KTM 500 EXC Supermoto Build | Part II

[@renegade1987]

lmao, when you said "i'm a trained professional" while cutting the chain in your flip flops XD

[@extec101]

also its easyer to grind both the pins down a bit in to the link and then just use a screwdriver to pick it apart.

[@fezsi]

The chain is massively over tight. The brake line and speedo cable should be to the inside of the fork leg not on the outside....

[@LambChopRides]

Yes was tight there, removed that extra link now and adjusted perfectly

[@vxlgsi]

Chain is way too tight!!!!!! You will destroy the front sprocket oil seal. Also flip the axel blocks to move the wheel closer. And the axel block on the spindle is threaded on so put it in a vice and tap it round to loosen.

[@LambChopRides]

It's sorted now 👍

[@easternmenace]

That's the kind of health and safety I like to see

[@colheg3113]

14 inch front Sprocket best of luck with fitting that !!! ;-) Maybe 14 tooth even !!!

[@bj0rnn0rgaard1996]

Put the standard axel blocks on and flip them the other way round so the long bit points back then you can take 1 or 2 more links out the chain and have lots of adjustment

[@samshimmin8562]

Search for "Next Level Supermoto Stunts - Arttu Stenberg ". Forget wheelies, that guy is on another level.

[@073Kvz073]

That is insane, seen the video and was shocked.. never seen that before, stoppie to wheelie🤪

[@spencersedgwick8994]

true professional flip flops and an angle grinder. Love it

[@andrewlewis2129]

Id cut more off the fork gaurds, ive ruined my wheels not cutting enough out.. also the ktm 690 for gaurds fit and aren't wrap arounds!

[@Ricqu]

You can still rock 160 and 150 wide rear tires with 4.25" rim, which makes tire changes so much easier when you have much more room with the rear caliper and the rim. Cheers.

[@martinakahamm3r70]

that is way to tight on the chain, on supermoto it should be about 3-4 cm loose

[@alexarks517]

Your chain is way too tight

[@jeremyharry6719]

Did your stock rear sprocket bolts fitted or you had to get new ones?????

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Nice work sir! ...and I do agree those wheels look peng, but "sexy"......nah mate, that's just wrong, as was that touching yourself thing which I'm struggling to unsee.... :0)

[@LambChopRides]

Haha, oh come on you just liked that bit a little to much didn't you 😂😂

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Lamb Chop Rides Now you're making it worse, I was just a little bit sick in my throat.....

[@Jajeweet]

Should have commented this on the previous video, but that front fender looks mint. Don't think I've seen anyone put that fender on a 500 exc.

[@neilcole3406]

Mr Chops,I can tell your a trained professional by the fact you are wearing safety sandals!! lol

[@axeman6560]

Very nice , that bike will bring out the hooligan in all of us!

[@Parakitedude]

This bike is so nice, I'm deciding between this and the 701 supermoto...heart vs brain...

[@piperpilot3667]

What about the suspension? It must be horrible riding stock enduro suspension on the road no?

[@patekMR]

great video... especially when you showed us how you got the rear wheel/tire to get on... NOT

[@mikeemery8846]

I’m a bit late to this party, the front brake lines should be inboard, rather than around the side. Crash proof.

[@MariosSaketos]

do the spacers you put in the rear wheel make it possible to fit a bigger tyre such as 150/60?becuase ive got a wrf 450 2009 and it rubs on the side.does it make the tyre go a bit to the right so it can fit without rubbing?

[@Dankeller69]

Trained professional with safety thongs on. Looks good with anodized orange.

[@tigerick7291]

That front sprocket doesn't look 14".😂

[@Codyjames83]

Bike's looking great but never take off the sticker off the tires it's bad luck go find yourself a four leaf clover to help the bad luck out 👍

[@taylor2105]

I got myself a 500exc and made every effort to get rid of the orange on it. It's almost entirely blue now. But you sure made the orange look magnificent on yours. Can't wait to see more of this. Subbed!

