Guys bike breaks, he’s dead last, gets help from a racer to get it started, takes an hour to do so. Erzberg officials - Let’s DQ him. Seams personal to me.

This is one rider helping another. Definitely nothing wrong with that ! Being disqualified was a political statement and shame-full
Then every top rider will have bunch of crew riders helpers
I think it’s amazing he went from 0-10th place out of 500! That’s got to be a world record comeback. Screw the officials!
There's only 15 guys usuallt that finish the race..... there's never been 500 guys cross the finish line. Hundreds start the race, but if you finish at all then you're at worst ariund 15th.
@@yamahakid450f who mentioned anything about 500 people finishing the race? 500 people start the main race on Sunday. And this year only 8 people finished the race, even if you don’t finish the race your position still counts at the end.

@@johncast9565 you can’t teach stupid 🤷🏽♂️
The spark plug on a TPI 300 can be changed without completely removing the fuel tank but it needs to be loosened from the shrouds and center securing bolt enough to lift it up a bit for clearance. It helps to put dielectric grease on the spark plug rubber insulator cap to speed removal and installation. In thousands of operating hours I have never seen a spark plug insulator crack because of running through water. TPI spark plugs can last 200 hours. Those that fail early are usually in conjunction with degraded MAP sensors, degraded coolant temp sensors, or because of too much injected oil during cold start cycles because of improper warm up.
The factory plastic dry break fuel fitting is problematic. It can shear on impact, and the fuel can fail to flow through even if it clicks together upon reassembly. The tiny O ring is a unique size and can leak when nicked. Fuel flow through the fitting is almost impossible to check trailside. The best way is to disconnect a fuel line past the dry break fitting and hit the starter. This is impossible with the factory fuel clamps. I replace mine with field serviceable fuel injection clamps for this reason. In the shop a fuel pressure gauge can quickly determine if the fuel pump is working and providing 50 PSI. One can also remove the fuel cap and look into the tank and see if any fuel is being returned into the tank from the pump. I carry a 2’ length of fuel hose fitted with the injector side half of the dry break fitting. With this I can quickly test the fuel system trailside. Takes 60 seconds. In any no run scenario take the dry break fitting apart and reassemble it. Sometimes that is all it takes to restore fuel flow. Just leaning on the starter button and running down the battery is a bad idea. Once the voltage drops below 10.5 volts the ECU won’t work and the fuel pump won’t pump, regardless of whether you have a kick starter installed or not. Always save enough battery to run these two critical components, or you won’t be able to tow start it either. I carry a spare battery or jumpers in my van for such contingencies. An emergency starting capacitor will only provide enough energy for a brief starting attempt.
Also remember that poor electrical grounds can mimic the same failures. KTM models in particular frequently fail at the bonding point of the battery ground cable and the rear aluminum subframe. The dissimilar metals ( steel and aluminum) react when electricity passes through them, gradually breaking down the conductivity of the connection. I have seen bikes fail because of this in as little as 2 years. Take all your battery and starter connections apart every year, clean them, and reassemble with dielectric grease, especially in damp or humid operating conditions. In extreme cases an extra ground cable was run directly from the battery to the engine. Always carry an extra new spark plug and a thin spark plug wrench. Good luck. I have learned all this the hard way.
There’s always room to take the plug out these look like monkeys trying to open a coconut
I had a tpi 300 die on a trail and had to push it 2 miles of single track with my friends. Wish you were there!
Mr. Jarvis restarted. Another way of putting it would be he went back to start but an hour late and that does not give him any advantage. In terms of his other two disqualifications, just look at how poorly trained the check crews are while using outdated technology. I have great respect for Mr. Jarvis’ calm and class through all of this. The race promoters are suspect of bias.
Graham got screwed…dude is freaking amazing.
i'll always remember the track marshalls sending jarvis the wrong way a few years back. he still won even though.
I wonder why Graham hasn’t posted his POV. It would be the best most crazy footage ever!
