Ya, my impression was the same. I’m convinced they aren’t set right from the factory. Bike seems much more stable at idle too. Also since I did the valve adjustments it has had that hesitant start it used to have. Putter putter, off. And then I’d start again. Purrs like a one cylinder...

Lol, it’s actually not a bad job tbh. Just don’t let the chain derail off the bottom crank sprocket (like I did) and you’ll be fine lol. Getting the chain back on with my super homemade tool, wasn’t too bad once I thought of it….after fiddling with the chain for a while.

Haha, I guess that’s final :). I’m sure you’ll be happy with them. Maybe try the Mutants next for a good comparison.

Well, imo, people say mutants make noise on the turns (this is very nit-picky…imo not annoying at all). I would say that going in a straight line the mutants are silent (I have an shoei RF-1400) and I could always hear the slightest of a hum from Road 6’s on a 401. Not trying to discourage...

I would strongly suggest Dunlop Mutants. I had them on a 1300GS and they lasted 10,000km and they’re still in there…maaaaybe another 500-1000km but I dunno. I had the Road 6 on the 401 and they too are a good tire but there’s just something about the Mutants I like. I’m in need for a new...

Overthinking it…just get Yuasa Battery Maintenance Free AGM YT12A-BS

This is stupid lol. Took some pics of the bike in the forest cause it looked cool and noticed the turn signals…made a gif lol Booo, it errored, how do I upload a gif????

Ah, thx for the explanation. These ones Global OEM Led Lights 2018-2019 Part List turn signal front right/rear #60314026000 turn signal front left/rear #60314025000 From the look of them from google. I believe someone tried them on their newer (2020+) Svart and it didn’t work. We have all...

That’s what I’m saying the “US/Canada” lights are in more markets than you think. Check the fiche. I didn’t tally it, but I’d say the LED lights are in less markets.

I have no idea what you’re talking about. The parts listed in #30 are the parts I listed in the thread for svartpilen lights from Asian markets. And actually quite a few markets use the North American style lights and only a few regions have the led lights in post #30. Call them what you...

Global lights?

You replace the stock relay with the part listed earlier in the thread. Why you think you need two?

Michelin Road 6 are quite amazing actually. Grip, ride smoothness, tip in, low speed riding I can do a tighter circle (no doubt because of the wheel profile). The str’s look great, no question. And they were pretty good on the road as well. I didn’t get them because they wore out so fast. I...

Ya pics are always good. Pls post before/after :)

If it’s any consolation I find the ergo seat much more comfortable than my stock seat. I have a 2021 Svart. Also this is coming from experience on multiple 5000 km trips on the Svart…not sure how comfy the gen1 seat is though…being a 2021, I think mine is a gen2?
