    Issues fixed under warranty

    Doesn't help with the warranty, but maybe this could be an (available) alternative option.

    The two holes to attach the aluminum mount might indeed be a weak link; if it would be me, I would add two slightly recessed big washers (made from steel) underneath the countersunk screws. Edit: the head of a standard M6 countersunk screw is 12mm; the inner diameter of a M10 washer is 10,5mm...

    Yes, but the 1290 plate broke because of a design-flaw / fabrication failure; with the quite thick printed base plate I would assume that it should work quite similar to the 3mm aluminum base plate,

    Not one single point here... Maybe sometimes it's helpful to know where you should behave; and where it's "OK" to be a hooligan... ;)

    130km/h?!? OK, you must definitely have some Viking genes... 😁 Not for an extended long period of time, but 200km/h is quite "normal" here; even with the 801 without any wind protection; welcome to Germany...😉

    I just noticed that your French license plates are only 130mm high; that might help a bit; our German license plates are 200mm. Here a sketch I did some time ago to cheque the angle of the plate.

    Yes, according to the Eurpean requirements the licence plate needs to be 30° or less, but as long as it's not too extreme and as long as the plate is still good visible, it's mostly "accepted" here in Germany; I never had any problems with a more step license plate. As the plate is made from...

    When I adapted the Duke 390 tail tidy, the 40° wasn't enough; the reflector underneath the license plate touched the tire; with 45° instead it worked fine; but the German license plates are differnt to the French license plates; I did the the angle correction simply by bending the license plate...

    Rear Peg's or not ?

    If you always ride solo, in my opinion definitely without the rear pegs; looks much better.

    Is the K&N air filter worth it?

    Same here; the K&N works fine; and no noticeable difference to the stock filter.

    Weird noises

    Yes, the description from the manual was also to me at first quite head scratching; but finally it's quite simple. Here a link to a video:

    801 Slip-on / exhaust list