He did on instagram, where he overtook 100 racers in one climb.
On his Facebook! Just watched it.
I guess It's a good thing I grew up in the era where you learned never to leave home on a 2 stroke without a spare spark plug and a way to change it
I didn't grow up in that Era and I still do that.
It wasn’t a spark plug but a plastic connector it wouldn’t send fuel anymore.
Disqualified a fourth time at Erzberg, have the organisers something against Graham, makes you wonder.
Yep.
maybe because he's not a ktm redbull rider
No shit. At Romaniacs Mani had his clutch go out and had help to fix it just a 2hr penalty. Bullshit.
Such a bummer, could’ve just ignored the help he got to fix the bike and appreciated his efforts! Last place to 10/11th cmon man!!… safe to say the field didn’t stand a chance if jarvis didn’t have the issues 🤷🏽♂️
There's only like 12-15 guys who even finish the race each year...
@@yamahakid450f there was 8 finishers this year… your point is?..
If you were in the running for the championship you'd contest it too.
@@yamahakid450f That still means he beat 490 riders.
@@shaunbean5553 I think he meant that Jarvis is obviously a brilliant rider and leagues ahead of the other 490 guys he beat, but those last 9 are also incredible so there was pretty much no way he was going to win..
That guy is a legend, should have never been DQd, especially having that big of a set back
As if the hour of down time trying to get it running wasn't a big enough handicap. Ridiculous that he was dq'ed. I see a lot of this stuff in racing lately and I just don't understand why. Garvis is top tier rider for sure but most of us just do what we can to get out and race and spending a bunch of time and money to get dq or dnf sucks.
its either people so disconnected from actual racing making the decisions, or them giving advantages to other racers. i think
Totally unfair for them to DQ Jarvis. To go from 500 to 10th with an injured bike is something that people will be talking about for years, it brings attention to the sport. To DQ such a feat is a mistake.
I know there is a diagnostic criteria cascade, I am surprised (at least as it appeared) at how much time the mechanic spent trying to force the bike to run. Fuel, air, spark, compression and timing. I feel like this diagnostic session shouldn't have taken an hour. However, easier said from my computer chair rather than with a full blown adrenaline dump at the start of the race.
First verify spark which he did by zapping himself (apparently these bikes wont spark if there is no pressure wave from the CCPS so you need 2 spark plugs to confirm spark via grounding). Once spark is confirmed, address fueling as it is unlikely that timing, compression, or air are the problem. If unable to address or investigate fueling I would have swapped an ECU next. Could have had Graham swapping ECUs while he worked with the sparkplug.
Really surprised they did not have a spark wrench in their gear bag.
Really interested to see that they appear to use a lot more aftermarket stuff than I thought. For instance I was under the impression the factory guys ran the stock map and head. Further sold on the TSP kit after seeing this video.
To be fair the mechanic was not a mechanic he was just a racer on jarvis team that saw he needed help so he stopped to help him.
Also keep in mind jarvis is no longer on the factory husky team. He has his own team so he is choosing his own sponsors. However I’m sure the factory guys have modded heads and cdi but they just look stock
@@TrailBoundco oh I thought he was an actual mechanic. Great to know!
@@TrailBoundco you can make 1 or 2% gains from a modded head.... or 99% gains being a Graham Jarvis. FACT.
I had the same experience with my '20 300 XCW TPI after doing some routine winter work on bike wherein I had removed, drained fuel tank to check compression @ then 115 hrs. As spring time came, with fresh fuel added in tank, I rode bike ~ 1 mile w/o opening power valve, then bike simply died when opening to 3/4 throttle as if running out of fuel! Let it sit, started & died couple times, then nothing. After tow back to my shop, found the culprit to be that the KTM design alum insert/cone filter wasn't fully latched into the plastic quick disconnect!!!!!. No fuel leaks seen. Obviously fuel flow was restricted by plunger of QD. My lesson learned is to assure proper connection and full latch of fuel components.