[@exactly3179]

Maybe you wanna upload a short video so i can see this beauty ? Ive never seen a blue exc but I thought about doin an exc blue with golden wheels and a red-white graphic kit just like my yamaha wr 125 x. But I have to wait until may 2020 to make my A2 license :( here my bike ( not mine but it looks the same) goo.gl/images/fY66X9 Greetings from germany ✌

[@waynehunter4605]

using a grinder over paper , no risk of fire there !! just saying.

[@oldfellafpv7770]

awsome build bro ....chain looks a bit on the tight side

[@jeremyfright9710]

Nice.....Bling everywhere 😍

[@mhopkins491]

How much fun is that bike i want to do a supermoto

[@willmahy7175]

Your music taste is phenomenal

[@seanenduro5940]

Do you get any chain rub with the 160 tyre?

[@gavinsenior50]

Top bike top tunes what more can a man want

[@Rowdy_Bikes]

X rated scooter for sure!! 😍😍

[@supermotoxcw7695]

@lambchopsrides was this a 5 rear rim?

[@HippoDrones]

Fruity.... looking good LCR :-) BTW, is the sidestand now too long or does it still work sorta?

[@tomt7727]

Beautiful bike, Would you still have the super moto wheel setup by any chance? i"m looking for the exact wheel and tire combo. Thank you ..

[@richierichtaylor1928]

Did you not get no issue with your 4.5 or 5.0inch wheel with chain rubbing along the edge of the tyre or did you offset the wheel or spacers used to correct sprocket alignment? Too solve chain rub. Nice bike, best supermoto to have on the road. 😎👌👍🤙

[@mackeycharli256]

Love the Chinese work boots 😂

[@SixthGearMotorcycles]

Mate it looks absolutely gorgeous! Love it 😍 Really want one like this too so watching carefully. Looking forward to reading the PB mag write up too! Great vid as always 😎👍

[@LambChopRides]

Thanks Griz 😎😎

[@jonnytheboy23]

Very enjoyable vid, bike looks amazing! I have owned a few Supermotos and they really are top fun.

[@midibudu]

Lets see that one against RJ 300 when its full builded!!

[@LambChopRides]

Yes that would be epic

[@exothermal.sprocket]

You may not have issues, but use a crimp-type chain splice instead of the cheap snap link. Save yourself a possible headache down the road.

[@samgab]

9:58 So you did take another link out after all, huh?

[@LambChopRides]

Yes I did after running it a few time

[@driffbro3380]

All along, I thought it was a 2t bike..

[@fcodijk]

all ktm 350 cc's and bigger are 4t and 300 and less 2t

[@brianantnssn5177]

When fitting a chain, put the adjusters all the way in, fit the chain with a bit of slack, and dial it out. Chains stretch so you always want to be able to back out the adjusters during the life of the chain. also, it is way to tight. for MX purposes, a general rule of thumb is 3 fingers under the chain at the mudguard is need. for road usage, 2 should be fine. If it hits the tire, fit a smaller tire, or you'll ruin both chain and tire, and maybe your engine crank cases as well.

[@brianantnssn5177]

P.S. you can rotate the KTM chain adjusters.

[@brianantnssn5177]

and put a zip tie around the front brake overnight, it will firce air to go up top.

[@LambChopRides]

Good tips thanks 👍

[@RPM-ty2ju]

now i want one myself ! great build enjoyed watching

[@leejones9737]

Well done LC! Beautiful components...Enjoy it GOOD LUCK2U Lmj

[@Parakitedude]

This bike is so nice, I'm deciding between this and the 701 supermoto...heart vs brain...

[@ESpaller11]

I highly recommend a set of these hand-guards: www.highwaydirtbikes.com/index.php?app=ecom&ns=catshow&ref=HDB-100 They clean up the handle bars, offer great crash protection, and have a mirror that folds away nicely.

