Highest Mileage TE/SMR 449 or 511

Your knobbies must be made of titanium, dude!

I get 5 or so 50 - 100 km rides out of a Pirelli MX Extra rear.
If tyres arent wearing they aren't gripping.

Plated????

On my 511 the stock back tire did 300 miles. Thats it!


Lots of sliding and burnouts on the cold damp winter roads...

Yeah, they announced a 350 and 500 plated KTM/Husky for 2015.

Yawn!
Stoopid KTM

Mine lasted less than that, every third knob yore off at the case, on dirt!
No more michelins for me

I decided to rebuild my 511's top-half of the engine (valves, piston, timing chain) after 15 000 km (9 320 miles). Not going to touch lower-half (crankshaft bearings, piston rod) for now.

Mine done the same amount of miles and smokes on start up. Will be interested how much it costs you and what you find

6200km on my 2011 TE449. I would say about 80% has been on road.. probably more. I bought the bike off a guy who had it new and it was at 3000km, he had taken it offroad once. This was evident from the brand new appearance the bike had.. no scratches on frame guards or anything. It was mint. I put the power up plug in and have since added another 3000 of my own km. I would say about 500 of these kms have been some light trail riding and just been out bush exploring. Found a couple of mx tracks to take her on as well. I mostly use it as my daily to and from work, heading out to the tracks on weekends.

The bike never flames out, doesn't overheat, starts first go hot or cold and will loft the front wheel in 4th gear with ease. I must say I'm pretty confident I will be enjoying many more thousand km's with this wonderful machine.

Planning on getting a set of SM wheels / brakes for it

So any new mileage record holders? This has been done for two years now. Figured I put this up to see where people are now. Happy New Years!

thank you in advance

With 14,000 on your engine, I think it would be safe to assume that your bore will be worn outside of standard measurements.
The different sized pistons were to allow for very slight differences in original machining at the factory.
I believe you should be able to use the latest of the pistons in your list on account of the wear of usage.
Carry out measurements prior to assembly to be sure.
