Hey guys. Looking to diagnose a strange issue I had on my bike. Wouldn’t start, kept on cranking over but wouldn’t fire. Took apart the electrical thing (lol, don’t remember what it’s called — on the left side where the spark plug lead attaches too), put it back together, wouldn’t start, then...

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 :)
