The Shop
I have 105 hours on my ‘19 300, just did a top end and framed that one too. I got a new one coming in October, so I’ll probably sell it when I get the new one dialed in.
I only have about 30 hours on my ‘20 EXC500, it’s still like brand new, but I’m going to sell it here shortly, I just don’t ride it anymore. I put 300 hours on my ‘17 EXC500 and never touched the motor. These KTM’s are built to last, IMO.
My buddy has 530 hours on his ‘16 EXC500 and it still runs great with zero issues.
I was on my last bike (250xc) for 6 years as my sole steed until last year. Still have it but will probably sell it soon as it just sits. I’m still not 100% and don’t ride enough to justify 2 bikes this year.
I do every two. I only upgrade suspension. Don’t even do exhaust. Ride it for 50-60 hours. Don’t touch the motor, replace a clutch at 30 hours. I don’t have the time or skills to rebuild a motor so it’s cheaper and easier for me to sell it at that point.
needed to replace the rear rim, and rekluse radius cx clutch plates around 400h, put a piston, rings, and new exhaust valves in at 310h, rekluse exp disk about every 150h, other than that basically all I've done is fuel filters, wheel bearings, oil changes, and air filters.

Just wish I had kept my tarmack bikes, stupid money now here in the UK.
