Finally, someone on youtube with the balls to run 100 psi in the pipe with no worries of catastrophic failure.
Good video.
Agree,Wire or no wire it’s always important when you’re showing people something to do it the safe proper way.
That way you prevent someone at home that’s doing it for the first time from seriously injuring themselves or damaging there own bike off your own content.
Thanks
Keep them coming.
Thanks n
Those shop towels being backwards is tripping my OCD! 😂
I used a shark bite pipe cap on the silencer side. I just did this for the first time last night. Way easier than I thought.
Applying heat to a sharkbite-type fitting of any sort can soften the plastic in the fitting and cause it to fail. Ask me how I know.
Those kits are worth every penny. Used mine multiple times on two different bikes.
Wasn’t that Beta brand new like two weeks ago? Must be hitting some gnarly stuff.
Yep
@@highlandcycleshell yeah dude!!! Get after it!
Thanks for showing the process again. I'm sure I'll have to do mine soon. Though, I do seem to be crashing less...hmmm. I think maybe I should be worried!
I’ve been doing the same thing using rubber expansion plugs and put a air chuck fitting on one end and use my leak down tester so I can regulate air pressure and then just use the torch, it works good for automotive headers also
Good video Morgan I actually have to blow out the pipe on my 250.
My did exactly what yours did.
Bent back to the frame.
most terrifying thing to do ever haha
Nice job and you love doing them pipes 👍
Yes I do!
Your method works. I have used it in the past. However, I much prefer using the hydraforce method. To each his own. I fix many pipes each year. I have to MIG weld cracks in many of them, as well as welding on their brackets. Just part of living with a 2-stroke if you ride in rocky terrain. 😉
So satisfying to watch those dents come out. But I also like mowing the lawn and pressure washing the driveway. Must be the gratifying results from the effort or something?
Try the p tech full guards!
get the bike running and hot then torch it when its on the bike, bit of back pressure, should push it out :DD:
One of many things I don't care for on the Beta is the old style pipe bolt system - the bolt that was missing you showed is like the old KTM style. KTM has a much better pipe connection system on their 2020 and newer bikes... I also agree with you, those pipe guards are so ugly! Great video Morgan.
I use rubber freeze plugs, fill the pipe with water then freeze it checking on it. Could use freeze plugs for this method also
So satisfying to watch ..... 🤣
I use this same type of dent remover I was thinking of getting a water pressure kit as well.
It works for big dents and straightening the neck if you bent it but I basically don't use mine anymore.
Same bolt falls out on my 300rx too. Thread locker keeps her in
Keep in mind, the internal air pressure will increase as you heat the pipe. So don't go crazy on the initial room-temp fill as you might pop the clamps when the pipe gets hot. Morgan's recommended 100psi would be the max I'd go if you had a bunch of dents pop at once. That or let the pipe cool between dents.
It definitely does. But I have checked before and the most I have ever seen it raise is 10-15psi
Love it
I was blowing dents out every couple months. Then I mounted a huge ginormous shovel type guard, think it looks good and much easier to true up than the pipe. I don't think its strong enough to tweak the frame IMO.
How would you polish them back up to help with looks?
I’m not sure. I know guys do it but I never do.
I've fixed several pipes myself and I found if you use some cutting compound and a car buffer you can buff out the heat marks and you cant even tell it's been repaired.
Wire wheel on a grinder works well too
Royal jelly removes the discoloration in raw steel created by intense heat . Just be careful if you want to keep that bluing around the welds.
They still make that same brand I just ordered one 2 weeks ago
Awesome
Buying same bike coming from KTM. Great content on vids, thanks. Are there any exhaust flange guards for the beta available. If so, do they help if you want to run a pipe guard?
I’m not sure if there are any for the beta but they do help
hi great tutorial ,one question you started with 100 p.s.i as you heat the pipe to remove the dents will the air pressure increase? and iif it does should we adjust the air back down to 100 or is it within its tolerance ? sorry for the silly question
Not silly. Yes it will increase. But not as much as you might think. And no need to adjust. The way I do it, it never climbs too much.
With the nickel coating on the PC P2 does excessive heat wear the coating, or does the oxidation buff off? I'd like to do mine but there are a lot of little small dents and may take a good amount of heating.
It changes the color but I don’t care about that really.
Not on topic really but who did u use for the number plate graphics?
thedesignlabco.com
What air chuck are you using?
It is from Matco
@@highlandcycles Been looking for a reasonably priced one for the house.
@@Danman1972 not sure what this one cost but it wasn’t terrible
That silencer bolt...it's a Beta thing !
Must be
U put a p tech guard on an then that shit is over but to each there own.
That's here's say bowl shit I broke a Boulder in half and not one time has been damaged and I have endowed over the bars and bike and pipe stayed in perfect condition
I have had different luck.
