    Handlebar Position

    I would try it to see if you like it, that's a half a beer job.

    I thought about trimming the side stand, a friend did it on his Husky TE250, and it came out great. On the handguards, thanks for the recommendation. I have a set of Barkbusters on the way.

    790 duke

    I like the 401, is a great bike with plenty of power for the city and extremely fun on tight mountain roads. However I do agree that I would love a Vit or Svart with the 890 engine.

    Well, that is a big question I have. I've read a lot about Supermoto conversions, which would use two 17" wheels. However I would prefer to keep the cost down and just get new tires. I can get the Pirelli Scorpion Rally STR that come with the Norden or the Continental Trail Attack 3. At least...

    Installed a Perun rear rack this weekend. Now I can carry some tools and a rag, etc. Very well made rack and easy installation.

    Extreme downpour after that photo. I need new tires that perform better on the wet, the rear one slid a couple of times.

    Warp9 kickstand installed and it work great: Putting back the spring was a pain in the ass... I need more tools. But now I can put the kickstand while seated no the bike. I don't think the bike is leaning too much, but will compare with my friend's KTM SMC R this Sunday. Other aesthetic mods:

    Svartpilen 401 rear seat attachment/clamping?

    My 701 Enduro is similar. Hooks on something at the front, then you push down in the rear and it locks.

    My friend runs his KTM 690 SMC R (supermoto) with the same Wings exhaust, but no dB killer. A bit louder than mine and you get burbles, cracks, etc. Sounds great IMO. I will need to try that 😈

    Its fine, no burbles, very civilized. I wouldn't mind if it was louder, I'm very pleased with it. The Leo Vince on my Svart is louder. Not digging the Akra?

    Last Saturday I was finally able to get a lift so decided to install the Kouba link, with the help my 12 year old son (And he did help! Always good to have it away from the Xbox for a couple of hours). Installation is pretty straightforward, but the large nut (to the rear of the link) was a...

    Finally had my first proper ride on the 701 E yesterday. I had so much fun with the bike, there's always torque with this engine, quickshifter is awesome and the increased in seat height (vs. the Svart) wasn't an issue . I was concerned that I would not have as much fun with the 701 on the...
