Mine does that too, I was under the impression it is normal... maybe I will order a new one... should be easy enough to change out.

🤷‍♀️ I guess you could see if the part number can be read from the brake you have on now and google it for the fitment... when its the same as duke / rc 390 then you know.

The pads I use are the ones you can buy from Husqvarna (KTM) dealership / parts store; theyre not listed in the Brembo aftermarket catalog. They say Brembo on them with a KTM part number, similar to the Galfer rotor from KTM which has both Galfer and KTM lasered on it. To your front, the rotor...

A bit tough to say... the big single can get really thirsty when it gets throttled. Probably best to test it gradually on your own cause so many factors at play (chain lube, tire pressure, etc.) The lady at rider magazine writes that 160 miles is possible...

I now use the KTM/Brembo sintered ones. Seems to give the right feel for my preference when in combination with the wave rotor.

Seeing those graphs makes me want to do more dyno runs 🙈🙈🙈

Brake light switch?

Emmisions standards are ever changing. The relocation clearly is to improve emissions.

Maybe they confused the pink/purple for the red? I could see using pink/purple on that sort of stuff like turn signals or something.

I have seen that there is one for the 701 / 690, the kit comes with a special slave cylinder (with a screw in it to adjust free play gain) Was rather expensive and I havent felt it to be as necessary on the bigger motor as it was on the 401.

Normally the seat width on the svartpilen 701 and the vitpilen 701 is different, due to the number plate plastic on the svartpilen. So, having not tested it myself, would assume that it wont fit unless the number plate piece is removed.

Would be nice if they only wait because it must be the 1001 based in the new 990 "the sniper" duke.

To be sure, you have a charger specially designed for that type of lithium battery, the battery is disconnected while charging, and the positive terminal (red) is connected first after charging.

The stock antifreeze isnt the best on the 401... and I would recommend checking the radiator hoses regularly for wear, where they touch the engine block especially. (Dont ask me how I know :sneaky:)

I would recommend leaving the cat and chamber installed. When the performance with the stubby is lower than desired, I would recommend a pipe like this: Thread 'Super Cheap (Rainy Day) Project' https://hqvadventure.com/forum/threads/super-cheap-rainy-day-project.355/

Mine put out 63nm @4600rpm and max 75nm @6800. Only Akro pipe, stock airbox and filter. (But thats why everyone buys 800 dollar Akro pipe, 5% power and absolutely no increase to volume) Edit: would expect the same from a Duc Pipe except with more loudness

Other options for filters are... Hiflo: HF155 HF651 Or K&N: KN155 KN651

I have used a Hot Cams 10mm Shim Kit, and a Moose 10mm shim Kit; they both work. Next time I get one it will probably be a Moose one again. Normally any 10mm shim kit should work.

I think the question of motor must be simple strategy question, does KTM choose to sell Made in China or Made in Austria for this model.

Finally got the chance to take the Conti's out, and scrapped the pegs for the first time on this bike...
