Excellent video, thanks! I'm only hours away from heading out to pick up a 2021 TE150i. I have been struggling with 'do i get the 250 or 150' and honestly I am torn... but I think I'm going to be happy with the 150.
Great video. I wish I had the patience to make shop videos. I have finally started dirt riding following tax season. No videos yet as I'm riding solo due to Mike not being able to ride. I hope to post a flying video this weekend if I can get the final bit of editing done.
Nice, I have the orange version at 80 hours. I see you went with the #2 57.95. did you take it apart and measure it first, or did you just assume it would need the 57.95? Wondering if I should break it down and measure before I order the parts.
I did not measure it first, but measuring first is the way it really should be done. I typically go to a size 2 or B size on the first top end rebuild. Not necessarily recommending that shortcut but I've never had a problem.
Thanks for posting. Just took mine apart today at 90hrs and it looks decent. After cleaning the cylinder up the exhaust valve will not close. Have you had to take that apart yet?
@@DirtBikingwithDonnie Took it all apart and cleaned and lubed it good. Moved freely about five times, now it's back to where it will not close again. From the forum posts I'm seeing the stock control gates are know to bind. Sounds like that's what I got. Bummer.
Do you have an after market exhaust on it? Im assuming I'm going to need one with a spark arrester for trails and quiet would be nice.. Any tps on a good pipe that covers that?
I see you put a piston with a 2 on it in, is that what the original one had as well? Secondly, what brand of hydraulic stand do u use and do you like it? Good video, only critique I would have is you should really use a torque wrench on the cylinder and motor mount bolts.
The original was a size 1. I always go to size 2 unless I'm having the cylinder replated. I actually bought the adapter to be able to use a torque wrench on those cylinder head bolts but forgot I had it. I've done it by feel for years and we've put another 80 hours on it since this build.
@@CraigDAL12 Sorry, I overlooked that part of your comment. It’s a Tusk brand from Rockymountainatvmc.com. I love it. It’s so nice to put the bike at whatever height is most comfortable for working.
hello I have a husqvarna te 150 2018 I checked the cylinder pressure and it gave me 65 psi I changed rings and it was the same 65 psi (cylinder in the second measurement changed at 100hrs current 174hrs) what could have happened? the motorcycle now starts with the button before it was difficult to start
