    Isn’t first service simply an oil change and “inspections”?

    I really like my19er 401SP but just got today another SVART the 20er 701SP

    Yeah....he just mentioned master. I think he meant slave.

    I think you want the Rekluse slave cylinder. The master cylinder is the one with the clutch handle attached. Rekluse won’t ship internationally? I used the superlite 15 tooth sprocket from Rottweiler. I don’t think there’s much advantage of one over the others. And they’re all pretty inexpensive.

    I think I hate my bike :)

    Sounds like you should have bought a Svartpilen instead. ;)

    [Topic changed] False neutral fix discussion

    Tough call. I chose the Svartpilen for its more upright riding position. I removed the rear bodywork so I could use luggage racks designed for the Vitpilen and have a more symmetrical look. Most seem to agree the rear suspension is a bit harsh, so hard to say how either would do off-road. Mine...

    It looks like your front fender got cut off. Or maybe the non-US version uses something different? I took the rear bodywork off mine. It allows you to use Vitpilen aftermarket parts. I’m using a 15 tooth front with the stock rear and am happy with the results so far. I started another thread...

    Svartpilen 701 Tank Protection Film

    For clarification, are you looking to cover all the painted tank parts with clear? Or looking for a strip for zipper protection on the rear of the tank?

    Aftermarket parts questions

    I haven’t received my tank ring yet. It’s supposed to arrive this week. But I got the part numbers from DABOMB in his touring set up thread. It listed the ring part number as TRT.00.475.16000/B. I never tried mounting the Unit rack, so I can’t say whether the bolts they provided worked or not...

    Aftermarket parts questions

    I’ve been able to at least get an inaugural ride in. I used a CRG Arrow mirror. The horn is a Denali unit from Twisted Throttle. The initial ride exceeded my expectations. The engine is smoother than any single should be. I’m looking forward to getting it broken in. Unfortunately, we’re having...

    Does anyone make a front fender extender for the Svartpilen 701?

    Chech out Rottweiler for exhaust photos. Here’s the photo per your request.

    Does anyone make a front fender extender for the Svartpilen 701?

    I used three. I bought some black buttonheads with nuts at the hardware store, so they don’t really show. It came with regular silver ones. Less than $20 all in. The exhaust is from Arrow. Cat delete and muffler.

    Longer rear hugger

    I agree. Although it does come with two Powerbronze stickers, so there’s that. ;-)

    Longer rear hugger

    Good call on the KTM parts. I just mounted the Powerbronze unit today, and while it looks like it’ll work fine, I’m not sure it’s worth the extra money. You have to drill four 6mm holes in the OEM part, and they provide push pins to hold it in place. I couldn’t get them to work, so I bought...

    Does anyone make a front fender extender for the Svartpilen 701?

    Here’s a photo of the fender extender I ordered from amazon. It looks like it’s going to do a better job of keeping debris in check than most fenda extendas I’ve had in the past. And it fit perfectly. No trimming required.

    Does anyone make a front fender extender for the Svartpilen 701?

    Yep. Fitted the Puig last night. I’m actually pleased with the look as I ordered the black opaque screen and the gloss black matches the black finish on other parts of the bike.

    Does anyone make a front fender extender for the Svartpilen 701?

    I received the flap from amazon, and to my surprise, it appears it’s going to fit perfectly. It probably won’t be the most attractive piece of kit, but function over form, right? I’ll post a photo once it’s mounted.

    Dutch Vitpilen 701

    How long ago did you order that? I ordered one from Powerbronze late November, and I’m still waiting. Edit: Oops..... I see the one you have is different.