BTW, I redesigned the 90 degree fuel tank fitting using 6061 alum to connect directly to a chrome plated brass QD, eliminating the 90 degree formed hose creating a more robust unit for hard enduros---applications 2S TPIs and FI 4Ss. If interested, email me, MAS-Designs@TWC.com Limited availability.
You don't need 2 spark plugs to verify spark with these bikes. Take plug out and leave cap on, put plug next to cylinder and hold starter button... it'll show spark if it's got spark just like any other dirt bike TPI or not.
I am SHOCKED they don't have a spark plug wrench... the factory KTM one is like a 4 in one tool too. Take the rear axle bolt out with it, front axle bolt, and spark plug. My god guys 😂
It wasn’t the spark plug it was a plastic connector and it wouldn’t send fuel. Fuck factory Redbull one of there guys gets mechanics help to fix a clutch and just a 2hr penalty.
Thanks for a very interesting video.Nice to know its not only me ripping bikes apart totally fed up!!Recently had a brand new plug go faulty and the connection to the HT cap part faulty at exactly the same time.LOL
I love the comments section here, shows we all love Jarvis!!!!
This will just make him more determined for the next one. You won’t keep this champion down.
Glad i found your site!! I am 61 retired and started riding again!! Looking forward to your channel!!
Daryoosh, A very good display of sportsmanship. Much improved from Canada. Good Job KRASH
Thank you for sharing!
I’ve had that fuel hose issue get me on my 21’ Beta 350 Race model. Once was after adjusting the valves. You talk about a sinking feeling! Clicked the line completely together and it fired right up.
Jarvis doesn’t need this race to show he’s still number one.
My friends have run the cone valves on their ktm350xcf, I went with the dal saggio sphere kit from Stillwell performance & absolutely LOVE it for harescrambles. They've since switched from the cones after riding mine.
Absolutely LOVE Jarvis, best guy we have for the sport, by far and there are some great guys. Even if he had a kick starter you would have kicked until your leg fell off. On those bikes kick starters are over rated. I have a 19 TPI with several hundred hours on it and I've never used the kick starter once!

@ Lucas Vance What’s up with that? At about 30 minutes in on the replay of Red Bull erzberg rodeo the first row did blow through the course fencing. Manny’s dad totally was spotting for him. Good catch!
Awesome video.. fuel line has got me before too on my 450
Such a shame. Jarvis is the goat and by far my favorite to watch. I guess the idea behind the D.Q. Would be that any racer could have a decent mechanic enter the race as a competitor and keep an eye out for “their guy” on the trail, help him iron out any mechanical issues if they see him down, and it’s not cheating because it’s another racer. Comes down to shit luck I suppose. Hope Jarvis has another year in him!!!
Though the 'mechanic' would have to be a kick ass rider himself to be able to participate. In Erzberg it's 1500 drivers narrowed down to 500 starting for the main event.
Even of they all did that, what is the issue? You aren't going to be on the podium if you have a mechanical issue and have to wait for your mechanic to catch up and fix it. If your mechanic is close enough to do that he'd finish on the podium himself
Come on Chris! If you ride a two stroke it's written in law that you have to carry a spark plug wrench.
Haha that’s not me fixing the bike! But most of the time I have one. Been considering running some adjustable pliers from knipex that are pretty light and could be used for other stuff. I’ve needed to loosen a huge fuel filter but before with no luck
@@TrailBoundco I know it's not you. When he was trying to remove the plug with the leatherman, you commented that you've been there before, so I assumed you meant removing the plug with pliers.
Yeah, pliers would be good. I've had manzanita stab through my radiator hose and luckily my friend had some.
@@seanwahl1000 haha oh yeah its happened for sure! thought I had the axel wrench with the plug on it but didnt put it back in the bag while camping / working on the bike ha
I bought a wrench and cut it up to have a solid, compact sparkplug wrench in my kit.
I don't understand how they can DQ him, the video shows he only received help from another racer.
