00:00If you ride a two-stroke, you already know the sound, that little hiss at the head pipe joint,
00:04the puff of blue smoke where there shouldn't be one, and suddenly your bike's running weird and
00:08losing bottom end. Nine times out of ten it's not your carb, it's not your jetting, it's a five
00:14dollar rubber ring that's gone hard and cracked. So today I went digging and pulled together the
00:19top five exhaust pipe seal rings and spring kits, the ones people are actually buying by the
00:23thousands, and honestly, the prices on these are almost silly. Kicking things off with the KTM,
00:29Husqvarna and Gasca's motocross seal ring and spring coupling kit. What I like about this one is how
00:35wide the coverage is, XC, SX, EXC, XCW, TPI, TC, T, TX, EX, EC, MC, basically if it's an orange,
00:43white or red two-stroke from the last decade, this thing fits. It comes with the O-rings and
00:48the springs together, so you're not hunting for hardware halfway through the job. $3.30
00:55Nearly 5,000 sold, sitting at a 4.7 rating. That is genuinely cheaper than a coffee,
01:01and it'll fix a leak that's been driving you crazy for months.
01:05Number 2 is the full coupling kit built specifically for the KTM XC, SX, EXC, and XCW 250 and 300,
01:12plus Husqvarna TC, T and TX from 2017 all the way to 2025. This is the more complete package,
01:20it's $5.31, so it's the priciest on the list, but you're getting the newer model year fitment
01:25and a slightly beefier spring set. Almost 5,000 sold with a 4.7 rating.
01:32If you've got a current generation bike and you want the exact fit part rather than a universal-ish
01:37one, this is the safe pick. Buy 2, keep a spare in your toolbox, you'll thank yourself at the track.
01:43Third up, the seal ring and spring exhaust coupling for KTM EXC, SX, EXC, and XCW 250 and 300 TPI,
01:51covering 2017 through 2024. For 65, and the thing that stands out here is the rubber quality,
01:58the reviews keep mentioning it stays pliable instead of turning into a hard little donut
02:02after one hot season. That's really the whole game with these seals.
02:07Nearly 4,700 sold, 4.7 stars. If you ride hard and your pipe gets properly heat-cycled every weekend,
02:15this is the one I'd point you toward. Number 4 is my sleeper pick, the kit for KTM 250 and
02:21300 SX,
02:22XC, EXC, EXC, XCW TPI from 2017 to 2023, also covering Husqvarna and Gaskas.
02:30$3.27. That is the cheapest thing on this entire list, and it's sitting at a perfect 5-star rating
02:37with over 4,500 sold. That combination almost never happens. Springs are properly tensioned,
02:44the seal seat clean, no fighting to get the pipe back on. If you just want the leak gone and
02:50you
02:50don't want to overthink it, grab this one and move on with your life. And rounding out the list,
02:55the coupling kit covering KTM XC, SX, EXC, XCW and TPI, plus Husqvarna TC, T, TX and Gaskas EX,
03:03EC and MC. 335, 5-star rating, over 4,300 sold. This is the one to get if you've got
03:11more than one
03:12bike in the garage, or you and your riding buddies are all on different brands, one kit style covers
03:17pretty much everybody. Honestly, at this price I'd just order a few. These are consumables.
03:24You're going to need them again, and there's nothing worse than pulling the pipe on a Friday
03:28night and realizing you've got nothing to put back on. All 5 links are down in the description,
03:34so go grab whichever one matches your bike. If this saved you a headache or a hundred bucks
03:39at the dealership, hit that like button and subscribe, I've got more cheap parts that
03:43punch way above their price coming up. Catch you in the next one.