[@andrewkapteyn]

I found these wheels online, bought a set of bfg ko2's for my suv with rims for not much more

[@RyanJM90]

Very nice! At what point did you notice you only had one blingy chain adjuster on? ;)

[@cn-vm6wx]

Your chain is to tight. When you sit on your bike The swingarm will bend in and the chain will get streched alot by that

[@TheOffroader7458]

Be good to see if its as good a allrounder as the 701 .very nice

[@benwright3314]

Let you off the cush drive, looks fit now. Nice build 👌

[@AAs-vb7pv]

Nice my dream bike is a ktm550 2 stroke supermoto

[@gabrieljohansson9593]

Hello! do you remember if its exacly the same hub spacers in the rear or if its diffrent on both sides?

[@dasp125]

Is it possible to fit a keyed ignition switch onto a Mx or Enduro bike? KTM salesman said it’s not because of the ECU’s on modern bikes.

[@SkinnySkinch]

Of course it is.. you just interrupt the power to the battery with a switch or relay and switch. They make lots of universal kits. The new bikes don't even have a kick start so without the battery you ain't going nowhere.

[@ninjanelly3506]

Looks bloody lovely Chops,and thank you SOOO much for not bloody singing!😉👏👏👏👍🏻😎

[@LambChopRides]

Your welcome 😂😂

[@bikerboi1983]

As someone else has said. You'll need to trim the entire side off the fork guards as the tyre will get bigger under braking so will cut into it. Or buy supermoto ones? Also you didn't refit the chain guard on the top to stop the chain eating the tyre??

[@LambChopRides]

Yes I have taken more off now

[@luke6645]

Very sexy! Oh and the bike isn't too bad either!

[@neilcole3406]

Once a Supermoto rider ..............always a Supermoto rider!!! Ye hah!

[@medpilot]

I fitted a 160 rear on my EXC500 with no rub issues. It was a huge PIA fitting it on though. It’s really tight. Next time I’m going with a 150 for ease of install. Beautiful bike btw.

[@sumphi9057]

180 michelin pp2 fits easy with no rubbing with a 5" rim. And getting that on takes about 15 seconds if you know how to do it.

[@krp6147]

Hey chop's love the vids, how much clearance did you have on the chain or does it still rub with those tyres. 👍😃

[@LambChopRides]

No it just clears by about a 1mm

[@RyanCarter-h3g]

Grinding disc to cut the chain? :D

[@Bimble]

Bike looks excellent man, but that closing shot was epic!

[@LambChopRides]

Hehe cheers

[@mekaniko1390]

Give me your stock hub and wheel

[@paulrobinson7881]

Looking good how did you go on with the chain rubbing ps love the buck Rodgers theme at the end 😁

[@LambChopRides]

It just clears by about 1mm so just got away with it 👍

[@OffsetFPV]

I see so many ppl put these rear rotors on backwards.

[@xandergoodwin8278]

What solution have you got for having no indicators

[@christopherdevries1969]

Looking nice with those wheels. Much better ! (Some ABBA next time, to complement the vid).

[@LambChopRides]

Will ensure I do Chris 😂😂

[@christopherdevries1969]

lmao .

[@charlietasker]

Good job fella.Proper fun looking bike What do you think the build cost is

[@LambChopRides]

A lot 😂😂 going to do an overview and price breakdown video soon 👍

[@syncronized1977]

i like this guy.. haha so funny..

[@andrewlewis2129]

And also the fs450 fork gaurds are also not wrap arounds

[@scottyd2262]

FS450's have wider triple clamps than the FE/EXC-f's

[@cdreery7304]

Has it ever seen the dirt?

[@themightyvinnie9825]

Just what the doctor ordered...

[@robertevans6418]

Nice graphics kit next chops

[@rorypaster2264]

Have you been able to change the wheel size on your speedo? Great build!

[@LambChopRides]

yes I did, have to remove a wire to the speedo and it opens up the option in the menu... Something like that..

