    Yes indeed; on the pic the reflections on the rim help a lot to make it look that big; I should add some silver rim stickers to make it permanently look like that! 😁

    Must agree; should keep it like it is 😁

    SDR 1290 tail tidy adapted to the 801

    I don't think it's just the air/wind resistance; but also the vibrations at high rpms; and especially the very sharp radius of the bent at the license plate mounting plate; that is fabricated from aluminum. Luckily it broke in a 30 km/h zone; and I noticed it; otherwise the license plate would...

    SDR 1290 tail tidy adapted to the 801

    A pic from todays daytrip... From what I've just read in a KTM forum, it seems to be a common problem with the SDR 1290 Evotech tail tidy and also with the Chinese "version"; especially here in Germany with our huge registration plates and the (legal) possibility to ride the bikes with more than...

    Some pics from todays daytrip; maybe the last of this year with the 801. Btw, who needs a registration plate?! I had to ride nearly 200km without... :oops: Nevertheless the trip was again great!! (y)😁

    Any tail tidy updates

    Hi Ralf! with the Top Block tail tidy the indicators are much wider than required. To fit the European regulations it needs to be 180mm between the "lighting parts" of the lenses. As the inner part of the lenses is frosted, you can measure between the transparent part of the lenses. From the...

    "Tweaked" 801 stock muffler

    Maybe of interest to someone, who also wants to give it a try; there's a used stock Svartpilen 801 exhaust for sale here in Germany. https://www.kleinanzeigen.de/s-anzeige/husqvarna-endschalldaempfer-vormontiert-auspuff-svartpilen-801/3209401616-306-1829

    Any tail tidy updates

    What is the problem with the tire; and will you keep the stock indicators? Compared to the stock exhaust the Akrapovic is slightly offset to the side; that helps with the high exhaust and the indicator. Here two pics; it's the adapted Duke 390 (2017-2023) tail tidy with the stock exhaust and...

    Turn signals

    I testfitted the sequential KTM indicators with the same result; hyper flashing and error code. The stock 801 indicators are 2,5 watt; the sequential KTM indicators are 4 watt. If the wattage of the indicators is higher, a resistor will not work. Afterwards I tested some Motoism indicators...

    "Tweaked" 801 stock muffler

    801 side-pannier-rack

    5mm will also work fine. Here a pic of a TomTom mount that I also fabricated from 5mm aluminum; the angle is also 90°; and I've bent it also without heat.

    801 side-pannier-rack

    I did it with a vice and some tools at the workbench, but without heat. On the pics the bracket is made from 3mm aluminum; it works fine with the lightweight rain gear in the pannier, but for some a tad heavier stuff I would use 4-5mm aluminum instead.

    801 side-pannier-rack

    4-5mm Aluminum is fine to fabricate the bracket; 2mm is too flimsy.

    "Tweaked" 801 stock muffler

    I do like it; even with the cone muffler; it reminds me of the Termignoni exhaust at my XR1200 with the added custom made Cone-Engineering muffler. (y)
