I will not be fitting it for at least a couple of months. There is a good video on youtube. Sorry I am old and do not know how to put links in. Just search ‘Arrow pro race on Vitpilen’ vid is by Voshkof? Basically that vid is what made me decide to go with the Arrow, with the Db killer out it is...

I have been looking at going tubeless just recently. The only advantage would be being able to fix in the wild with a tubeless repair kit. Obviously you can with the right tools on board remove the wheel, tyre, tube and repair it the replace it all roadside, but I am using my Svart for fun. I...

Sorry forgot to add. Rider sag is roughly 26%.

No travel will stay the same. The length of travel is determined by the length of the damper rod. I measured my travel by removing the spring and re-assembling the fork and measuring between max and minimum stroke. This is 142mm, so the damper rod in our bikes is 142mm, the KTM Adv has a damper...

I have also received my fuelx lite. and more importantly Arrow in Italy finished making my slip on. I went for brushed stainless over the black as if the black coating gets scratched I think they look rough. I will be fitting this when I’ve finished running my bike in, hopefully very...

Slight update, I felt the forks were struggling with my 95kg. Especially under heavy braking where the front would dive drastically. So, after lots of research ( including numerous emails to WP UK, which ended in an answer of ‘we have nothing for you’ ) I finally found some springs that fit...

Here in the UK eBay sell these. I have not checked the thread size on the bike but once you know that finding adjusting screws shouldn’t be too difficult.

I believe the entry level WP apex ( without compression and rebound adjusters ) had no red plastic rings ( like the duke 390 ones ) but the fully adjustable Apex ( like on the newest duke 390 ) does have them. I would not worry if you have removed them already. Mine are now in the bin, along...

They are to protect the upper tubes from the sliding lower leg covers, like the 701 supermoto

Really neat work there. So cool.

I cannot believe the price in general for these bikes. They are such great value, I just wish the bolts and threads were a bit better. Yes the TFT from the new one looks nice but having come from analog dials on previous bikes I do not think I am missing anything with the current LCD on my...

Acerbis ‘vision’ hanguards came out in around 2013 so may not be available anymore.

Just seen the price of a brand new 2023 vitpilen 401 at dealers near me. I paid £5000 for my Svart back in September they are down to £4300 now. That is what a new model coming out soon does for winter prices here in the UK.

Used the same bolt, it is stepped so not an easy replace. When you start undo the nut on the bottom of the bolt before trying to undo the bolt or you will strip the thread from the lever housing. It is easier if you remove the clutch micro switch also as the lever will not come off with it in...

That is a good finish, does the paint feel hard? VHT from years ago always seemed to stay soft and scratch easy, probably better stuff now though.

I will try a socket allen bit. I have tried a long bolt screwed in and whacking it with a hammer but it did not move, I do not want to go too mad as most parts seem to be be quite soft metal and fragile.

Sorry if this has been asked before, I did a search on here but nothing came up. My bar end inserts (the threaded bits inside the bar that the weights screw into) look like they are glued in. I thought they would come out quite easy but they are not moving, either inwards or out. Does anyone...

A 240z, even better than a porshe. Sorry i saw the windscreen angle and the tiny rear window…. You sir have good taste in vehicles. The link to the service manual is in the top forum on here. Everything Husqvarna motorcycles, road and off road. It is the 12th thread down. Sorry I’m not good on...

The Svartpilen I took on test ride had 10 milles on the clock and neutral was vert hard to get from first but easier from second, try a gentle tap down. I am very lucky as the one I actually bought is a breeze to get neutral from first or second. Not that I am bragging. Is that a blurry Porsche...

Chain was from SPORTSBIKESHOP here in the UK, I’m not sure if they post to you but it is a DID heavy duty 520 VXGB 112links, mine came with rivet link plus an old clip style link and a little sachet of lube for the link ‘x’rings. I have used rivet link as I already had the tool. £72 for the...
