way that's why it's an enduro and not a dirt bike. It was a 12k bike but meets all emissions standards and DOT laws for a street legal motorcycle. Technically NY will not issue you a plate for a dirt bike even if you add lights and all that stuff If the title says for offroad use only on it, but there are ways around this such as registering the vehicle in another state that will give plates to dirt bikes such as vermont

@@mazzeo321 So is this the only bike thats legal in NY ? I wanna buy one real soon to ride around and wheelie ect Thanks

@@joe-jz1dg all of KTM "EXC" bikes are street legal from the factory.

@@joe-jz1dg husqvarna also makes some street legal 4 strokes but they are literally the same exact bike as the ktm exc

@@mazzeo321 Are they cheaper ? I am buying a ninja 600 new and want another to learn wheelies on first like a dirtbike but to be legal on road too so supermoto came to mind. Just dont wanna spend as much as i am on a 600 ninja or more on it ya know lol.

The same voltage does not work for everyone and every bike, it's a good place to start and then you dial it in until it runs perfect

The graphics I had on in this video are KTM factory enduro graphics kit it comes with front plate and the number plates in all black you can search google and find a place with them for your year bike

thanks im glad you like the bikes and the videos, just posted a new video of the monster with the new exhaust you should check it out

You prolly dont care but does anyone know of a tool to log back into an Instagram account?? I was dumb forgot my login password. I would appreciate any tips you can give me!

@Julian Armani Instablaster =)

@Kaysen Graham thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site through google and I'm in the hacking process atm. Takes a while so I will reply here later with my results.

@Kaysen Graham it did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D Thanks so much, you saved my account!

Rondo Cat I recently worked on a 2018 Ktm 500 to adjust the TPS, it is possible but they made it harder to get to. I chose to loosen the clamps on the throttle body and rotate it by prying it with a long flathead screwdriver and then was able to get a torx bit in there to loosen the tps and adjust it. They also changed the plug so a older generation tps adjustment plug won’t fit, I ended up cutting the wires and splicing in a connected that I could hook my meter up to and test the voltage that way

The cover that is protecting the tps is the hardest part to get off because the screws are behind the frame once the cover is off it’s not too hard to adjust the tps itself. I left the cover off for now so I could make adjustments over time if needed

I'm 5'8.5" and can tippy toe both feet. You should be okay.

Josh Nance glad I could help, since this video I’ve had quite a few other bikes and found a phone mount called Ram Mount that works great, they make one that goes in the same hole in the triple tree and is rock solid at any speed great mount worth looking into. You can order them on amazon and get them in a few days

@@mazzeo321 mate,can you please drop the link for ram mount and I couldn't find

antoine1998 USA Exc models are all street legal so they all come with a key that does both ignition and steering lock, if it didn’t have a key anyone could just walk up and ride away with your bike on the street
