Good idea to check valve clearances while you're there. Thank You for this!

The ones to pay attention to are the ones on the right of the bike, furthest from the chain, those are the ones that will be starved of oil first if any and they really need checked by 10 to 12k as they have been a problem on the 790, if buying one over 10k get it checked out prior to sale or it could be pricey and even though KTM know this is a problem they wont fix it for you

2020 was the 790. If your is an 890, it’s a 21+ Thanks for sharing. I was happy to see the view slots. I’ve got mine all pulled apart. About to check the cams on my 790.

You don’t really have to make sure the chain doesn’t drop. There is a bolt perpendicular to the plain of the chain that makes it impossible for the chain to drop down into the engine (at least on my 890 adv r there is). You can see this bolt if you look down into the slot of the chain.

So were your valve clearances within specification?

I wonder if the 790 are the bikes that CFmoto have built. Makes me hesitate buying one of their new 450s

It's a tough deal checking the valves. Look at the diagrams of the sliding followers. You have to do it by feel if you don't pull the radiator. Check that the sliding followers are in the right place at every step. Check clearance at the end while holding the follower in place, or you might pop out a shim. I'd trade a few ounces of extra weight to make the cam bridge less fragile to get rid of that dumbass KTM procedure and the potential disaster of losing a shim and not realizing it. I'm sure there is an Austrian engineer very proud of saving a few ounces and creating this insane system.

Seems there are the rockers problems. The cf moto 800 with same motor haven't this issue. Try to find the video: Проблема с моторами КТМ LC8c. Разбираем нашумевшую тему с плохим конструктивом моторов КТМ 790/890. it discusses in detail the causes of problems and possible remedies for their elimination (video in 4 parts)

The discoloration on the cams is an early sign of stress on the cam. And going off other 890 cams what had similar discoloration before failing it will increase over the milage. Another inspection at 10,000km will sadly show the increase. Check out KTM Failed Camshafts because many have the same issue. Camshafts should last the life of the bike and discoloration shows what’s inevitable to come.

Hi! I’ve got a question. I’ve checked cams in my 2018 Duke 790. And I have an issue with exhaust cam followers at Cylinder 2. They moved out of a valve and I can’t move them back. Referring to instruction - I’ve rotated engine to OT2 and still I can’t move them back. Do you maybe know a solution? Thanks

Hey sorry I dont know how to help - didnt take mine out - hopefully soon someone will do a vid on taking the cams out and replacing them.
@AlamosaOutdoors2 күн бұрын
That happens when the shims are not fully seated. Check them closely and you may even need to hold it down with a pick while sliding the followers back.

I lost all trust in KTM, when they started production in China. That's a Cf-Moto 800 MK or MT engine. Changing the parts is not a big deal. if you can do basic maintenance, which includes adjusting the valve clearance, you can also swap out the cam shafts. It's a valuable skill and not hard to learn. Problem is the price of the parts. Both camshafts are around $800 and then there are the rockers, which are around $100 a piece.

These marketed and glorified Euro bikes have been second rate since the beginning , anyone own the early dukes . The dukes that leaked unfiltered air after the air filter box , poor builds always have been across the board . Victims of GFC the fanboys defending then , Austria had a ton of money while most countrys financially suffered . Cue billion dollars of contracts to sell and protect or contracted no comment on poor quallity ktm bikes . Amazing how humans get sold on something there told is good haha , like this is a new thing with ktm . 16 years so far of the same thing , Euro bikes deceived the masses well.
