Whenever you first start on the bike either from low rpms or on the holeshot it tends to sputter/hesitate but is completely fine when you get going. It also revs out completely fine in neutral, I only have the issue when the bike is moving. I checked the tps, replaced injector, replaced fuel pump, replaced spark plug, checked compression, checked top end, replaced map switch, checked fuel pressure, checked grounds, replaced throttle body, and replaced fuel filters but can’t seem to get it. Any ideas

Ran it low on fuel. Filled it with fresh fuel. Now it’s doing this. When you start it it runs, but when you hit the gas, it dies. Was flashing “Fi” code earlier too.

Made a post on here a few days ago about my goopy oil. After the oil change it rode fine for 350 miles and now same thing, goopy oil, overheating, and low oil pressure on start up. I honestly just give up on this engine. Does anyone have a known good 790 engine laying around in the US preferably? Would It be worth it to tear this one down, refurbish the head (if useable), and assemble? Or maybe 890 swap? Anyone have a wrecked 890 so I could buy the harness and ecu as well? Or maybe does anyone have a refurbished head I can buy? Thanks

Got a 2003 525exc ive had fir a little bit, 100% time for an oil change. I got no problem changing it but i just wanted to know what the other rfs guys are doing with their filters, do yall just throw em in right out the packaging or do yall presoak each filter in oil. Any response is much appreciated, thanks.

I'm looking for a more capable off-road machine, mainly lighter, than my Tuareg, without terribly compromising on-road capability. To do TET and some light single track and hone on my skills.

I also like to do my own maintenance and the Tuareg is quite dealer-heavy in terms of maintenance, the 19-24 690 is a far simpler machine

Anyone has come from a Tuareg to a 690 enduro? Or the other way around? Can you give me some pointers, straight comparisons between the two? TIA

what’s up guys i have a quick question hopefully i can get some help. so i was doing some hill climbing on my 2018 350 sxf and i was fully pinned 3rd but once i almost reached the top my bike started loosing power like bogging almost even while being fully pinned 3rd , kept popping clutch too and barley made it up seemed pretty weird , could it be a fuel issue or clutch issue possibly ? bike has 120 hrs thinking of doing the rebuild around 150.

Just picked up this beautiful machine. First two stroke bike and I’m wondering what is the best to use for gear oil after the break in period. The manual says 15w50 partial synthetic engine oil, but just wanna make sure that’s the best thing to use. What you think?

A few months ago I asked r/KTM if I should get the 990 Duke R or a 1290 the dealer still had in stock. I put that on pause for reasons. Well this week the dealer was down to the last one they will ever have and I decided to pull the trigger. Pretty stoked on getting a new 1290 with 4 years warranty for $20k Aussie dollars.

Staring the guardian bell my cousin gave me because he thinks I’ll need it with this bike 😅

Getting ready for the biggest DRIFT video production in the last 2 years. Next DRIFT MANIA instalation is coming 😎 This was the last one 👉 DRIFT MANIA - SAWMILL

Recently bought new SMC R and I would like to buy some shorty levers. I already tried V-trec vario 3, but I don't like them, they just feel weird.

Any good advices?

I've seen Nicecnc levers, which looks they could be ok, but idk.

Just another quick soundcheck.

Owners please tell me your thoughts, would you buy the bike again ? Do you like it ? If not why not.

I’m thinking of trading my SDR 1290 gen3 for one. After three years and becoming a father I’ve lost the enjoyment which took me into license losing speeds every outing. Wrist control I get it but that bike isn’t fun unless pushed. Off road opens up loads of new roads and is much more fun (for me).

So having ridden enduro only for the last 6 months on a fe501 in thinking this is the bike for some light touring and to increase my range and be capable of road riding too.

Need an opinion if this bike is worth 8000€

It's a KTM 450 EXC-F 2024 with 40 KILOMETERS (under 1 hours) on the clock. It's on a supermoto set, the seller crashed it broke his leg and stopped riding it.

Here are some pictures that show the damage to the bike

In my country, they only sell the 390 Adventure version, but I've always wanted an SMC.
Is this conversion practical? What parts would be required?"