Did anyone notice that in the live feed they showed Mani's dad pointing out lines in Carl's Dinner as well? I went back and it's clear as day in two different locations. One of them course marshals even came up to him.
wow really? I didnt see the clip oof course Marshalls but I did see his dad walking the section with him and giving him water. was this in his GoPro recap? the angle was terrible so I didn't watch the whole thinig
They are not going to DQ Mani, he is sponsored by redbull, unfortunately that's what money does not skill.
Yeah, Mani even uploaded his own footage with the compromising section. I remember catching that immediately because I had just heard, a few minutes earlier, that outside help and SPOTTING were not allowed. And I also remember how animated his dad was while spotting him in the last Erzbergrodeo.
@@motobandits5338 Mani is a very skilled rider. But he's a poster child for being born with the silver spoon and coached for these races from a young age. Sponsored by KTM, Redbull, born in Germany, riding in Austria, father is a local legend, etc. He has every tailwind imaginable.
@@TrailBoundco Mani's dad was well outside the ribbons they had in Carl's dinner.... There was no issue with what they did. Ie it wasn't against any rules.
Great video. Bravo
That was cracked plug from water. Thermal shock. Exact same happened to my buddy on brand new bike. When I used to do a bit of racing the best top tip I ever had for running issues was to always start with the plug. 👍 Listening to the commentary here though... a poorly connected fuel line could also be the cause here but we'll never know 😄👊👊
Rotten luck Mr Jarvis sir. At least you got to ride which is more than can be said for the rest of us 😄👍👍
It was 100% fuel line believed to be tampered with on start in quarry waiting for almost 2 hours for start
@@gracekeitch7706 bloody hell. Where did you get the info from?
The fuel line wasn’t connected properly.
@@shaunbean5553 ive since read an interview with Jarvis. He confirmed that it was indeed the fuel line not clipped in tight. 👍
"One of the rules at the Iron Giant is that outside assistance from mechanics or any other team members and even spectators is not allowed."
Why are so many in the comment section struggling with this. It couldn't be more clear.
This is my question for anybody who knows and especially @ redbullerzbergrodeo, why was the first row of riders who rode through the flagging tape not penalized or DQ’ed?
Why was Manual Lettenbichler not penalized for having his Dad spot him at Carls diner?
Yeah what's up with that?
As far als i saw it on TV manis das Just handed him water no spotting this year
@@danielh5127 And you really think that he didn't say to his son, ''left or right line''? Yeah right, great riding tho.
@@danielh5127
Watch the vision again my friend.
Mannys dad was clearly pointing out lines and directing him through, no question.
Enjoyed watching this - I've been bitten by the fuel line attachment misalignment before - too bad he was disqualified.
Always swap the plug first. That's usually the first bog n die fail in a 2T.
Curious why others were not disqualified for getting assistance, for breaking rules. Interested in why the bike ran perfectly 30 minutes before the race and the issue was a poor connection for the fuel line which wouldn't just happen. The recluse factory cover is just that, a cover that Jarvis has a few of from being a factory rider, though they keep getting stolen. Officials can't seem to keep any security in the paddock when it come to Jarvis' bike.
It could happen actually. I change filter on my bike on a Friday, rode all day Saturday with no problem. Then on Monday the bike stalled and wouldn't restart. Turned out to be a loose fuel connection, exactly like in this video. Nobody touched the bike between the 2 rides.
Loving this kick start Suzuki
Semangat terus maju jervis ...very cool nice vidio...from indonesia
If you don't understand how jam packed every hill climb and single track is an hour into the front runners leaving the start...imagine the L.A. 5 on a Friday before a holiday and you're on a moped.
Yup...that screwed.
10/11 over all is an epic ask.
Just like check points...rules are rules.
Sketchy at best.
Jarvis was an absolute beast
when racing I always carry spark plugs and spark plug wrench, that's usually the first bog n die fail in a 2stroke
Mannn, I was rooting for Graham to take it again this year. Even though he was behind, he still managed to get very far.