[@unknownenemy66]

Nice bike good build but angle grinders n flip flops are not a good combo..

[@b.c.h4120]

Bench grinder is the way to go.

[@nineofoto]

My dad has a tall persons torso and dwarfs legs. I can therefore blame him for my genetic construction. I also have a long torso and diddy legs... I will never be able to ride an adventure bike, dirt bike or supermoto comfortably... However... I am the only person I know that car ride a sports bike all day and do not have to stretch my legs. Swings and roundabouts mate.

[@vxlgsi]

I'm short and have no problem

[@nineofoto]

@@vxlgsi you've inspired me.

[@vxlgsi]

@@nineofoto bikes are so light it just doesn't matter if your tip toe.

[@a64738]

With short legs the trick is to lean the bike and body only to the side without the rear break when stopping :) Using that technique even very short persons can ride it and that is good way to stopping anyway as then you can use both breaks or only rear... I did for a short while own a KX125 that had been modified with front and read shock from a RM125 and it was about 10cm taller then original. I could not reach down to the ground at all but that was not really a problem, when I had to stop I just jumped completely of the bike and when starting I jumped on the bike same way you would if doing a run start alone.

[@HEKTIC458]

Nice

[@rogerbarnes2565]

Very bling mate, nice.

[@johnalexander5891]

I did a similar thing to my dirt bike - but I fitted a second large disc onto my dirt wheel to avoid mucking around with the caliper every time you want to swap over. I also got a second set of front forks, valved & tuned for motard duties and swap them out at the same time

[@LambChopRides]

Great idea John, I want to get my suspension revalved for road use, will probably just put up with it when and if the bike goes offroad..

[@tjlovesrachel]

Just be careful that you don’t smash your disk on ruts and rocks

[@adz6539]

@@tjlovesrachel lol I smashed the front disc on a rock on my Husky when I let a friend ride it! lol he went up and around one corner then opened her up...I turned around to see my bike vertical with him in a perfect superman position before he let go.. it was hilarious, until I saw the disc....my bad.

Tyres measure ?

[@Lightspeeders]

WHAAt I wish I had so many free shit to build such an awesome bike. but no I have not

[@LambChopRides]

No free shit here Im afraid, all bought a paid for by me!

[@Lightspeeders]

Ha oke I thought this was a little sponsored video but when you bought all the stuff yourself makes it much more awesome. :-) I`m now just collecting money to buy myself a 1100 Tuono factory (2016). Rode this bike today after a MT09 , Superduke 790 and Superduke 1290 and i`m really sold by this bike from Aprilia. The 4v sound is just porn That would be a decent follow up for my R6 that I drive for more then 8 years already.

[@LambChopRides]

Yes for bikes like Duke which are going in the magazine I do get some support, but for the SM it wasn't going in the mag so bought the kit. However editor had a change of heart now its done and it has gone in haha. Tuono is incredible you wont be disappointed :-)

[@Lightspeeders]

No I believe you. Rode in 4th gear still made a not planned wheelie when I popped the gas... what an amazing power :) oee

[@Earlhelder]

Bling Bling ! :D

[@philiproberts6947]

What's your plan with Speedo calibration?

[@vxlgsi]

You just change the diameter in the menu

[@philiproberts6947]

@@vxlgsi this seems better than my WR where you needed to open up the Speedo unit itself and snip a grey wire which then allowed you to access this menu and change the wheel diameter.

[@vxlgsi]

@@philiproberts6947 you don't cut a wire just unplug one on ktms

[@LambChopRides]

Yes speedo already adjusted, unplug a wire then just enable the option in the clock to adjust rolling wheel distance

[@derekcahill181]

What front fender

[@Ac22768]

It’s a GFY.

[@sumphi9057]

Getting a 5" rear rim with a 160-180 tire should be easy and isn't hard with the ktm swingarm at all. There's a certain technique to it.
