Don't know if it helps, but I've read in a KTM forum that even a slightly "faulty" battery (that still starts the engine and seems to retain its capacity) can cause all kind of electrical/electronic problems such as ABS errors, etc.

Damn, that's quite a lot of trouble with the bike! How many kilometers has it run?

Mine is also slightly offset (second pic). The dealer also wanted to replace it under warranty; but the new gas tank he received from KTM/Husqvarna was even worse...

But why a decat at all? Why not just stick with a less than stock restrictive slip-on?

Decat and Ixil without db-killer... holy sh...

Unfortunately it's a common issue.

I've removed the rear pegs not because of the exhaust, but as I don't ride the 801 with a pillion and of course as it looks much "cleaner". I've not tested it, but from what I've read, about all exhausts also fit with the rear pegs in place. As I don't use the bike for commuting through town but...

Hi Imandelin, I've not tested the long 801 Remus. I do like the quite special design of the hydromformed NXT-Remus, but the 801 version is too long for my liking. The Duke 890 version is shorter; and fits the 801 in my opinion very nicely. The stock brushed stainless steel Svartpilen exhaust ist...

Sometimes yes indeed... 😁;)

According to the pics, I would assume the Givi will not fit the 801.

Thanks!

Agree! I'm still also very impressed of the 3M wrap; to me it was kind of an experiment; before I started, I feared it might become an absolute disaster with the quite challanging form of the covers; but instead it worked absolutely fine; and I can indeed highly recomend the 3M wrap.

Nearly 10% of a complete bike just for a single headlight is indeed quite expensive! Alternatively you could also print it... ;) https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/various/7-vitpilen-inspired-headlight-skymage55

You can order it from Husqvarna (part number A67614001000); it's about EUR 800,-. https://www.husqvarna-motorcycles.com/en-int/service/spareparts-finder.html

The first one I started at the top and then worked downwards. The second one I started from the side upwards and downwards; it worked even better. Yes, I think the stickers will be visible under the wrap. Here some pics from the wrapping of the first cover.

@blue_monkey I ordered 1m of the "3M™ Wrap Film 2080 Car Film M230 Matte Gray Aluminum"; it's 1,5m wide; and was enough for both covers; even with some reserve. I've no experience with other car wraps, but the 3M worked extremely good with the quite challenging form of the covers. When I did...

I'm definitely not a professional with wrapping; but with some basic knowledge and some patience it wasn't too difficult.

Welcome, congrats and have fun with it!! Since every possible option can still be added, you haven't missed anything.

The noise is absolutely fine to me; also at highway / max. speed, no problem at all. The ventilation of the RX-7V is because of the vents on the top of course better, but to be honest; while riding I've not noticed a big difference.

Congrats to your new bike!! (y) Because of the wrapping and the stickers; neither nor; I've ordered a pair of unpainted tank covers from Husqvarna to wrap them (part number A67608953000); they are surprisingly affordable / about EUR 90,- for the pair. Here an additional pic of the delivered...