He was 11 at the end crazy
What a bummer. It sounds like the gas line was not clicked all the way. That's really frustrating and I didn't know that was even possible. I've seen these new bikes have fuel pumps stop suddenly. Some of us carry an extra pump on the trails.
What a shame for Jarvis and
all of us that love to see him race..
Do you think it was fair for Jarvis to get DQed? What steps would you use to trouble shoot the broken bike?
From what I see in the video, why DQ someone if their teammate helps them get the bike running. That's all in the spirit of racing. Appreciate the share and commentary. P.S - Can't wait to get my new TSP head and re-flashed ECU this Friday!
I seen he was DQed but no reason why. Thats ridiculous so what if he just swapped bikes to a spare thats the exact twin?. I never read the rules, but a mechanic, you, or another racer fixing a bike in the middle of a race shouldn't be a issue i would think. Its already challenging enough just being held up. Why let the guy go ahead and race 3hrs is a long time just stop him at one of the checkpoints, that part is just cruel. At 47 he could easily had a injury and be out the next race in the series and all for 0 points. Plus, erzbergrodeo was absent for the last few years so being back out there fresh.
As far as checking the bike i would be spark and gas first for sure so fuel line filter make sure its connected good, spark wire is tight and the lead from the regulator is still dry and connected. Oil injection tank isn't cracked or loose lines sucking in air. Though i guess 23 should be a issue there with the injection tank but the kickstarter will be a issue for sure. One thing to have it as a option but delete it altogether is crazy to me. All mine have both except my 150SX .( just kick) & even it has a spot for a battery so i bet i could add e-start if i really wanted.
What a bummer. It was not fair. I think the intent of the rule is when you are out on the course. If your bike dies a short distance after the flag drops you should be able to get help. I'd do what they did in the video to get it running. Although, I would not have spent the time trying to push start it.
@@burnum5433 I agree, he's a racer not a mechanic just helping jarvis! heck yeah what head insert did you get
@@TrailBoundco - Went medium compression and hoping for the best. I ride mainly Southern Idaho and a broad range of elevation 2-8K. Might not need the punch of the high compression that you do...but I can always order another insert :-) Looking forward to the ECU fixing some pipe bang with stock. Great to see confirmation more riders are going with TSP.
Always Check Spark, Fuel and then Air pretty simple stuff.
Moreso TPI will flash the lights at you giving you a Morris code to tell you what is weird.
Good narration.
Looks like a wave of water beat the connector out of the place
The video doesn't show everything. In this hour of searching, at least one mechanic was helping, there are existing pictures of that. Rules are Rules, so the decision was right. The support for Mani of his Pa is another thing somewhere in the grey zone.
He should not have been disqualified. 🏆
Wow, bs, what a true legend to pull 10 th from very last,the energy and vibes are priceless 🤙🏻👍🏻🤟🏻🇺🇸
I've also heard they run heavier cranks in the factory tpi bikes
Never without kickstart
Bruh why dq him. That’s such an insult
after he worked so hard to get it running and racing as hard as he could too!
Incridible team mate 🔥😎
Check out his GoPro footage of passing 500 riders in one of the hardest hard enduros in the world.
Personally, I usually check fuel delivery first but I've never had to fix a bike with that much pressure hanging over me. Starting in last place being that far behind, why not let him go for it? I'd make for a better race IMO.
They let him go for it! Dqed at the end of the race!
@@TrailBoundco lol classic.
Yeah they let him race to see how good he would do and then they DQed him
I dont know but id probably do it pretty much the same way, seens like a standard approach. Each bike might have their own quirks and im sure they know their bikes well :D
Pra mim, o Jarvis é o melhor piloto de enduro do mund, ele tem 47 anos e anda bem de mais, o cara merece respeito
They DQed him because Red Bull hates him, he is a Rockstar guy. and he stays true.
