Dude this build series has been such a treat to watch and made my own rebuild so much easier, so thank you.

[@DanMX2112]

Thanks man! I’ll be back on those videos very soon! Thanks for watching and stayed tuned as we wrap this baby up!!!

[@alanporter2769]

Thank god you made this build tutorial would be lost without it

[@DanMX2112]

Thanks for watching, glad they help you!

Almost identical to the 200’s! Could be worth adding this to your vid description/ title for more views

[@DanMX2112]

Sorry for the hold up on video’s! I’ve been having major computer issues and think we have them worked out! Thanks for the love and we should be more frequent from here on!!

[@noobspawnersstreams4102]

ever have pc issues hit me up i build gaming pcs :)

[@DanMX2112]

Thanks for the heads up brother! I actually run a Mac, and when this happened my video card crapped out. Ended up finally getting rid of the old MacBook and got a M1 Pro. Love it!

[@noobspawnersstreams4102]

@@DanMX2112 macs are good but this is why i stick with pc id rather replace a part than a full system apart from that i was a huge mac fan

[@DanMX2112]

I was actually going to replace the video card, but by the time I paid for it, my computer wasn’t worth it. I was outside of that seven year update period anyways.

[@freetaylor72]

Man these are great videos, I have a 01 ktm 200 and your motor looks exactly like mine. I've looked for videos on my motor and can't really find good quality vids, so thanks for taking the time and going into detail on tearing down and putting back together these engines

[@DanMX2112]

Awesome dude, glad this is helping you out. It’s hard work, but so worth it to rebuild your own and learn how they work. Thanks for watching!

[@user-uq7wd6em5k]

Many thanks for this video

[@DanMX2112]

You’re welcome sir!

[@local378]

Awesome job thanks

[@DanMX2112]

Thanks man, appreciate it!

[@davidficke3474]

To loosen fasteners with Red Loctite use a heat gun to heat the fastener and the Loctite will release with enough heat. A heat gun does the job, you do not need a torch.

[@DanMX2112]

Right you are sir, and I do avoid torches and use a heat gun whenever necessary. That being said, the reason I avoid red is this, I’ve never had anything come loose using blue, and everything comes out Easily. I’ve never had anything come loose using red, but have had multiple struggles with red, heat or not, releasing. I’ve stripped countless threads, had gummed up threads, and overall a bad experience with red. Red is meant for permanent applications, as it reads on the packaging, therefore I am just using it as advertised and based off my experience. It’s kinda like the oil talk lol I’ll always recommend blue over red, any day of the week. I’m glad you made this comment because it allows me to clear up that I’m not against red, just I don’t personally use it. Thanks David, and please reach out if I can help my friend! Take care!

[@user-uq7wd6em5k]

Could you tell us the assembly grease reference please

[@user-uq7wd6em5k]

Sorry we can see it in the description thanks

[@Mtfz0707]

There are torque specs to the primary gear nut and clutch basket. Both are supposed to be torqued to 130nm/95 ft lb so i hope you see this before putting everything together

[@DanMX2112]

Heck ya! I figured it was probably a bit more than the 45 I did, but think it will be fine where I have it. My YZ450F is 43 on clutch and 53 on primary, so I figured all is well. Thanks for pointing that out my friend!!!

[@the2idiots380]

Hi mate where did you get the stator cover ?? Love the build by the way just wish there were more videos like ever couple of days or something 👍

[@DanMX2112]

I have been having major computer issues with editing and exporting, hence the long wait times. I’m almost worked through the issues and should be kicking them out faster. I have 4 videos ready to edit lol craziness!!! Thanks dude!

[@DanMX2112]

I got the stator cover off Rocky Mountain ATV MC website. They discontinued the magnesium covers and when with the poly ones. It was very inexpensive too!!!

[@frencvoo1960]

Hey, I have a 08 is the Motor a little bit the same like yours?

[@DanMX2112]

Almost exactly the same. I think they had a few minor changes to the clutch and head.

[@baysandclays]

I have a manual that goes from 99 to 2006, what year is your bike, happy to look those up.

[@DanMX2112]

04! And I think it’s like 100ft lbs on that also, but the difference is not enough to change the sealing effect on the crank I’m sure. Let me know! Thanks!

[@baysandclays]

@@DanMX2112 primary gear nut is 180 Nm (133 ft.lbs), inner clutch hub nut is 120Nm (88 ft.lbs). There is also a chart for other bolts that do not otherwise have a torque spec. M6 10 Nm M8 25 Nm M10 45 Nm

[@DanMX2112]

Heck ya, thanks my guy! I really appreciate it!

[@baysandclays]

@@DanMX2112 May want to use the EBC tool to go to 88 ft.lb. I just broke my new inner clutch basket with the tusk clutch holder right at the torque wrench clicked 88 ft.lbs. The ebc tool has many points of contact

[@DanMX2112]

That’s part of the reason I was hesitant on torque. Idk why KTM needs it so tight, I personally feel it’s very much overkill. Sorry to hear you smashed it up.
