KTM 1290 Super Adventure steering stabilizer rebuild

[@Near2Future]

The seals are called "QHWA10-20-7 / 8.5" I just bought ones off amazon with 10-20-7 they should fit I think. I'll edit this if they do.

11:00 How did you pull the valve damping out? Mine does not wanna fit over that. No matter how hard I hit it..

[@manuelzuniga1074]

Buenas, que aceite utilizaste para que la dirección se siente un poco más estable (Dura)? Saludos.

[@TourmotoDesign]

20w fork oil

Tip. Make sure the shaft is pulled out all the way when putting the seal back in. This is to ensure there is no pressure.

Where were you able to find replacement seals/orings?

[@javasoldier5926]

Thanks man. I almost started to heet bearing side with flamer 2 be able 2 remove it!

[@SauravKumar-ml4yj]

Very helpful video. I tried doing this and damaged the oil filter a bit. Would you know if I can get a spare from anywhere?

[@TourmotoDesign]

I was not able to find that part. I think I called it a filter in the video but it’s just a cushion so if it’s not too terribly damaged it’s will probably be fine.

[@SauravKumar-ml4yj]

Some Sort of Road Trip yeah slightly damaged the cushion. Also the damper is making hiss sound. I don’t know if it’s air bubble or just oil movement. In case there is some bubble left do u think it will cause a lot of issue. It still feels 1000 times better than stock though

[@TourmotoDesign]

Saurav Kumar you can slip a needle between the shaft and the lip of the seal and slowly move the shaft to bleed air out. Just don’t let the needle fall inside! And also be very careful so you don’t damage the seal. Edit: make sure to have the stabilizer standing up while you do this so all the air goes to the end you have the needle in. Can’t do it after it’s installed.

[@javasoldier5926]

2 remove air bubles needle can be used. Just carful isert it beetween seal and shaft and push it on the seating place. All bubbles + some oil will go outside. After that just remove the niddle

Hi there, very helpful video, any tips where to get the replacement seals?

[@TourmotoDesign]

I had my Ktm dealer find them. It took them a while to find

[@Mighty-yi6fy]

@@TourmotoDesign Thanks for the info, I will try that as I was not able to find them anywhere online.

[@chaosflash7]

@@TourmotoDesign This is a long shot but could you get the size of the seals? I'm trying to rebuild mine but my dealer couldnt find anything and im currently getting help from a local shop and we cant find the seals anywhere either

[@speedisgood]

Where's the rebuild?? You only took it apart.

[@elsevillaltk]

Muy malo, no se explica nada bien.

[@TourmotoDesign]

XaXo_Nui sorry you feel that way. What did I explain wrong?