Any ideas on what happened at the start with the leaders cutting the course? Seems the rules weren't applied to that incident.
that was weird! they ended up on their same track and then were like screw it were going through the ribbon
You ask what would I do to fix the problem? I do this without hesitation. 1st check the battery connection. 2nd check the quick disconnect fuel connections. After that I'd have to think about it. I've seen the same issue on KTM and Husky bikes non-racers buy. I think they are great bikes it's usually a mechanic induced error.
Ryan Reynolds doing voice over.... GO Blue shirt guy!!! thanks for posting!
The king of hard enduro.
I personally don’t think he should of been dq’d also did see in the live footage some racers getting assistance in carls dinner and that was on red bull tv. Surely that’s worse than some help in the pits from another rider.
Yeap like the winner of the race getting help by his dad
Anyone else remember when Dougie Lampkin flooded his bike right at the start a few years ago? He was able to sort it and get going again pretty fast though. Unlike unlucky Graham.
So was it really the fuel line not being fully clicked in or was it the spark plug?
It was the fuel line connection not being fully clicked in. You can hear that it's fuel starvation. It sort of starts but then bogs down with any throttle. Straight away I though fuel. The plug wouldn't give those sort of symptoms
check the electric in high tintion wire sow that you can diagnose
Was the actual problem the spark plug or fuel line that was not fully connected?
Also: geez holy torque spec on the spark plug...
fuel hose as fast as I know
Tsp Reflash , Head, ‘ I believe i see a Welded Plate on that Pipe “ FmF” ?
Can we just point out that Darush(sorry if that's not how you spell it) is an ultra chad stealing parts off his own bike to help him.
much respect for him !
If the rules are that you can't receive ANY outside help, to include other racers, then sure. I guess it depends on the specifics. The devil is always in the details. I can't imagine they would DQ him over a simple misunderstanding though. If they got it wrong, he has proper video evidence.
Rules state that other competitors may assist you. No help from anyone else though. His DQ was BS!
racers can help racers though
But yet one of there Factory RedBull riders gets help to fix his clutch and all he gets is a 2hr penalty.
I feel much better had the same problem and it took as almost the same time to figure it out. We took out the tank and when you touch the fuel line you know what the problem was.
The fuel lines on the tpi are a bear to get on sometimes.
What kinda t handle is that? The 3 sided one
It'll be 2023 before we know it and Graham will be all fired up for the win again :) It wouldn't have been a proper win without Jonny Walker in the race!
From that video it sure seems like f.i.m dropped the ball, it sucks
I’m just happy a factory rider has the same issues I have now and then.
well technically he's no long a factory rider! since he started his own thing
I am suprised to see Jarvis running a close to stock bike. Xplor suspension, stock triple clamps, stock ECU and more.
Impressive riding when he got his bike running…
I agree! he does have the TSP head and flash though as he is sponsored by them. that's what I'm riding on my bikes
our boy Jarvis has been disqualified nearly as many times as he's won.
At some point during their efforts to diagnose Graham's bike, his Team Manager Grant Churchward stepped in and that is why he was DQed. We don't see this on the GoPro footage.
I was assuming there was something official. I love watching Graham race and wish he would have had a run at the Iron Giant, but if the rules were broken we can't expect him to get an exception.
Jarvis using Rekluse? Now that's something interesting
First thing I learned about bikes: If it ain't spark or gas, it's something bad.
Crank case pressure sensor is probably on its way out and it fouled a plug. I would have gone straight to the plug in the first place, and I've also never removed my tank to change my plug (i have a fan too)
you have the XC/XCW tank? I've never been able to get the plug on that thank
@@TrailBoundco ya I've got the stock te250i tank. Looks just like the one on jarvis' bike here
Who cares about the system we all know his effort and comeback was the real point to focus on.
The officials can get fkd.
It does seem i bit harsh and I’m assuming that’s the FIM doing the DQ and not the promoter. I really could not tell but that other person working on his bike was his teammate. I believe Jarvis has a 4 rider team plus I think he helps out a few other riders as well. I’m shocked he didn’t have a spark plug wrench on a 2 stroke that seems like a must have.
