About 10 years ago the mechanic for factory ktm in Canada only ran front axle with no grease. Never really questioned it since figured he knew more than me

@Maxsmotoshop 4 ай бұрын

First of all KTM so stop right there second of all a couple times a year I have to beat axels out of bikes because people don’t grease them and charge the customer quite a bit extra for doing so definitely put a small amount of grease on all actuals and shafts. The situation might be a little bit different if you were a racer changing your tires a few times a week.

The Honda 250 RX would be a great bike to start with it is awesome in the trails and tight spots tons of usable power for hillclimbing the KTM and Husky are marketing gimmicks they need constant work and tons of maintenance by an experienced mechanic they are a bike for people who like to wave goodbye to their money

@maxflight777 Жыл бұрын

Does the rear axle need grease ? I say this because all the movement occurs in the bearings. The axle just holds the bearings in place and you don’t want to encourage the axle to turn on the bearings.

@Maxsmotoshop Жыл бұрын

Yes, the front and rear axle need to be greased. What do usually a greased the first time you change the tire which should be in the first year anyways, this video covers the more unusual places that have to be greased.

Came here because I have the big brother 450 bike. I watched kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oNdlh7h1vdnKops.html (highland cycles) first and then watched yours. I like how you showed how to take the swing arm and the rest of the linkages. Your technique to not have all the needle bearings fall off is excellent. The guy at highland cycle had you take the needle bearings out and then clean them and the area where the bearings roll. I suppose that would be a step to go beyond this.

@Maxsmotoshop 7 ай бұрын

Yes, I prefer not to pull the needles out. They are already clean as this is a brand new bike, just lacking grease to ensure a long life

greasing the axles doesnt do shit, They dont move. The bearings move and need the grease

@Maxsmotoshop 3 ай бұрын

Clearly, you’ve never worked on a bike, the shaft will see in place after a few months and will need to be beaten out with a large hammer if you do not grease them
