It's time for Chris to strip the 950 motor and then they have a little surpise for him.

    I had a KTM 950 Adv for two years in the mid-00s. No engine problems, whatsoever. Superb bike. I ride a Duke 390 now. I'm looking forward to seeing the finished product. The 950/990 engine was the one.

    The balance shaft and it's gears is the most difficult thing about this engine, would have been cool to see how the real deal tackles it. The transmission is just like any other engine.

    I was hoping for a few insights to the 950/990 especially since you had the experts there. My 990 SDR has been off the road for 3 years now, while I chase down a Fi gremlin and continue to replace parts. If only I had the same access you have (I'm in the Middle East), I'm very jealous. Good luck with the rebuild, people loves these bikes because they are so raw and fun.

    How do you get the timing chain back on the camshaft sprocket??? There’s like no clearance for the chain to get around the camshaft sprocket on my LC8. It was a fight to get the thing off in the first place, and impossible to get it back on.

    When I saw Chris sitting next to that glorious blue frame in the End of Year Show, I hoped that a KTM update wouldn't be far behind and this didn't disappoint. Thanks for continuing to produce these videos and for providing such entertaining diversions. By the way, will you need a new ECU to match the 990 or can you just reflash the original?

    @@myjurisdictionallrightsres4901 Hey Kev, good news - it was a pretty simple conversion, the only mechanical part I had to change on the 990 engine was the ignition pickup which I simply swapped out for the 950 one. From memory everything else was a straight swap over. The only difference might be that I deleted the neutral switch and made my own loom so you might find a couple of sensors etc on the 990 that are either redundant or need the plugs changing on.

    Ok so You start project with bike that's worth £3500 than You put tons of work in it to make frame and the rest of the chassis right. and than You put a £4000+ engine in it (plus labour to take it apart etc.). At the end You will be spending well over £10k to have bike that is worth £5000 as no one will pay more for a old 950 that has been messed around with. It's all great but I think the way You presenting facts is off - You should have titled the video "how to loose a lot of time and money on something that will still be old and worth very little" :-)