So far almost everyone of the top 6 riders has had at least on bad ride where they scored 0 or low points so he didn’t loose too much but if he had finished within the top 3 he would be between 1st and 3rd in the points.
I don't think Jarvis ever carries any tools or spares. He crashed in Romaniacs a few years ago and broke the clutch mount and didn't even have tape or zip ties! Had to get someone at a control to tie it up with string and some tape. In Hixpania a few years ago he belted his pipe and had to replace it in the pits but his mechanic had to tell him which bolts to take out. Jarvis is an awesome rider but a Mr Fixit??? Definitely not. Mind you, I've seen a few TPI Husky's not start for unknown reasons, that's why I'll stick with carbs.
@@glennalderton1313 Pros ride for living. They don't wrench for a living. Most of them know less about bikes than an average enthusiast.
What is the cartridge jarvis is using??
In a video I watched, with Jarvis, he said he was running the Rekluse auto clutch.
send me the link? every interview I've seen they say he is running the recluse manual aluminum clutch bit.ly/2Myr6zZ
yeah i heard that as well from the horses mouth think it was vid with billy bolt when he had his clutch cover nicked from an event by some scumbag
LOL. He's not.
Wouldn't you look straight away for electrical malfunction/spark etc..
I hope he can contest thst ruling!
Husky .. Ready to Race .. sometimes.
He's running the TSP head and ECU. Australia represents!
Graham is the Goat great effort from Daryoosh pitching in to get him on track n racing i think this decision should be appealed with all riders threatening to boycott the series in solidarity its clear to see what went on and that everything that happened was purely in the interest of good sport manship and fair play :D
I wonder if someone clicked off his filter/ fuel line connection?
Not trying to say "i told you so" just saying i've been called a conspiracy nut since 2018 because I don't want extra unneeded TPI junk on my enduro bikes when a lectron, smartcarb, or just well tuned kehin does the job.
100% agree. I have been preaching the same. It's a joke. Too much BS to go wrong.
My tpi worked just fine along with many other people at the Erzberg this year. Carbureted bikes have had many issues over the years too. Coming to such a conclusion after a video like this is ridiculous. I know the tpi bikes had issues in the first model years but the newer bikes are great. Don’t jump to over the top conclusions just because you prefer carburetors.
@@stickvortex I’ve had both Lectron bikes and tpi. I have a 22’ tpi TE300i and love it. Been super reliable. Except for CCPS here and there. Swap the emissions bs out ( idle screw & air screw ) and you’re good
I live at 4500 feet and had to put a SC2 on my 22 125x. Because if i go ride the clost track it os at 700 ft.. I tricked my x completely out i just got my Apex sxxc head a Boyesen supper cooler. Andcit has a pro circuit works combo with 7 oz fly wheel waigh and a vforce4. And protection all around .. and i put new graphics and seat cover on it!! Check it out at decal wirks sight in there photo contest pictures and tell me what ya Think it is the blue one lol 😆 the pucture outside the trailer with the dig dish in the picture.?,!!
@@stickvortex yeah ok. Domt jump to conclusions on tpi bikes just because you had one that worked for you.
I would have done the same thing nice to have a running bike the same as yours, just start swapping parts, but wouldn’t have this problem with a carburetor bike

minute 6:40 you are not going to remove a spark plug with those pliars. Maybe with a vice grip if you have the angle and clearance. with all those wrenchs there should have been a 13/16 or 21mm
Pretty sure he did remove it with the pliers in the end lol
You underestimate the power of a leatherman.
1:24 I'd recommend not bump-starting with your palm on the exhaust...
Dang I never thought a Gumby rider as myself could share a piece of wisdom with a pro…I always carry my factory TPI tool kit. It’s got all the tools this guy needed including that HEAVILY NEEDED spark plug wrench😬
Good for you would have changed the spark plug but the bike still wouldn’t run because a plastic connector took a shit on him.
