Bought a KTM SuperDuke 990, but it had some issues…
2008 KTM SuperDuke 990 motorcycle restoration. I diagnosed the problem stemming from a failed water pump which is a well known issue for these LC8 engines, but this one was noticed way too late and cause all kinds of other issues. I took the engine out and completely apart so I can fix anything needed. I got the engine sorted and assembled the bike.
Hope you enjoyed the video!
