I have these same guards, they are excellent, way way better than those cheap plastic ones you see on the trails all the time. They look great, too. Very durable I've smashed several sharp rocks no problems. The owner is awesome to work with too! Very responsive.Well worth the money.

A real beginner question, on the drive side I noticed you had already removed the upper chain guard which would interfere with the guard install. Do you have a video on how to remove that chain guard? Does it require breaking the chain? Thank you.

@TokyoOffroad Ай бұрын

Yes, when I set up my bikes from new I always remove the upper chain guard. If I was riding it on road, riding wearing sneakers I might leave it on, but for offroad with boots it really doesn't serve a purpose. To remove the upper guard you'll need to either slit the chain, or if you don't want to do that cut the guard.

Hi Mark, do you still have your 2017 model? Finally I sold mine with 310h+ after test ride the TBI 🙂.

@TokyoOffroad Ай бұрын

Yes, I still have my original 2017 (which has 560H). I did sell another 2017 which I had though. The 2024 runs great with the TSP performance kit, although I still enjoy riding the 2017 which has a more raw 2-stroke engine feel.

It looks like good stuff. However, I think the most useless part is the swing guard. I always take it off whenever I get a new bike.

I'm sure these work well, however in my opinion the 150$ price tag doesn't really make them worth the investment. Second hand swingarms go for less than 250 and damage serious enough to warrant replacement is a rare event anyway.

@TokyoOffroad Ай бұрын

Second hand swingarms aren't available for my 2024 KTM 300 EXC model (PDS rear shock, swingarm is different from previous years), so if it cracked from a rock hit my only option would be to purchase a new swingarm (over US$700). As I mentioned in the video, I saw someone on a FB group a few weeks ago had cracked their swingarm on a rock, so it can happen :-(

@crosslinkedcomponents4494 Ай бұрын

Marks got a good point with availability. I find swingarms are usually 500$ used for the more recent ones that look decent. 700 new.

@hoerenj0ng141 Ай бұрын

@@TokyoOffroad fair enough regarding the availability of the newer model parts. Regarding the cracked swingarm, you can tell that guy to maybe look into getting it welded, there's enough material on a swingarm to get a solid weld going and I wouldn't hesitate to ride it after that.
