How to Change a Piston | KTM 450/530 EXC | BLDH

The bikes 2nd Piston Change. My Supermoto Ktm 530 EXC. A how to on how i did the swap. I was supposed to change the Cam Chain too but I had borrowed the wrong special tool. So 1 week later i did the swap. My bike had blow-by symptoms with the old piston, and im hoping to seal the piston rings good and tight with a hard break in. The 530 has the XC4 motor, which is basically the same for newer (2012 and forward) exc-bikes such as the 500 exc. For the RFS (2003-2007) motor i recomend another video which i'll link down bellow.

I bought my piston parts from KTM-shop (LellesMC)

Realistic time for you first time doing this: 8 h
you shouldn't talk while doing mechanic stuff.. takes way longer time. but it gets more structured that way.
At Friday i started collecting tools at 9 pm. and then i called it a day at midnight by then i had gotten down to the cylinder. Then the next day (sat) i started working at 6 pm and left at 10 pm with the bike almost done. So considering im vloging + late night mechanic + my first time doing this + many mistakes = 8 hours, but next time I feel like i could do it in 3h.
